From Cedar Lake to the US Army Corps of Engineers Kiamichi Campground at Lake Hugo. We drove into Hugo, and made a stop at Mt. Olivet Cemetery to see the Showmen's Rest section. From the TravelOK.com web site: Mount Olivet Cemetery in Hugo is the final resting place for rodeo greats Freckles Brown, Lane Frost, Todd Watley and L. Hammock. Ed Ansley, better known as Buster Brown, and William H. Darrough, the founder of Hugo, are also buried here. Because Hugo has been a wintering home for several circuses, a special area called Showmen's Rest features unique headstones and gravesites for circus performers and owners.
