Alma Rubens(1897-1931)

Following her untimely death, she was interred in a mausoleum at Mountain View Cemetery in Fresno, California.

[in her last interview in the Los Angeles Examiner] As long as my money held out I could get drugs. I was afraid to tell my mother, my best friends. My only desire was to get drugs and take them in secrecy. If only I could get on my knees before the police or before a judge and beg them to make stiffer laws so that men will refuse to take any dirty dollars from the murderers who sell this poison and who escape punishment when caught by buying their way out.
