Madam Fran
According to Mesa County Oral History Project interviewee Mary Plaisted, Fran was the madam of a higher end brothel in a nice part of town (nicer than Grand Junction’s red-light district in any case). She also owned a double decker horse-drawn carriage in which beautifully dressed prostitutes rode. The carriage and its occupants probably served as advertising for the brothel. It may also be the same carriage that Mary Agnes (Robinson) Cox refers to in her oral history interview. According to Cox, just such a carriage rode around the field between innings at a baseball game in Lincoln Park when she was a child in (circa 1915). She was told by her father that the women in the carriage were prostitutes for a brothel trying to drum up business.
