This picture taken on the ill fated 1916 tour when Arzy was talked into putting the show on rails by William P. Hall. To answer your question about why Arzy resented my father's approach toward his youngest daughter, it wasn't dislike in fact he probably didn't even remember what he looked like. Aside from being family members these young ladies were very important to the show, they probably appeared through half the performance and no doubt did a lot of work helping put up and tear down the show. Not only Arzy but four husky brothers to keep watch over them. Aunt Nellie was the exception tho, legend has it she ran off with the band leader and returned a changed person, forsook performing and took over the concessions. She later married William Hoogewaning a wealthy business man in Ottumwa, Iowa who died leaving her a wealthy widow and owner of one of Ottumwa's principal strucutes, The Municipal Building.
