CONCORD, N. H, May 23.-The
question of whether Molly Stark, cele-
brated wife Of the famous Revolutionary
general, John Stark, ever had her fea-
lures recorded for posterity on canvas,
has precipltated warm discussion.
A western railroad. which has named
one Of it's trains Tor the heroine, wanted
an authentic picture for advertising pur-
poses A New York art gallery said the
thing was simple for it had an excel
lent portrait of Mrs. Stark by John
Singleton Copley.
A philadelphia museum differed,
pointing out it had a Molly Stark por-
trait but it bore little resemblance to
the one in New York.
Now. to complicate matters further,
Otis G. Hammond, director of the New
Hampshire Historical Society of Con-
cord, and Mrs. Charles Frederick Morris
Stark also of this city and the wife of
a sixth generation descendant of the
General and Molly have entered the
controversy on opposing sides.
Maj. Hammond said today the New
York and Philadelphia portraits were
not only Of different women but, "in my
opinion neither is a likeness Of the wife
of Gen Stark"

One slave Cabin.
The glamour OF the past hovers over
the quaint little slave cabin on Brook
vile Farm, which Mrs. Frank Hood
Shultz has fitted up for afternoon teas
and Summer entertaining.
All the proper antiques of the period
have been used by Mrs. Shultz in fur
nishing the cabin. Copper cooking
things are on the hearth, while hooked
rugs, patchwork quilts and hundred
year-old prints complete the picture.
There is even a coonskin nailed on the
wall and the doorstep Is an old bride

on the day Of the pilgrimage.
Brook Farm is a real farm almost in

ducks are being raised successfully, as
are also aristocratic poultry with blue

These reports will be signed and mailed

been necessary, due to the fact that dis

the person for whom the money was
