Excerpt from Come Into My Parlor: A Biography of the Aristocratic Everleigh Sisters of Chicago
Men of the world knew the Everleigh Sisters and boasted of exploits in their resort. But most of the boasting was done in the backroom of the corner saloon - to the boys. It cost me a hundred smackers and what did. I get? Grandpa would say. The jolly crowd laughed and some wisecracker would reply: If you only spent a hundred you were lucky you got a kiss. Those were the happy hours. Whatever became of those two sisters? Became a common query.
