- ↑ Family tradition says that Helen and Margaret died from eating tainted ice cream, and that the family had just returned from the funeral of one to find the other one dead. There was, in fact, a typhoid epidemic traced to a dairy, and all of the people who died were on the delivery route. The Twentieth Century Magazine (Vol 3 [1911], p. 178) speaks of "a recent typhoid epidemic in Wilkes-Barre, Pa.," which was "traced to a certain dairy."
