Sella Floto Circus to Play May 30 in Pendleton
Advance man Doc Waddell at Hotel St George outlines a Sells Floto circus stop on Saturday May 30 with a street parade and two performances. The act, praised for a successful Pacific coast tour, plans a patriotic Decoration Day program with a elephant named General Grant and a minister aboard. The show aligns with Grand Army of the Republic ceremonies and features Yankee Doodle music and flowers for soldiers’ graves. A Pendleton society intrigue centers on a mysterious Pendleton girl rumored in the circus life.
