Two stories high and observatory. The parlors are finished in good style, marble mantles ceiling in stucco, walls papered with mauve colored satin with gold flowers. Carpet white Brussels with figures of shaded rose-color. and others things to correspond Piano, guitar sofas, lounge and Rockers & chairs stuffed spring seat, carved marble topped furniture Parisian vases, pictures, glass and silver in abundance, But I noticed but few books, which I should miss. So he lives in luxurious ease. But there is always something wanting - His health is not good, he is troubled with asthma considerably, and then there were not little pattering feet running around in his home. His wife is very pleasant - We had an excellent visit they have adopted an orphan neice of Lorin's wife, she is 12 years old.
