Sidebar to the shooting of Richard Clifford "Dick" Holbrook in Seattle's University District. Calls his mother Jessie a widow, the earliest record to do so. Full transcription in Molata: Addendum to the Local Context Dossier, Part Four.

The key line: "Mrs. Holbrook is a widow and she has all of a mother's pride for her 20-year-old son, 'Dick,' as she calls him." Whether Jessie said so, or the reporter assumed it, is not known. Her husband was then alive at Pollock, South Dakota, with his second family.
