 Pharyngula::White lady
She is a white mutant, and so lacks the normal red pigment in her eyes.
Morgan's wife, Lilian, who was fascinated by his work and who later (after their children were out of the house and busy in school) made important contributions in the laboratory, was pregnant that year; and long afterward the birth of the new baby became mingled in the family history with the arrival of the mutant.
