“The door on our right goes out to a porch we call the Veranda.”
Robert Marvin
“While this is our library, it has only a few cases for books. That’s because the Prendergast Library down the street has a rich store of materials, which I know, because I’ve been on the library board for several years. The books we keep here are the ones we like to read.”
Elizabeth Marvin
“…and any old ones we donate to the area public libraries.”
Robert Marvin
“The fireplace mantle here is made of a very dense mahogany. It is a highly durable wood, can be stained well, which gives it the rich appearance you see here. The finish coat is shellac.”
Elizabeth Marvin
“…and now to the dining room.”
