Fred J. Mack Circus 1955 #3

Frankie Lou Woods with "Jessie" owned by R.A. Miller. This was John Cuneo's first elephant and trained by Joe Frisco Sr. she was later with Hoxie Bros. Circus and finally with George Carden. She must be about 60 now. Frankie Lou was with Kelly-Miller for many years, in fact I remember a story Blackie Woods used to tell that after one of their early seasons, the Millers were short on the final pay day. Blackie said that over the following winter he would a receive a letter from Obert with a few dollars in cash until the full amount was paid, $18.
