The courtship, Tabor's divorce from his wife Augusta and subsequent marriage to Baby Doe, scandalized America from the boom town of Leadville to Washington D.C. Society in Colorado and Washington turned its back on her, but she continued to help her husband spend his millions in extravagant living. The Silver Panic of 1893 wiped out Tabor fortunes, but Baby Doe - to the amazement of those who earlier called her a gold digger - stood by her husband, selling her lavish possessions to pay his debts. He died April 10, 1899. After that, she lived in abject poverty at the Matchless mine in Leadville, until her death on or about March 6, 1935. True to a legendary promise to her beloved husband, she clung to the mine at all costs.
