From the Philsdelphia News
The Garrett residence Is a wonder Of architec-
tural and decorative art; and its formal opening,
by grand bali early in January, 1887, was the
event OF that Baltimore season. The ground plan
Is 60 by 100 feet; there are three stories and
basement, with q solid front OF brown stone. The
general style Is that OF the French ennaisSance
but the designer allowed himself much latitude.
The main hall is that OF an old English manor
and all the woodwork Is OF English black OAK.

paintings and steel suits OF mail There Is also
library finished In mahogany, dining room in
the Dutch style OF the sixteenth century, parlor

conservatory, 40 by 90 feet In stze which Is per

bubbling fountains and waterfalls over all of
