Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Quiet home: Rosa Becker died in the bedroom of this farmhouse in Franklin Centre, Que. She had worked there for 11 years as a $240-a-month housekeeper. She had never seen any of the $150,000 she won in a precedent-setting legal battle with her common-law husband of 18 years before she took her own life. There was no money for her funeral.
