Hence the place is as beautiful as fallow field and virgin forest can make 1t. Sweeps of daisies such as we see so often in Virginia delighted the eye. There are woodlands grown thick with tall, thin tree-trunks like those we see Tn tho backgrounds of old Italian painters; these woodlands are set on the borders thick with violets and lilies of the valley. Tha garden is unique and rare even for this country of beautiful gardens There are old carved marble seats from Greece and Rome, marble fountain. sun-dial, miniature lake, summer houses builded of stone and of marble. lattices brought from Italy The garden being on slope with stone steps leading down the knoll. The beauties of the garden are almost hid
 
 cry path leads to a surprise and many vistas cut through the cedars gave beautiful views over rare, blue hills It Is an ideal garden"
