You know, she felt awful sorry for Lee, because he never knew his father. He was born after his father died, and he was his baby, and she always sort of felt sorry for Lee for that reason, I think, and sort of leaned toward Lee. She felt sorry for Lee because he never knew his father, I think, just as any mother would.
Mr. Jenner. Now, we have information that from sometime in 1939 to 1941, she resided on Alvar Street in New Orleans; does that square with your recollection?
Mrs. Evans. Well, Alvar, that was where she had her home, wasn't it, on Alvar?
Mr. Jenner. Yes.
Mrs. Evans. I was told it was in that subdivision.
Mr. Jenner. And do you recall her selling that house?
Mrs. Evans. No; she told me she sold it, but I wasn't too friendly with her at the time, and I didn't know anything about that. I was working, and I didn't play cards then, you see.
She was a friend of a friend of mine actually, that I played cards with, and I wasn't too friendly with the girl at first, but only through cards, but at the time I was sorry for her when I first learned what her husband had done to her, but later on I lost contact with her all the way up till just about the time she went to Texas, or maybe it was about a year before she went to Texas. It's hard to recall those dates, to tell what year this happened and what year that happened.
Mr. Jenner. That would have been around 1945, or 1944, somewhere in there?
Mrs. Evans. Yes; along in there.
