Dluznieski Fri, 03 Sep 2010 17:29:13 +0000 http:/?page_id=2#comment-605 Mike, thanks for the referral. enjoyed chatting with you at the farmers market, and found this aspect of literature/history and celebrity to be very intriguing. one ambiguous line in this entry: was friend or lover to the outstanding men of any time: Did you mean of her time? as she couldn't really have lovers before she was born or after she died. or did you mean men who would be considered outstanding in any time? :) Teri Mike,

thanks for the referral. enjoyed chatting with you at the farmers market, and found this aspect of literature/history and celebrity to be very intriguing.

one ambiguous line in this entry:
was friend or lover to the outstanding men of any time:

Did you mean of her time? as she couldn’t really have lovers before she was born or after she died.

or did you mean men who would be considered outstanding in any time?

:)

Cub reporter Mark Twain wrote of Adah’s effect on the Gold Coast: “The whole constellation of the Great Menken came flaming out of the heavens like a vast spray of gasjets, and shed a glory abroad over the universe as it fell.” Adah reigned over San Francisco and Virginia City, Nevada, fabulously rich from the mines, until she sailed for New York and afterward London in April 1864. She was accompanied by a handsome gambler and Confederate spy, Paul Barkley. Adah had fallen in love again with a macho daring man. Newell, on the same ship, was sent into exile, and he and Adah were legally divorced the next year. Newell led a lonely, heartbroken life thereafter, and died in New York in 1905.
