Abstract: When the Tilt-a-Whirl ran over my sister's foot, Goldie decided it was time to sell the elephants, not that it was completely her decision. Goldie's father, Martin Lee (the name was changed from Lein during his parents' emigration from Nordfjord, Norway), was the primary owner of the Howard Amusement Co., a traveling carnival with rides, games of chance, sideshows, chimpanzees, and two elephants. Roger Schramm worked as a roustabout at the company, where he met Goldie Lee, leading to their marriage on January 31, 1935, in Howard, SD.
