# An Iowa Giantess. the giantess who travels with the international circus in an English production of huge corporosity and muscle is an Iowa female. She is posted on the bills as Mrs. Charlotte Moxley. If you were to send her a letter, she would tell you to address it to “Miss Angeline Teeples, Baldwin, Jackson county, Iowa.” She is the owner of over 2,000 acres of Iowa soil, much of which is in good farms. She is 29 years old, 6 feet 2 1/2 inches high, 5 feet 6 inches around the waist, weighs 723 poinds and is not in any sense a fat woman. She is huge on the muscle, and exhibits
wonderful power of strength. She is also in the matrimonial market, but the man who marries her may expect to play “second fiddle.”
