Dan Noonan and "Tillie" 1914

Scan10914, originally uploaded by bucklesw1. Letter from Bill Woodcock to Homer Walton 5-30-60. "John Robinson's "Tillie" was an old elephant when she died but nothing like 120 years old. They don't live that long. Also she died the winter of 1931-32. I took Curley Noonan's place and worked these bulls the last half of the 1931 season. Noonan had a stroke which left him incapacitated, he died in 1933. After I left, George (Red Cap) Thompson worked the Robinson act as long as it existed."
