| "As I rode down the street toward the pavilion, a familiar sound smote upon my ears and carried me back to ye olden times. It was a megaphone voice repeating the name "Lorita" "Lorita" - with a trill on the "r" that became so familiar to the ears of Phoenix a few years ago. It was the same wonderful armless woman, the same "spieler" and his Chinese gong resounded up and down West street just as it used to do on Washington Street." - ( in re to an appearance in Cloverdale, California); [Phoenix] Arizona Republican 1906 |
