The end notes say, "As for her correct age, the IRS had to rely on the sworn testimony she gave during the murder trial that she was born during 1884 to decide the issue of her receiving Social Security. But Evelyn was never quite sure if that was the correct year and always believed, as she wrote in a number of letters, that she was born in 1885 (which I also believe, given the furor over her turning 18 in December 1903, referred to in various accounts of events)." Uburu gives Nesbit's age at various places in her book (e.g., in the description of her experience in Europe in 1903), but this is sometimes inconsistent with the 1884 birth date. 467: 1151:, or what in that era was referred to as a "brainstorm". Acutely conscious that her own family had a history of hereditary insanity, and after years of protecting her son's hidden life, Mrs. Thaw feared his past would be dragged out into the open, ripe for public scrutiny. She proceeded to hire a team of doctors, at a cost of some $ 500,000, to substantiate that her son's act of homicide constituted a single aberrant act.

Harry was a madman but they will prove it nicely". 444: 782:. In 1902, a romance blossomed between Nesbit and Barrymore, then 21, close to her own age. Barrymore was witty and fun-loving, and Nesbit became smitten with him. After an evening out, the couple often returned to his apartment, staying until the early-morning hours. Barrymore was casually pursuing a career as illustrator and cartoonist. Although he showed some promise in his chosen field, his salary was small and he behaved irresponsibly with the family money. Both White and Nesbit's mother considered him an unsuitable match for Nesbit, and both were greatly displeased when they found out about the relationship. 1220: 941: 372:. Nesbit's younger brother Howard was often sent to live with friends or relatives for periods of time. Nesbit's mother was eventually given money to rent a house to use as her own boardinghouse, securing a source of income. She sometimes assigned young Evelyn (aged about 12) to the duty of collecting the rent from boarders. "Mamma was always worried about the rent," Nesbit later recalled. "t was too hard a thing for her to actually ask for every week, and it never went smoothly." Nesbit's mother lacked the temperament or savvy to run a boardinghouse, and the venture failed. 733: 3772: 1339: 1620: 1355:, drawing an overall audience of 7,400 at the venue, turning away hundreds.

The work was lucrative. With Feder, Nesbit earned $ 5 for a half-day shoot and $ 10 for a full day – equivalent to $ 301 in 2023. Eventually, the fees she earned from her modeling career exceeded the combined income which her family had earned at Wanamaker's.
