The Trail Boss

Posted By on August 26, 2008

This man was JE’s right hand man for many years. He was in charge of putting up and taking down the Big Top, herding the animals over the road and protecting them from any danger. You could call him an “outrider” as well as a “trail boss.” He was not to be trifled with as he carried an 8 gage greener shotgun.
The white mule did not perform in the show.
