Virginia Elephant Hunt Ends In Lone Capture At Bailey's Corners
Pawnee Bill's expedition chased two runaway elephants through Virginia near Leesburg and Alexandria. After conflicting reports, Mexican Joe lassoed the elephant at Bailey's Corners, guiding it through cornfields and wire fence to Luna Park. The chase, described as Virginia's first cowboy elephant hunt, drew crowds and ended with the elephant captive and the show moving on.
