Barnum. James Anthony Bailey for ten years has been Mr. Barnum's partner. He can, without exaggeration, be called the creator of the modern circus. He has lifted the circus to a standard that renders almost ridiculous the laws that once were so necessary for its regulation.{{cite news}}: Pemeliharaan CS1: Tanggal diterjemahkan otomatis (link)
