Description

"#31 & #33: #31, Arthur in mature prime. #33, Arthur when he was a failing, sick man, on the grounds of the Compound." "#32: Graham in the office of Aldis & Co. at the roll top desk that was where Owen F., and his father, Arthur, had worked. Mary Cornelia [wife of donor], has it in the house at South Haven, where she, too, works and writes, today." #34: James Keeley's French, crystal chandelier that hung in the dining room at Lake Forest once he died. Graham's Sterner portrait . Mary Aldis dessert plates on the plate rail. Helen Lathrop's ladder back, mahogany chairs - all, here at the house." "#35: The yellow glass turkey, Gertrude Keeley's, that always decked the Thanksgiving table as a center piece, as it does ours. Dorothy's, blue, ceramic roosters. The Tzar glasses as they were always called. There were six and each of the girls took two. They are very heavy, etched, yellow glasses. Go back to Mary Aldis days." -Notes provided by Roy E. Porter, son-in-law of Graham Aldis, and grandson-in-law of Arthur Aldis.
