[3][4] Beginning in 1875 he performed with the Sells Brothers Circus that was based out of Columbus, Ohio.

His last will and testament arranged for his minstrel show to be bequeathed to his brother, Joseph E. Hatfield, and to Edward Conard, a relative.

His estate was valued at $150,000 (equivalent to $2,562,313 in 2023) and he requested that the minstrel show continue to be operated.

[3] Many printed advertisements for his shows remain in existence, including at the Library of Congress.
