Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Similar photograph appears with the article, "Two Testify in Baby Case," Los Angeles Times, 25 Jan 1936: 3. Helen Babington LaCour has been accused of being an unfit mother by her former friend and roommate Josephine Seymor. Helen's daughter, a baby girl of eleven months, is being taken care of by Dr. Warren V. Traylor and his wife, who took the baby from a children's home for adoption. However, Ms. LaCour declares she never intended to relinquish her maternal rights. The negative sleeve identified this as Josephine Seymour but the newspaper identifies her Mrs. Traylor. Text from negative sleeve: 3640 - Josephine Seymour Teacher of Modeling [stamped:] Feb 13 1936 Handwritten on negative: Josephine Seymour Teacher of Modeling
