Hi Folks, This story has connections to the Gepps Cross Hotel. The Elephant House is still standing, an unusual looking but attractive building, that is easily seen from the Main North Road. I hope it is preserved I remember reading that the elephant won several competitions working against horse and bullock teams. http://www.playford.sa.gov.au/elephant If you do a search you will find more information about Jumbo/Tommy.
