Notes for Maurice Aloyousis LABORDE

Maurice LaBorde owned a thoroughbred race horse and was a successful
jockey who won a major race, according to newspaper accounts at the
time. Someone robbed him, stole his horse, and beat him so severely that
his mental faculties were destroyed. A telegraph notified Edna LaBorde
that Maurice was being sent home by train. He arrived alone and mentally
confused at the train depot in Mansura with a note pinned to his shirt
and addressed to his mother. This required his being cared for the rest
of his life.
