| Horace Schmidlapp, Carole's fourth and last husband, purchased this house 
    on the boundary between Brentwood and Pacific Palisades for her in March, 
    1947. It was here that Carole was found dead on July 5, 1948 of an overdose 
    of Seconal.

    In December, 1947, Screen Guide published an article entitled "Christmas at 
    Carole's" with pictures of a "Christmas party" given around the 1465 
    swimming pool in July or August. Carole was in England from August 1947 to 
    March 1948. (Carole is on the grass in the foreground.) |
