Note: Maude was given money to live on by Arthur and Hart North from their share of the inheritance when George and Jennie died in California within six months of each other, both having had strokes. She went to Italy and was there when World War I broke out. She volunteered for the International Red Cross, assisting the wounded. One of the soldiers was Francisco Menotti. Maude owned a small cottage in Zoagli on the Italian Riviera near Rapallo. After WWI there was a literary colony in Rapallo, including Ezra Pound, Sir Basil Bunting, and Sam Benelli an Italian poet. Maude willed the house to the Menottis.
