Madame Vespucci

Madame Vespucci


She came from Italy and caught the eye of many powerful men in the United States.  But according to legend, she was won in a card game and settled down with the winner. Her ghost is still at the home, now a museum of a great Western artist.  And her ghost might be trying to set the record straight.
