Frances Joseph Flynn (1864-?)
General Mite
Flynn was quite small indeed. He is reported to have reached a height of 22 inches and a total weight of 9 pounds. He was often paired with Lucia Zarate. The two were married in what is believed to be a publicity stunt in 1885. He apparently proposed after Zarate flew into a tirade over a woman giving Mite a caramel. The pair made up and got hitched. Remember ladies, a caramel is never JUST a caramel.
