#2 "Peggy"

John Herriott and  "Eva".
Jim Alexander told me her original name at the St. Louis Zoo but I forget.....the old brain cells are fading fast!

I believe Peggy Williams

told the story of being

taught to mount a bull

by Gunther & it was Eva

on the Red Show back then

Didn't you get her from

Gunther & rename her Peggy

I plan on attending the "lunch bunch" tomorrow but for those who can't make it Peggy's name was either Pearl or Florence. Pearl was Zoo elephant trainer's wife and Florence was her sister. (I heard Mrs. Smith's maiden name was Onion. If true they probably should have named her sister Bermuda or Vidalia.) Floyd told me Tony Smaha Sr. picked them up at the Zoo and transported them back to Baraboo.

It also could have been

Spring Green or Sweet
