Babe Woodcock and the good Colonel were still living in Lancaster, MO. after Billy Hall's death in 1932. Fortunately for us, she took several photographs over the years including these next few. This first one is sitting on one of Billy Hall's spur tracks. The next two were taken in December of 1934 after the Robbins Bros. Circus equipment which had been sitting idle for almost 3 years, was sold to Jess Adkins and Zach Terrell to form the nucleus of the new Cole Bros. Circus.

Bob: Let us not forgt that there was a lot of former Christy Bros equipment on the new Cole show as well as some pieces from the Ranch Show.
Of course elephants came from the former Ranch and Robbins herds as well as from other sources.
