Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Circus Memoirs My father, with my mother, came to this great and wonderful continent in 1842, landing at Quebec, Canada, my eldest brother, William, being born there. The family removed to Boston in 1845, where my father, James Haslam Middleton, was employed in the Charlestown Navy Yard. There we lived in sight of Bunker Hill for ten years. During this time three children were born, George, James Haslam and Charles. My father then succumbed to the western fever and with his little family, started for Indiana. I was a youngster, but well do I recall the boat and its lights, and the excitement of being on the water from Cincinnati, Ohio, to Madison, Indiana, our objective point. As we were leaving the boat I looked back and exclaimed in delight, "Mother, the boat has an upstairs!" We settled at Madison, Indiana, which in those days was a wide awake, thriving town, located on the Ohio river, surrounded by beautiful and attractive scenery.
