On Good Friday night, April 7th, Miss Mattie Jackson’s horse during the Hurdle Race, ran too close to a pillar at the Madison Avenue corner, and striking her foot, she was violently thrown to the ground insensible. On being quickly picked up and carried to the office, it was found she had broken her right leg five inches above the knee. This was the first accident of the season, and the sympathies of the company were tendered the young lady in her misfortune.
On Sunday morning, April 9th, the long expected, best advertised, new sensation, the Mastodon Elephant Jumbo, arrived from London on the steamship Assyrian Monarch. It was early in the morning when the steamer was moored to Pier 1, North River, but it took until twelve o’clock at night to get Jumbo on terra firms. Eight horses were on hand and hitched to the cage on wheels; commenced their march up Broadway. The rain was pouring in torrents and the management as well as the large delegation of employees who on foot escorted the new visitor will not soon forget the drenching they received.
Monday, April 10th. Jumbo was first introduced to the American public and became a part of the Great Show, the talk of all New York and the sensation of the day.
Thursday, April 13th. James Higbie, Tom King and Charles Bernard, with the Calliope, Bell Wagon and Steam Organ started for Philadelphia to oppose Forepaugh and prepare the way for the Big Show.
April 17. Bob. Flemming, Jockey, was thrown from his horse during the flat race, sustaining injuries which placed him on the retired list for a short period. Same night the old time elephant horse used by George Arstingstall had his shoulder-blade broken in Indian life.
April 22d. Saturday night closed the longest and most successful season ever known in New York, lasting six weeks.
Monday, April 24th, Philadelphia, Pa., 95 miles. Hotels: Columbia, Great Western, Central Avenue.
Arrived 10 o’clock Sunday morning. The special car built for Jumbo could not stand the strain of his enormous weight and the running gear gave way on arrival. This was repaired during the week. Opened Monday afternoon with a complimentary performance for the benefit of the 1st Infantry Regiment’s new armory fund. The gross receipts amounting $3,987 was presented to them. Business in the evening opened far beyond expectations and continued so. Notwithstanding rain on Thursday and Friday evenings, thousands were turned away unable to gain admittance. On Thursday afternoon during the ladies hurdle race, Miss Tillie Leona fell at the hurdle her horse also going down and although stunned at the time, was able to appear again in the evening. Major Atom closed his season Saturday night. Fred Mendoza who had remained in New York owing to illness, now rejoined the show.

Weather was beautiful; turned away thousands; in the afternoon the crowd was very troublesome and hard to seat; they jostled each other until some of the worst characters caused the fall of a large pole used for the high wire act. It fell and struck two persons, slightly injuring them. It was so late that it was thought best to give no afternoon concert. The Indian side show band all left, still good business was done, with the music furnished by Prof. Sackett and Henshaw.

Clear day, but very hot. Andy Brehm, who had been left back sick in Brooklyn, rejoined the show.
Whimsical Walker and a friend entered a saloon to enjoy themselves a little. Whether by accident or otherwise deponent knoweth not, but suffice to say that Mr. Walker put his body through a large pain of glass in the saloon door. Of course the proprietor insisted upon payment, but Whimsical as loudly protested. Finding things were getting serious he became violently seized with one of his inimitable ring fits. The proprietor ran for a doctor, somebody else for a policeman and soon a crowd of country men gathered around, all eager to help the sick man. He came to at last and then the proprietor whose heart had not yet softened, again began to push his claim. Another fit was the result; another recovery; another petition from the proprietor and another fit; until the crowd becoming so great Mr. Saloon keeper was well satisfied to throw Whimsical in the street and let his claim for the broken glass go by default.
Friday, June 9th, Norwich, Conn., 17 miles. Hotels” Union Square and American. Beautiful weather. The lot was over two miles from town and in a poor place. Mlle. Zeo goes in the ladies flat race for the first time.
