Yeah, I was thinking of the dancer, who was involved, IIRC, in all
manner of late nineteenth-century scandal, but probably fairly tame
by modern standards. (Britney Spears would probably have been burnt
at the stake, just to show these people weren't all bad.) I STR there
being some business association between Little Egypt and P.T. Barnum,
but can find no evidence of it on the Web. Such as it is, as a
resource...
