About the Item
Story illustration for “The Flower of the Flock” by Jay Gelzer for Cosmopolitan, published August 1921, pages 74-75
The Post describes the tale as “The story of a Kentucky mountain mother and the price she paid that her son might find the romance she had been denied.”
The full caption reads: “Her silent fear hurt David unendurably, and inadequately he would try to comfort her. ‘I hate Lem,’ Essie would sob despairingly. ‘I’ve hated him ever since he whupped my puppy ter death for hollerin’ nights.’”
