The grave site of Alice "Allie" Hicks (b. 1853 - d. 1900) at the Odd Fellows Cemetery.
Allie was the wife of Judge Charles Payne Hicks (b. 1856 - d. 1929), who adopted Violet "Baby Bell" Hicks, a baby left on a bar counter on Whiskey Row. Violet Hicks' adoption story served as the basis for the legend of Chance Cobweb Hall, a baby won in a gambling game after being abandoned atop a bar counter of a Whiskey Row saloon.
