" The home has extensive grounds, laid out in excellent taste and forms one of the pleasantest and most attractive residences in the city." (The Worcester of 1898). It has been said that Mr. Whittall built his stately Worcester residence across from the church to keep a watchful eye on who turned up and who did not for Sunday service.</span>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">The land currently known as Prospect Park was sold in 1912 to Matthew J. and Gertrude (Clarke) Whittall as a 100-acre parcel consisting of 70 separately owned pieces of property on top of Meetinghouse Hill. Matthew was an internationally known carpet manufacturer. The couple built a “great white Georgian summer estate,” which they named Juniper Hall, on the property, for $80,000. On top of Meetinghouse Hill (the highest point in Shrewsbury), with sprawling views of Lake Quinsigamond, the hills of Paxton and Rutland and even Mount Monadnock and Mount Wachusett, the estate boasted four fireplaces, a music room, a reflecting pool and a two-story reception hall. Along one side of the house was a huge sun porch overlooking a sea of elaborate and extensive formal gardens full of wild irises and wisteria and “picking flower” gardens. Because the gardens were open for public viewing, the estate became one of the premier show places of Worcester County, with people traveling from far away to see the flowers in bloom. Lilac week at Juniper Hall drew the greatest crowds of all.</span></div>

The reception hall had a ceiling extending to the second floor with a surrounding balcony. Also on the first level were a butler's pantry, music room, dining room, living room and breakfast room. There were four fireplaces, four bedrooms, and a large sitting room on the second floor. The sunporch, which looked out on formal gardens, covered nearly all of one side of the house.</span><br />

Juniper Hall became one of the show places of Worcester County, with its layout of the formal gardens, swimming pool, and the "picking flower" gardens. The grounds were famous, and familiar to many people, because the public was welcomed to visit and see the flowers in bloom. Lilac week at Juniper Hall was one of the season's major events for those who were interested in flowers.</span><br />

In his memory, Gertrude named the pergola in the gardens “The Garden of Sweet Remembrance.” On the fifth anniversary of Matthew's passing, Gertrude deeded Juniper Hall and all the real estate to the Grand Lodge of Masons of Massachusetts. Matthew had been a 33rd-degree mason. It was her wish that the house be used for the relief of suffering. Juniper Hall became known as the Masonic Hospital.</span></span><br />

Near the house is a charming little garden, enclosed with a hedge, designed by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martha_Brookes_Hutcheson" target="_blank">Mrs. Martha Brookes Hutcheson</a>, with a pool and primly trimmed </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">evergreens suggestive of England. The two great trees at the foot of the slope below the garden make a beautiful vista looking through the hedge from the house. On the opposite side of the house are the service buildings and the charming rock garden with its walks, designed by Mrs. Bacon herself. In front of the house, looking over the sloping lawn to the open field, there is on the left a little lake with natural planting, while on the right there are trees and berry bearing shrubs to attract the birds.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">No. 2. The aerial view of the Commodore Gould place on Long Island gives a very good idea of the house and surrounding topography with a wooded hillside back of the house. It shows well the road plan, service buildings, and great stretches of informal lawn, with groups of small planting that will eventually form vistas from the house.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">No. 5. The residence of Middleton S. Burrill at Jericho. Long Island. The house itself is well placed, on the brow of a hill with a background of natural planting, accentuated by a road flanked with clipped foliage. In the foreground is shown the front of the house with formal parterres and steps leading to a well clipped lawn. In the photograph the spotting of conical trees does not add to the beauty of the composition. This is much more evident in an aerial view than it would be on the ground.</span><br />

Allegedly there was a house of, well, if not ill repute, then at least of questionable repute in La Cañada sometime around the 1960s.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">My story comes from a local gentleman who had visited the place back then. I’ll keep him anonymous. Because of his fascination with electronics, I’ll call him “Sparky.”</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">Our story starts in 1929, when a fabulous home was built in the San Rafael Hills of Flintridge on Wendover Road above the Flintridge Hilton Hotel. “Las Casitas Del Paso” was a massive reproduction of a Pyrenees monastery. Faux crumbling walls, romantic balconies, cloisters and secret passageways gave the place an authentic air, as though it had been transported through time. But a secret bar that lowered from the ceiling placed it firmly in the Prohibition era. It sat on 42 beautifully landscaped acres perched on the highest hill above Flintridge, with incomparable views to the sea.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">In 1941, it was purchased by a wealthy hotel broker who had probably fallen in love with the estate when he brokered the sale of the Flintridge Hilton to the Catholic Church (today Sacred Heart Academy). After he died, his wife Lucille continued to live in the splendor of Las Casitas with her prize-winning Arabian stallion “Roagzah,” a massive Doberman named Derbemar von Ulbricht, and a large flock of expensive peacocks imported from India. The neighbors had issues with the peacocks, which filled the quiet night with their loud calls. In the 1950s, we find several articles in the L.A. Times about her neighborhood conflicts over the birds, even to the point of Lucille finding the severed head of one of her birds dropped in front of her gate. After several years of neighbor complaints, punctuated with much courtroom drama, a Pasadena judge ordered her to sell or destroy her valued birds.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">Perhaps it was this run-in with her neighbors and the legal system, or perhaps she was talked into it by some of the local men. Maybe she just fell on hard times and needed the money. But for whatever reason, local lore says that in the 1960s she opened her home up for “parties” for gentlemen with lovely ladies that she provided. We can’t be sure today if this was her cover for a prostitution business, but I think we might make some assumptions.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">This is where Sparky enters our story. Sparky was a HAM and shortwave radio enthusiast. According to Sparky, he was up in the San Rafaels looking for likely high points and peaks to broadcast from when another local radio enthusiast who knew about the establishment invited him up to meet Lucille. For the two young men the place was a paradise. Beautiful scantily clad girls were everywhere. The bar that lowered from the ceiling was still functional, there were gambling tables, and young women lounged in what was perhaps the first hot tub in the area. Also, the peacocks were back, perhaps due to Lucille’s influential connections. Sparky said that parties of men would call in a reservation, tell Lucille what they wanted for dinner, and how many girls to have on hand. After the group had dinner, the rest of the evening was theirs to spend how they wished in any of the many ornate rooms of the estate.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">Sparky really hit it off with Lucille as she was a radio enthusiast herself and had a wonderful shortwave setup. She also had set up her mountaintop estate for extra income as a huge ground antenna via several large “weathervanes” in order to transmit commercially without permits. Sparky garnered some special favors from Lucille, and still has photos he took of Lucille’s girls posing nude around his radio equipment.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">According to Sparky the operation didn’t last too long. Lucille finished out her life alone on her mountaintop, and when she died the whole estate was bulldozed, and several mansions were built on the subdivided land.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq_dE_ueFFdP3vwtgEgDiDh3_bIItKPZW13eeGsy5Fp-vUj8maLWRPn7TeAMX4y_hrffVE4Nwi7YhuBNJHco1cVlxByTUuOj9kHQUfx0aUzmZXe6CwpHmPbmu68U_fL0L3E-A-mXJN01tapipwZaA58NmS298BASl965sESi8AY8CarvARbpvVjL8MBQ/s2857/FreemanFord6.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1690" data-original-width="2857" height="378" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq_dE_ueFFdP3vwtgEgDiDh3_bIItKPZW13eeGsy5Fp-vUj8maLWRPn7TeAMX4y_hrffVE4Nwi7YhuBNJHco1cVlxByTUuOj9kHQUfx0aUzmZXe6CwpHmPbmu68U_fL0L3E-A-mXJN01tapipwZaA58NmS298BASl965sESi8AY8CarvARbpvVjL8MBQ/w640-h378/FreemanFord6.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">There’s a lot of supposition and innuendo to this tale, and it’s up to you readers to draw your own conclusions.

But on drawing nearer, a high, woven wire fence is seen surrounding the boat and the keel is so deeply imbedded in the earth and the stern so admirably arranged for garages it immediately becomes evident that no tidal wave, but some skillful and ingenious architect, placed the structure on the shore.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">The “yacht" is the beach house of Freeman Ford, prominent club man and social leader of Pasadena, and it has every outward appearance of a sea-worthy </span><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: xx-large;">vessel. Its “deck," which in house terms must be translated to “porch" is reached not by steps but by a ladder, and one leaves his landlubber pride and principles behind in clambering up that nautical approach.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">Not a single item which would foster maritime atmosphere has been omitted. A huge anchor, attached to a heavy iron chain, has been dropped overboard, and everything from gang-way, and steering wheel, to flag, mast and smoke stack are </span><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: xx-large;">in ship-shape. The kitchen is a ship’s galley, arranged in a most compact and orderly manner. There are no bedrooms, merely berths, bunks and cabins and the deck is the main dining-room.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">The windows are portholes and looking through them over the jade and pearl waters of the Pacific there comes a strong illusion that one is on a vessel </span><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: xx-large;">China-bound.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">When asked why he built the unique beach residence Freeman Ford said: “From my earliest recollections I have always had a boat. Perhaps I sailed one </span><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">as an infant in the bathtub, I can not remember a time when a toy boat was not one of my most dearly treasured possessions. Fashioning tiny boats out of </span><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">wood and pasteboard boxes, with whittled out masts and improvised sails was one of my early childhood's most intriguing occupations, and the epochs of my life are marked with the days when I </span><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: xx-large;">acquired my first tiny rowboat with oars, my first modest sailboat, and then my first sea-going yacht.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">“I have owned a yacht of one sort or another ever since I was a young lad. and I like the simple, primitive life of ships. I like to get away from the oppressive luxury of houses with their soft carpets, and coddling, cloying atmosphere, and giving a "yachting party" on board the beach yacht-house is much simpler than taking a crowd of people </span><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: xx-large;">out to sea. In the first place they don't get sea-sick and if a storm comes up one doesn’t have that horrible feeling of responsibility for their lives!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">"We have had a few admirals down on the ’yacht’ as guests, and quite a number of prominent local and eastern people, including celebrities from the motion picture world and all of them have been pleased with the simple manner in which we entertain. It is my belief that all kinds of people like to get away from the stuffiness and stupidity of conventional houses.”</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">Appropriate enough in architectural design seems the tall lighthouse which stands beside Mr. Ford’s boat residence. But besides the lighthouse tower there is a patio with a fireplace like a stage </span><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: xx-large;">setting and wings and doors opening along a row like actors’ dressing-rooms, for all the world like a theater. And what could be more fitting for the beach Home of an actress.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;"> John Hay Whitney was a man of extraordinary accomplishment in business and philanthropy. Among the many organizations he founded were J.H. Whitney and Company, the oldest venture capital firm in America; the Whitney Communications Corporation; and the John Hay Whitney Foundation "to help people achieve social and economic justice, with particular focus on those who experience discrimination in our country because of race, gender or economic condition." He was a captain in the Army Air Forces during World War II and received the Legion of Merit and Bronze Star awards. Like his grandfather, he also served as Ambassador to Britain, being asked by President Eisenhower to be Ambassador to the Court of St. James in 1956, a post he and Mrs. Whitney served in for four years. Mr. Whitney was Editor-in-Chief and Publisher of the New York Herald Tribune from 1961-1966 and Chairman of the International Herald Tribune from 1966 until his death in 1982.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;"> <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1982/03/30/nyregion/john-hay-whitney-left-5-million-to-his-wife.html" target="_blank">John Hay Whitney Left $5 Million to His Wife</a>. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJL75DJ7ky3t_JFPYt-awTgk_dyVcV8UtW8oUSCeVdtmezEpxbHZeDUe-3n-x8sn7Y8GQI3YRVS3nHG526lq7EHClLjDIXDz4y9wGzWdTV1yazQrMhdK7Jqd2-ZOLbjSxrBjLdUWLkPld5i_ZbsXIouI7stGxfszia1mdO5ZhnIjmJOHk8oAnGEQmFvYsk/s1455/WhitneyBoathouse123.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1455" data-original-width="1440" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJL75DJ7ky3t_JFPYt-awTgk_dyVcV8UtW8oUSCeVdtmezEpxbHZeDUe-3n-x8sn7Y8GQI3YRVS3nHG526lq7EHClLjDIXDz4y9wGzWdTV1yazQrMhdK7Jqd2-ZOLbjSxrBjLdUWLkPld5i_ZbsXIouI7stGxfszia1mdO5ZhnIjmJOHk8oAnGEQmFvYsk/w634-h640/WhitneyBoathouse123.jpg" width="634" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Kelly created a museum-like setting filled with antique chests, furniture and artwork of great beauty, and seating arrangements dressed with leopard, tiger and zebra skins.

<span style="font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; font-size: xx-large;">Over the years, Tiffany became well known for his taste for the theatrical and his elaborate parties. The most famous of his parties was the elaborate costumed Egyptian Fete held on February 4, 1913, in the Tiffany Studios showrooms at 345 Madison Avenue, in honor of his sixty-fifth birthday. Theme parties and costume balls were in favor with the well-to-do during the last decade of the nineteenth and the first decade of the twentieth century, and they were assiduously chronicled by the local press. Tiffany’s Egyptian extravaganza was the finale to the New York social season of 1913, which traditionally ended at the beginning of Lent, and it was considered by many the most important social entertainment of the year.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; font-size: xx-large;"><br /></span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjPo08tdfp8TXsH2_mxy7h50BaSuOetOxHWSzpKSxcMj_dQv9fhr04kFcgU8pz4ynK4VhVeBcnqBBOOA3CMqDz1A0EXvVMMQIth7MgoaciTwAvokJFA9slXXoPqKuj2f7T68Lzj19BVn23FpGuPhe4vMgRTf755U3U9v9ClqU15XTxHTMfYOcUUhumUCA=s3185" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3185" data-original-width="3068" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjPo08tdfp8TXsH2_mxy7h50BaSuOetOxHWSzpKSxcMj_dQv9fhr04kFcgU8pz4ynK4VhVeBcnqBBOOA3CMqDz1A0EXvVMMQIth7MgoaciTwAvokJFA9slXXoPqKuj2f7T68Lzj19BVn23FpGuPhe4vMgRTf755U3U9v9ClqU15XTxHTMfYOcUUhumUCA=w616-h640" width="616" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">A scene at the Egyptian Fete given at the Tiffany Studios, sketched by Dan Smith: Hedwig Reicher as Cleopatra in the foreground, and Mr. Tiffany as one of the Pharaohs in the upper right hand corner. </span></td></tr></tbody></table><div><span style="font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; font-size: xx-large;"></span></div>

<span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">Everything at Mr. Tiffany's fete was chronologically correct excepting perhaps that the elevator man wore his usual uniform; also when the pageant began the host himself in his magnificent habiliment went up in the lift with an American derby on his head instead of his huge and most becoming turban. It was much like Mrs. Vanderbilt's ball at Newport in that the men were far more more gorgeous than the woman. Like Mrs. Vanderbilt's fete, it was pronounced a man's ball.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">The overall concept of the event was undoubtedly Tiffany’s, but to give it authenticity he enlisted the help of Joseph Lindon Smith (1863-1950), a designer and Egyptology specialist from Boston whom Tiffany had met on his trip to Egypt with his daughters Comfort and Julia in the winter of 1908. Smith provided many of the components that satisfied Tiffany’s absorbing attention to detail, which involved months of preparation and about two weeks of work in the Tiffany Studios showroom, for which Tiffany paid him $1,000. Smith, who made several sketches to suggest specific types of costumes, himself arrived in shimmering patterned silks and a striped turban. The painter John White Alexander (1856-1915), then president of the National Academy of Design, and the sculptor Francis Tonetti (1863-1920) helped to supervise the guests’ costumes, which were said to have been inspired by the collections of the Metropolitan Museum. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Vocal music performed by Greta Torpadie included the “Bell Song” from Delibes’s Lakme, and <a href="https://www.npr.org/2011/06/03/136888669/love-triangles-and-pyramids-verdis-aida" target="_blank">strains from Verdi’s Aida</a> echoed through the rooms. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">The Steinway firm supplied more than one piano for the evening.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>

How could they he, doubled up on a soft seat a few inches from the floor and with never a brace to their backs? Their sandalled feet were quite in the picture, but the New York walk was forgotten. Take the average woman, loosen her hair, put sandals on her feet and loose Oriental robes in place of the modern costume, and she is apt to glide rather than hop, languish rather than stare, and become harmoniously sympathetic rather than fashionably blasé. The smugly conservative opera contingent was a thing forgotten.

Around the room, at each side of the doors, stand rich columns of onyx, inlaid with bronze, and with bronze capitals, carrying baskets or vases made of bronze and rich stained glass, by means of which a mellow light is shed over the room. </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Clusters of lights springing from the vases give the more brilliant part of the illumination.

The carpet of the drawing-room was woven in one piece, by hand, to fit the room. The whole room gives an effect of richness and brilliancy of colour which is difficult to imagine or to describe.</span><br />

The ceiling is of bamboo, with an open truss ceiling of wood resembling the red Miaco or Soochou lacquer, which is the treatment adopted for all the woodwork, and is hero and there picked out in the low yellows and greens of the red Japanese lacquer work. A low-toned tapestry on the walls is covered in places with panels of Japanese uncut velvet, in curious designs, and the furniture and cushions, &, are also of this velvet. Around the room runs a low cabinet of fantastic Japanese shape, with innumerable shelves, cupboards, and closets. At different points are beautiful panels of bronze, of which the different details are picked out in gold and silver and in varied metallic colours. A screen of stained glass forms a recess on the Fifth Avenue side.

received word that the British Ambassador had accepted your invitation to be
an honored guest and you had a million-dollar estate to dedicate, you might
abandon pocketbook control and arrange an entertainment of the proportions
of that over which Samuel Salvage recently presided at his baronial Long
Island home. It is estimated that the little social function cost the host
some $30,000.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia, times new roman, serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia, times new roman, serif; font-size: x-large;">***$30,000 in 1928 is worth $468,515.79 today.***</span></div><div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">A native Englishman who has taken up his residence in America, Mr. Salvage
undertook to reproduce an English country home in the grand manner when he
built, his Long Island residence, on a wooded hill, in the exclusive North
Shore community about the village of Glen Head. And to celebrate the
completion of one of the surpassingly beautiful country seats in a district
known far and wide, for its palatial establishments, he decided to stage a
unique garden party housewarming.
Empire Day—observed by all good Englishmen—and the, dedication of the great estate
were celebrated at the same function. Sir Esme Howard, the British
Ambassador, came from Washington especially to be present, and other social
and diplomatic dignitaries added to the distinction of the occasion by their
presence. A military band of 40 pieces, a miniature symphony orchestra, a
choir of 70 voices and a troop of Indian players were engaged, and a kiltie
band of 22 men was brought from Canada as a special feature. </span><br />

the dusky members of the troupe appeared from the far side of the terrace
and took their places in a semi-circle while one of their number chanted a
prelud with occasional vocal responses from the chorus. A quaint dramatic
skit from the East was then enacted, lending an amusingly exotic note to
the colorful goings-on in rich Mr. Salvage's Long Island garden.</span><br />

ASIDE from the musical and other features, the Salvage house-warming was a
social gathering of a sort seldom held on these shores. For inasmuch as
Empire Day, the birthday of Queen Victoria, was celebrated,
representatives of various nations in all of the world were
included.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
From Canada and the British Isles came many of the garden party guests.
Others were from India and Africa and the many other localities under the
sovereignty o£ King George and Queen Mary. The Church was well represented
with formally garbed clerics.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
At the conclusion of the afternoon the most impressive ceremony of the day
took place. Returning to the lawn terrace after the vocal program, the
Seventh Regiment band took a position beside a flagpole from which waved
the Star and Stripes. Nearby was another mast from which floated the
British Union Jack.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
With all the guests gathered about and the brilliantly setting sun casting
its last shadows, the British Ambassador gave a short address and there
was also a talk by Mr. Salvage before lusty cheers were shouted for
President Coolidge, King George, the Ambassador and host Salvage.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
Uniformed American sailors stood at attention by the pole bearing the
American flag, and when the band sounding the national anthem, they
superintended the lowering of the emblem. The Canadian delegation presided
at the lowering of the Union Jack, to the strains of "God Save The
King".
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
IT was estimated that the lavish house-warming, which was a celebration of
Empire Day as well, cost Host Salvage at least
<a href="https://www.dollartimes.com/inflation/inflation.php?amount=30000&year=1928" target="_blank">$30,000</a>. What with the special train from New York and the fleet of buses to
take the small army of guests from the train to the Salvage estate, and
the elaborate program of music, and the ambitious array of refreshments
prepared and served by a numerous corps of skilled caterers—the cost would
have been nearly that.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
In addition was the expense of the great lawn canopies to be used in case
of rain, the expansive special plantings of flowers, the considerable item
of decorating the big manor house with rare blooms, and, probably, several
thousand dollars worth of incidentals.<br />

Samuel Agar Salvage is president of the
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Viscose_Corporation" target="_blank">Viscose Company</a>, said to be the largest producers of textile fibre in the United States.
He was largely responsible several years ago for the substitution of the
word "rayon" for the phrase, "artificial silk", which brought much
favorable comment on his behalf from all parts of the world.<br />

The Salvages spend only part of the year on Long Island. Their summer home
is "The Point" at Fisher's Island, where they go with their two young
daughters, the Misses Katharine and Margaret Salvage, soon after warm
weather sets in.

While in residence at Glen Head, Mr. Salvage commuted to and from his
Manhattan office in his luxurious yacht, the "Colleen", This vessel, a
steam craft, is fitted for long cruises and is so equipped and manned that
the owner may have his breakfast aboard on his way to town, and returning
in the afternoon he may enjoy tea served on deck while steaming up the
waters of Long Island Sound. Each summer the Salvages make extended
voyages aboard the "Colleen", visiting many of the popular watering places
along the Atlantic coast.<br />

the large flower garden Near the dovecote were box shrubs, hydrangeas,
phlox, and small fruit trees. Some of the beds near the house were
mass-planted with petunias. In the center of the teahouse garden was a pool
edged with Bergenia over which hung an old apple tree. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Around 1980, the grounds around the house were redesigned by Innoccnti and

Innoccnti and Webel did preserve her garden spaces, which remain, as do the
dovecote and teahouse.</span><br />

here by a logical irregularity of plan which allows for a low-lying, rambling
structure with varying courts and terrace gardens adjoining, each designed so
that it is an integral part of the whole.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">To return to the design of the house itself, the outer walls of “Rynwood” are
of rough limestone, buff in color with a good deal of warmth which has already
acquired a certain quality of age despite its having been exposed to the
elements for only three years. This limestone is adaptable to the careful
cutting necessary for the many details which contribute to the charm and
intimate quality of the exterior design. </span><br />

interesting compositions from all angles. Some of the chimneys are carried up
from the ground in stepped weatherings and terminated by diagonal stacks. The
roof slates, which are gray with a slight variation toward russet, are laid
with a fairly narrow weathering, which diminishes slightly as they approach
the lead-covered ridge. Lead, which combines well in color with the limestone,
has been used throughout for the casements, leaders and gutters. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Many different designs have been used in the leader heads and leader straps
to give added interest and freedom to the exterior design. Iron has been used
for the railing and flower pot holders of the second floor overhanging balcony
and for the grilled window openings of diamond shape in the tea house and
garden loggia and for the garden gates. The bell cote surmounting the garage,
which serves as a motif of design as well as a practical use, is operated by a
pushbutton in the owner’s private study. By means of this bell any of the
outside servants may be summoned. As the chauffeur’s cottage, gardener’s
cottage and greenhouse are all made integral parts of the entire group of
buildings, the relation of these various units and courts to the main house
gives a composition of unusual interest.</span><br />

numerous closets and duffle rooms. The ceiling of the hall is of oak planks
supported on hand-cut timbers with chamfered edges. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"> Madgelaine’s coming-out party, a large supper-dance there, was one of
the most important social events of 1935.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">This English Cotswold was built in 1927 and, while not of historic value, is
mentioned because of its exceptional architectural beauty and scope. Owned and
built by Irish born Sir Samuel A. Salvage and </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">his wife (nee) Katharine Hoppin Richmond, it was designed by Roger Harrington
Bullard and received wide acclaim in the media when the house was
completed.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Many social events were held there over the years, the highlight of which was
Empire Day late in 1927 when the British Ambassador to the U.S. and many other
national and local dignitaries attended the garden party.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Constructed of Indiana limestone, the Elizabethan Manor style was a
triumph. Each room on the main floor has a view of the courtyard or terraced
garden with access to the garden by way of imported-English doors decorated
with Scottish motifs. It had leaded windows, oak panelling, and arched
doorways.</span><br />

have forsaken the North Shore beaches adjoining their estates in favor of
private swimming pools. Many parties that formerly were held on the sand at
the shore are now staged with the central setting of the pool in the
garden.</span><br />

the harbors became so full of yachts and the increasing motor tourists
ferreted out every available beach on which to have picnics. Even the clubs
that boast a shore front and bathing beach have built pools for their members
who do not care for the uncertain hygienic condition of the public waters.
Wide publicity given this season to the pollution of bathing beach waters has
made the pool even more popular.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">"DuPont’s major U.S. rayon competitor, Courtaulds’ Viscose Company. Their two
representatives, Samuel Agar Salvage for the Viscose Company and Leonard A.
Yerkes for DuPont, served as president and vice president of the Rayon and
Synthetic Yarn Association. Founded in 1929, this organization had the
superficial trappings of a standard trade association: it included most U.S.
rayon manufacturers of the day under one big tent, predominantly viscose
producers, but also what remained of those still using other methods, such as
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuprammonium_rayon" target="_blank">cuprammonium</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Salvage and Yerkes called the shots. In the battle over foreign imports,
Salvage spearheaded a successful lobbying effort to maintain trade protections
(already well established). This was accomplished by the inclusion of fairly
hefty duties on imported rayon in the
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoot%E2%80%93Hawley_Tariff_Act" target="_blank">Smoot-Hawley tariff</a>
legislation winding its way through Congress in the spring of 1930.
Domestically, DuPont and the Viscose Company had already agreed to curtail
production in order to stabilize prices through reduced supply, but this
effort was being undermined by suppliers that cut prices to increase their
share of the reduced market. In July 1931, when the other companies would not
fall in line, Salvage and Yerkes agreed to cut their own prices. The Viscose
Company and DuPont abruptly left the Rayon and Synthetic Yarn Association,
effectively disbanding the group that they had been instrumental in
creating."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">According to Magdelaine Salvage, Miss Emerson inquired only about the
purchase price and the location of the “croakie-pitch court” (croquet court).
When informed there was no croquet court, she departed “without looking at the
pantry, the kitchen, even the swimming pool. My mother simply assumed we had
lost a prospective buyer until the next day when Miss Emerson’s attorney
arrived at “Rynwood” and negotiated its purchase.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">“A team of decorators appeared shortly thereafter,” she continued, “and they
worked on the home for nine </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">months. Not once during that time did Miss Emerson ever make an appearance.
But a croquet court did”. </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">The new owner ordered a hill on the southeast lawn leveled for that
purpose.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">In the 1920’s when all of Sands Point was available for the taking, Margaret
Emerson-Vanderbilt specifically tasked her architects and engineers to select
the optimal estate setting for her Sands Point, NY Gold Coast Mansion.
After careful consideration, they selected the property with the highest
elevation parallel to the New York City Skyline, 80 feet above sea level, all
the way to Manhasset Bay at Half Moon Beach. A guest cottage which stands to
this day was constructed at the base of the property, a 405 foot Deep Water
Dock and bulkhead was constructed.</span><br />

years. Two months later, he remarried and built the Emersonian, a

houses“, as it blocked his ex-wife’s view of Druid Lake. He and
his new wife lived in the top floors of the building so that he could

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">In 1979 Mansions & Millionaires show planners negotiated with the
Lundy family for use of Rynwood. </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">The “trusted servant" of Lundy was a source of information for heating
units, electrical wiring, and needed repairs, until one day he failed to
appear. He had been indicted for allegedly appropriating Lundy
assets. </span><br />

the Brookville vault. Lundy </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">apparently never suspected that Autorino had anything to do with the
theft, because the manservant</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">remained with the millionaire until Lundy died on Sept 6, 1977. Indeed,
in the last 14 months of his life, </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">when Lundy was confined to a wheelchair, he became almost totally

W. von Rehling Quistgaard Place, at Oyster Bay, Long Island<p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: xxx-large;">WHEN, a few years ago, J. W. von Rehling Quistgaard, the Danish portrait and miniature artist, set himself the task of creating an ideal home in the country, the first consideration was, of course, an ideal location. Born and brought up on the water’s edge, he desired a home as near the sea as possible. Since the house was to include a studio facing more or less to northward and at the same time commanding a sea view, his choice naturally fell upon the North Shore of Long Island. There, in the desirable Oyster Bay section, and thus within a convenient motor ride of New York, he found his home site—on the open Sound, with a growth of native oaks and evergreens and so situated that the house could be built with an exposure making for the maximum of indispensable sunshine.</span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GNlwC7HCjY8/YTypAXFiggI/AAAAAAAH2zo/ZMg35fLHwO4BOjclwCRj_G5HyozHgF3ZQCLcBGAsYHQ/s2579/VillaGerdrup7_colorSAI_result.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1219" data-original-width="2579" height="302" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GNlwC7HCjY8/YTypAXFiggI/AAAAAAAH2zo/ZMg35fLHwO4BOjclwCRj_G5HyozHgF3ZQCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h302/VillaGerdrup7_colorSAI_result.JPG" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">"Villa Gerdrup", the J.

For this was to be an all-the-year round home, warm in winter as well as cool in summer. This, of course, suggested fireproof construction of brick, hollow wall tile and reinforced concrete. As for the architecture, it may be said to be in a sense an original composition, since it grew from the imaginings of the owner. It suggests Italy and Spain in some of its lines, but there are marked Danish touches. Pink was decided upon as the color of the stucco, partly because Mr. Quistgaard desired to emulate in this country an artistic treatment with which he was familiar in Europe and partly for the practical reason that it was best to select a tone which would not be trying to the eye under the effect of strong sunshine and dazzling reflections from the water. Pink being the complementary color of the predominant blue of sea and sky, the result is admirable and the picture is a most fascinating one—alike when the surrounding foliage has the fresh green of springtime and when the oaks have put on their beautiful autumn coloring. The color, which is an integral part of the stucco, was arrived at only after long experimentation on the part of Mr. Quistgaard, who mixed himself the Venetian red with coarse sand, white cement and lime. The especially designed terra cotta ornament was the object of similar study. Green is most prominent in this ornament, but there is a slight use of blue and gold. At first the blinds were green, but the color has been changed to blue and to distinct advantage. A striking feature of the house is the roof garden, which serves the double purpose of elevating the central structure above the wings and of providing a delightfully secluded retreat with a wonderful sea view on one side and a wooded view on the other.</span></span><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="font-size: xx-large; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6wM4H6ueNlE/YMCuBb4mHmI/AAAAAAAH1i8/kSMiL4O4RSQ588_L_SRzBwNII91GI_G4gCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/VillaGerdrup_colorSAI_result.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1529" data-original-width="2048" height="478" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6wM4H6ueNlE/YMCuBb4mHmI/AAAAAAAH1i8/kSMiL4O4RSQ588_L_SRzBwNII91GI_G4gCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h478/VillaGerdrup_colorSAI_result.JPG" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">THE DELICATE ROSE STUCCO, RELIEVED BY BLUE BLINDS, IS IN DELIGHTFUL CONTRAST TO BOTH SKY AND FOLIAGE</span></td></tr></tbody></table><p style="font-size: xx-large;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">The house is approached from the highway by a long straight drive and directly one enters the door the straight view is continued to the Sound—indeed, to the opposite shore. The hall has an arched opening into the inner hall, of which the solarium, with its nine large one-pane windows, is a continuation. Three of these windows have the sea view and all look out upon a broad brick terrace whence a straight walk leads to the beach. At the left of the hall the studio is reached through the living room, while at the right is the dining room. The halls and solarium have tiled floors, and the staircase has brick steps. Brick is also effectively used in finishing the arched doorways of the halls and the coping. The living room and studio fireplaces are also of this material. As the bricks had to be cut and furthermore rubbed together to bring about the desired soft finish, the final effect was achieved only after many difficulties with bricklayers unaccustomed to such methods. Each of the bedrooms opens on a balcony and all have the sea view with the exception of the one planned for the owner’s children, which has a sunny southern exposure.</span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="font-size: xx-large; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SPl8qOSBfvc/YMCt99K6jFI/AAAAAAAH1iQ/lk97vECtTE057qawXxyxWkTVoD5JlgZTQCLcBGAsYHQ/s1703/VillaGerdrup1_colorSAI_result.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1703" data-original-width="1553" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SPl8qOSBfvc/YMCt99K6jFI/AAAAAAAH1iQ/lk97vECtTE057qawXxyxWkTVoD5JlgZTQCLcBGAsYHQ/w584-h640/VillaGerdrup1_colorSAI_result.JPG" width="584" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">THE EXTERIOR ORNAMENT AND IRONWORK DESERVE THIS CLOSER VIEW</span></td></tr></tbody></table><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;"></span></p><span style="font-size: xx-large;">While Mr. Quistgaard himself drew the plans of the house to scale, he had the cooperation of the staff of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirby,_Petit_%26_Green" target="_blank">Kirby & Petit</a>, architects.

It is the perfect realization of a discriminating artist’s dream, finely thought out down to the last architectural, decorative and landscape detail. Despite the fact that there is no hard and fast adherence to an established style, there is nowhere a discordant note to be found. And the more familiar one is with this place, the more insistent is its appealing charm. But of all it is, as it was expressly intended to be distinctly livable. It is, first of all, and most of all, a home in the finest and every sense of the word.</span></div></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: xx-large; text-align: left;">The surrounding landscape treatment is studied and yet has the appearance of being unstudied; only the long entrance drive and the straight walk from the terrace to the beach—lined with specimen privets, trimmed in ball shape—have any aspect of formality. There has been a certain amount of necessary grading and much planting of shrubbery, but the dominant tree note is as nature left it—with oaks in the majority. While the strip of land is quite narrow, all sense of narrowness is lost because the native trees blend with those on the two adjoining estates. On the sea side there is naturally nothing to interrupt the view of Long Island Sound, as shade is not required for the northerly exposure. During the summer there is a constant panorama of the Sound steamers as well as the yachts from the Seawanhaka and other important clubs in the neighborhood of Oyster Bay.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: xx-large; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">*** "Villa Gerdrup" no longer stands. ***</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Gxe2YgZ1yHM/YTzDIvtWOlI/AAAAAAAH22A/gZdV0Kc-zWAKUu1RUHhNJbFNuqNOFNBkACLcBGAsYHQ/s2972/NotesComments.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1058" data-original-width="2972" height="228" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Gxe2YgZ1yHM/YTzDIvtWOlI/AAAAAAAH22A/gZdV0Kc-zWAKUu1RUHhNJbFNuqNOFNBkACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h228/NotesComments.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">Mrs. M.

To this end he captains the line of beaters from the center to keep it steady and even. The birds are fed in this first wood. They are plentiful (perhaps 600 of them) and comparatively tame on this first drive of the day. As the beaters come through, tap-tapping steadily on tree boles, a thickening throng of graceful, running shapes, their rustle increasing as the number grows, moves toward the clearing where the gunners wait. The crest of the hill is reached. A few birds take wing, the hens </span><span style="font-family: georgia;">with a soft rush of wings, the brazen-purple breasted cocks with a cackling cry that is the first loud sound of the morning.

Three or four of his oldest, most trustworthy men have been posted as “stops” all this while on the next lane to the westward (see map), each with a white flag which he has been waving gently to keep birds from the first rise, or already in the second cover, from running beyond the lane in their fright at the sound of guns.

No matter what celebrated marksman may be present, he and all the rest move down the line of gunners one number, so that No. 10 is now No. 1. And on this drive there are four walking guns. The four highest numbers walk. They walk through four “rides” (bridle paths) thoughtfully cut for them through the cedar and sumac thicket that constitutes this second cover. They walk just behind the line of beaters, and their instructions are that they may shoot only birds which double back over the beaters’ heads. Shooting at birds forward (or at rabbits) puts one in disgrace or out of the field altogether. But a walking gunner will have little temptation. This second cover is small; the fun soon begins. The line of guns on the lane becomes loudly audible before the walking gunners are anywhere near range. The latter halt when they come to stakes again marked for them. On goes the banging until the last bird has risen and the autumn scene falls quiet again save for the voices of men with dogs, men making alibis or apologizing.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"></span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jFfDj0OqGy8/YBK-N_irbqI/AAAAAAAHyYY/0VPo1Fc8NoMUqMjyGQy0Sk95_0l-sKrrgCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/Caumsett1937.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1075" data-original-width="2048" height="336" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jFfDj0OqGy8/YBK-N_irbqI/AAAAAAAHyYY/0VPo1Fc8NoMUqMjyGQy0Sk95_0l-sKrrgCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h336/Caumsett1937.JPG" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">1930 aerial showing the open fields.</span></td></tr></tbody></table><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: x-large;">Hardest shooting of all in this day’s round at the Field estate is at Rise No. IV.

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">TO build a house is easy. Any one with sufficient money can do it. The other necessities are few—land, an architect, an interior decorator, a builder. The combination of these will result in a fine, solid structure, calculated to keep out the weather for years to come and to provide storage space for the owner’s belongings.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">To build a house that, in mass and detail, expresses the background, tastes and interests of its occupants is another matter. It calls for years of planning, the determination to fulfill wishes, and the imagination to carry them through to full fruition. All of which is by way of introduction to the still incompleted Long Island home of Mr. and Mrs. J. Cornelius Rathborne.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">The Rathbornes knew what they wanted, and went methodically about the job of getting it. Together, they spent more than a year going over plans. They wanted a house that would be large enough, comfortable, adapted to its site, and of an architecture familiar to them. Both are Southerners, Mrs. Rathborne from Maryland, Cornelius Rathborne from Louisiana. From Maryland spring the modified southern Georgian lines of the house, while Louisiana supplies its name.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">The approach to the house is delightful. Turning off the surfaced road, the visitor enters a gravelled lane which runs through a thrifty young orchard. A right angle turn then brings him face to face with the entrance court. It is at this point that, knowing the ample proportions of the house, the near-genius of its design is first apparent. The charming home hugs the ground, and seems to flow with the gentle contours of the land.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">To have a house of the desired proportions on the site selected, and yet have it appear intimate and unpretentious, was a problem which W. Lawrence Bottomley, the Rathbornes’ architect, solved in ingenious fashion. Beautifully mellowed hand-made Virginia brick, one-quarter oversize, was used in the construction. The doors and windows are also oversize, and this enlargement of detail has the seemingly contradictory effect of reducing the appearance of size. A large cobblestone court, surrounded by a brick wall, in which stand a number of fine trees, further contributes to the illusion on the approach side of the house.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Nor did the interest of Cornelius Rathborne confine itself to the grounds and to the exterior. Perhaps the most striking room in the house is the dining room, and its decoration was his conception. During the course of a sporting visit to India he came across a copy of a book, “British Sports of the East,” by Capt. Thomas Williams, published in 1807, containing 40 magnificent colored engravings by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Howitt" target="_blank">Samuel Howett</a>, depicting tiger shooting, pig sticking and other active diversions of the day and place.</span><br />

Delayed at first, Old Westbury estate owners successfully campaigned to divert the Northern State Parkway away from the village and their large properties. The solution became known as Objectors’ Bend, which is the sudden, almost 90-degree turn south on the parkway as one approaches Old Westbury from the west. The path of the Long Island Expressway was their second battle and caused much debate, as Robert Moses’s plans called for the expressway to cut through the middle of places like the village of Old Westbury. The estate owners were not victorious, and the expressway divided villages and estates in half. Places like J. Cornelius Rathborne’s Pelican Farm were razed, and <a href="http://www.oldlongisland.com/2013/05/longfields.html" target="_blank">William P.

To this was added turrets, gables, and huge oak beams that rose from the craggy seascape of the east point on the island. It became a seafarer's landmark, with a fabulous view of Fishers Island and Block Island Sound, the Connecticut shoreline, Watch Hill and the Long Island north shore.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Alfred G. Vanderbilt will make his home upon his return in the most luxurious "apartment" ever designed as a private home. It will consist of the two top floors of the new Vanderbilt Hotel, Park Avenue and Thirty-fourth Street. It has been estimated that similar accommodations, reckoned upon a floor-space basis, would cost approximately $40,000 a year(over a million today), not including meals.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">The main dining hall is two stories in height and occupies the space of four rooms. It can be altered, by a special arrangement of doors, to make either a small informal dining room or a large room for elaborate dinners. Bedrooms, breakfast room, and tearoom are from two to four times the size of ordinary rooms of similar character.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">Mr. and Mrs. Vanderbilt having spent the early summer abroad have returned to <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=PDGxamgSskgC&pg=PA60&dq=Sandy+Point+Farm,+Newport&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjV_rXWp4zXAhXn7oMKHba_ALIQ6AEIOjAD#v=onepage&q&f=false" target="_blank">Sandy Point Farm, Newport</a>. The picture shown above of Mrs. Vanderbilt and her fascinating little daughter, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloria_Vanderbilt" target="_blank">Gloria Laura</a>, is one of the most charming pictures of maternal beauty that Arts & Decoration has ever published. The pose is so tender and sensitive, revealing perhaps even more than a formal picture young Mrs. Vanderbilts rare charm and gracious personality. It is easy to understand how this baby remained "good" long enough to have her picture taken with her eyes focused on so lovely a spectacle.</span><br />
