Horace Tabor Teacher Resource Teacher Resource Set Title Horace Austin Warner Tabor Developed by CH/TPS Colorado Grade Level 4-10 Essential Question The endeavors of the early settlers in Colorado did much to contribute to the development of the state. How did the life of Horace Tabor shape Colorado? Contextual Paragraph Known as the “Silver King,” H.A.W. Tabor arrived in Colorado with his first wife Augusta in search of silver – a smalltime prospector. Within 20 years of his arrival he was one of the wealthiest men in Colorado. Tabor was one of the early pioneers who shaped the built environment of Colorado with development in both Leadville and Denver. Not only an entrepreneur he was involved in politics, serving as the “three month” senator. Tabor was one who garnered tremendous attention not only for his economic and political impact on the state, but as a larger-than-life personality. At the heart of much of this attention were his divorce of Augusta and marriage to Elizabeth “Baby Doe” Tabor and their lavish lifestyle. Despite his many accomplishments and social standing, Tabor was not immune to the economic ups and downs of the era. When Congress repealed the Sherman Silver Purchase Act in 1893, Tabor lost his fortune and ended his life much as he began life in Colorado working in the mines. 1 Teacher Resource Set Resource Set Elizabeth (McCourt) American court Residence of H.A.

  • 'Baby' Tabor - 'The Ballad of Baby Doe' - Includes Related Information
    This cloud had a silver lining: the Washington Opera has revived the improbable story of Horace and 'Baby' Tabor - 'The Ballad of Baby Doe' - includes related information Insight on the News, Feb 10, 1997 by T.L. Ponick No matter how hard he tried, luck always seemed to elude Horace Tabor, the central figure in a celebrated mining-town rags-to-riches saga. From before the Civil War to the boom times of the 1870s, Tabor prospected for gold and silver in the craggy mountains of Western Colorado without much to show for it. When, suddenly, he hit pay dirt, he became the biggest man in Leadville and one of the richest in Colorado. Tabor built an opera house, cast off his dour-looking wife, hitched himself to a colorful woman of dubious virtue named "Baby" Doe and spent money as of he owned the Denver mint -- only to die penniless at century's end, a victim of the nation's abandonment of freely coined silver, leaving his flamboyant wife in rags. Authentic legends of the West, Horace and Baby Doe Tabor and their times were brought to the stage in July 1956 by composer Douglas Moore and librettist John Latouche for the Central City Opera of Denver. The Ballad of Baby Doe was revised for its New York City Opera premiere in 1958, with Beverly Sirs starring in the difficult coloratura role of Baby. In January, the Washington Opera unveiled its production featuring soprano Elisabeth Comeaux and baritone Richard Stilwell, a Metropolitan Opera veteran, as the Tabors, with mezzo Phyllis Pancella as the spurned wife Augusta.

  • 1 Baby Doe Tabor Is a Timeless Figure in Colorado History
    Baby Doe Tabor: Colorado’s Legend “When Baby Doe first saw the mountains, she had an inexplicable feeling that her destiny was bound up in those distant granite fortresses.” 1 Baby Doe Tabor is a timeless figure in Colorado history. Her story has been committed to film, opera, and literature time and again. Although there are many parts that are the same in the various renditions of her story. There are three critical parts that are all perceived differently across time; her life in Central City prior to meeting Horace Tabor, her relationship and life with Horace, and her long and lonely vigil at the Matchless Mine in Leadville, Colorado after Horace’s death. These three are perceived differently largely based upon the fact that the authors craft their language so as to present the reader with different perspectives on the event. 1 Gordon Langley Hall, The Two Lives of Baby Doe (Philadelphia: Macrae Smith Co., 1962), 69. 1 Because of continual retelling Baby Doe’s story remains an integral part of Colorado’s history. What is it about her that makes her such an important and timeless figure? Why are authors and historians so fascinated with her? Her story begins simply enough. Elizabeth Bonduel Nellis McCourt was born in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Her official birth date has never been agreed upon, as the official records were destroyed in a fire when she was a teenager. She was christened on October 7, 1854 when she was estimated to be about 12 days old.2 She first arrived in Colorado in 1877 on the arm of her new husband Harvey Doe; they settled themselves in Central City to work some mining claims belonging to Harvey Doe Senior.
