Silver Dollar Tabor’s tragic death ends family romance
Silver Dollar Echo, daughter of Horace A. W. Tabor once famed as Midas of the Rockies, died in a Chicago apartment in a case initially thought foul play. Police later ruled accidental death from scalding water after alcohol and drug use were noted. Born in Leadville in 1883, she grew up in Denver society with the Tabor Grand Opera House circle, daughter of Willibeth McCourt Tabor, famed for lavish displays. The tale recalls the Tabors’ glittering fortune and social power during the 1880s and the family’s later decline.
