I was in the Clyde Beatty Cole Bros ticket wagon cutting up jackpots with Harry Hammond and Mari-jo Logan.
So I asked Mari-jo why did Freddy quit Kelly miller.
She said Freddy was not making any money.
She said we drove the show down the road and put it up. Performed and took it down.
Beatty Cole offered Freddy more money and he took it.
Freddy and his family was the best to us circus fans and he always knew us by name and the jackpots started.
What ever town he was in he knew every circus and carnival that played it.
Many great memories from one of the best in the circus.

Harry;
In all do respect. Joe McMahn is responsible for Freddy leaving Kelly-Miller and joining CBCB.
Joe went to work for the corp. and he persauded Freddy to come aboard.
