What did Frank Russell do when it became clear that audiences would not pay to hear Annie Taylor speak and
the two of them would not be getting rich?

Respuesta :

When he realized he was failing to accumulate wealth, he ran off with Anne Taylor's barrel, presumably to sell it or exhibit.

We can arrive at this answer according to the following information:

  • Frank Russell was Anne Taylor's manager when she decided to descend Niagara Falls inside a barrel.
  • This event received a lot of media attention and they thought they would get rich.
  • However, after that moment, Anne Taylor didn't make much money talking about this adventure.
  • When Russell realized they wouldn't get rich, he decided to steal the barrel Anne used and run away.

Anne hired many detectives to find Russell and her barrel. That barrel was found and Russell disappeared, without explaining what he intended to do with the barrel, but it is believed that he wanted to sell or exhibit.
