Marion Ellett Budd was a country printer who ranked with the best craftsmen in the printing industry. Known as "Most Easy," he came to Burlington on Sept. 1st, 1877. His Runt Park, as he called his place in Burlington, attracted thousands of curiosity seekers to see his fanciful creations in concrete and stone. Runt is the concrete dog in the center of this love triangle behind the castle. Thousands drove many miles to see this and the other works of art in Budd's Runt Park.
