It is now known• to be ettore than likely, for example, that the English poet, Charles Churchill, -was . the original of the picture long be- lieved to represent the American sol - eller of King Philip's war, Cole Benja- min Church.

The elephant, which was -then only about four feet high, was in the possession of some Arabs who sold him to an animal collector; who in turn sold him to the Jardin des = Plantes, in Paris.* In 1865 Jumbo was sold to the London. Zoological So- •iety, where he seen became a great favorite. Every day he was brought -out in the gardens and exercised with a load.of boys and girls on his back. At last it was rumored that he haa -.developed a bad temper, and his lteepers were afraid that he would -injure somebody. When P. T. Bar- num heard this he offered $10,000 tor Jumbo.
