Tusko #1 (From Buckles)



"Ned" was purchased by M.L. Clark from the Great Eastern Shows in 1903.
Seen here with his partner "Mena" arriving on the lot in the mid 1920's.

Just an interruption this morning. We have heard the sad news that our friend and great circus lady Netta MacMahon passed away yesterday morning after bought with big C. We all mourn her passing and express deepest sympathy to husband Ray, Hodgie and family members. Ray said she passed on quietly in her sleep. She was loved by all who knew her and had a fabulous career in a variety of exceptional endeavors. We knew her for some forty nyears and as of late she and Ray have been neighbors here in West Wind Village. A fall memorial will be hld at our and her favorite Showfolks club. We will mis and remember her to be sure. In deepest sympathy from myself, Mary Ruth and all us Herriotts.
