(Eleanor Dumont; A petite French Lady, famous and respected by the 
Miners of Bodie, Virginia City and various other Mining Camps. A 
gambler by profession, she lost her stake in Bodie and committed 
suicide.
From the Bodie Standard News, Oct. 9, 1880, a report of the incident 
was carried. "Last Monday, the dead body of a woman was found 
about 2 miles south of Bodie on the road leading to Bridgeport.
The body was identified as that of Madam Dumont, familiarly known 
as "Madam Mustache" in almost every mining camp from Utah and 
Idaho to California. She was a French woman, very quiet and
inoffensive, but with a very strong propensity for gambling. Her 
favorite game was "21" which she has dealt for many years.  With 
her dead body was discovered an empty poison vial which told the 
tale of suicide....For 21 years, she has been a familiar 
character to the shifting population of the mining camps.)
