them get by the blue sky laws. but
certainly there must be some answer
to it."
Another phrase which the prosecu-
ton emphasized said that the minute

Every one of the rooms as originally
planned was 1o feet wide, and certain
changes had to be made to have the
rooms fit into the newly planned
house Also. for the once-gorgeous
ball room-which was considerably
shortened into a beautifully proper
toned living room-there was no

In each room, restored woodwork
was carefully placed to bring the at
mosphere of its true period, yet con-
form to necessarily readjusted lines
and space. The broad sweep of arch
way in the center hall between the
front door with its original fan-light
and the wide stairs with slender hand
rail was kept intact, giving distinction
to the entrance.
Living room and dining room bal
ance each other on either side OF the
wide hall. A coZy smaller library lies
behind the living room on one side
with an attractively arched stone
porch running alongside both. Across
the hall, beyond the dining room, a
CHEEKY informal breakfast room with
stone walls carries out the antique
idea in design and furnishings, ana
behind that lie a strictly modern put
very roomy kitchen, pantries and
powder room. Upstairs are four large
bed rooms, each with its own batn,
linen closets, etc. Where fireplaces
don't have genuine antiques for tiles,

signs are used and young Italian

ginia, helped her in the grading, NIL
ing in and planting of flowers and
shrubs that have made a gorgeous
garden Just below the front of the
main house. The garden cost $1,000,
according to Mrs. Smith. due to the
expense necessitated in filling in the
land to make it level and balanced.
All the old-fashioned flowers were
grown there and, on its first birthday,
at the end of May, the garden with
its swinging, old fashioned gates,
sunken fountain, tagged walks and
rainbow-colored blossoms, gave rare
illusion of having been in that spot
for many, many years.

~ ROADVIEW, one of the beau
u tiful homes in nearby War
renton, Va, has just been sold
IL by Mrs. David Blackwell
Smith of Warrenton to Alex
ander B. Hagner. we'll known in
Washington who has made his home
in the county seat of Fauquier County.
With its 405 acres of splendid,
rolling land close to the course of the
famous Gold Cup races, Broadview
has a magnificent command of the
gorgeous view for which it was
named. The place is unique, how
ever, for interior values rather than
exterior.
The principal rooms of Broad
view are made of rejuvenated walls,
doors, windows and mantel pieces from
the historic home of Bishop Fontaine,
first Bishop of North Carolina, said
to have gone to that territory with
famous William Byrd.
Found by Accident.
Mrs. Smith found the original
bishops house, also named Fontaine
for the owner, quite by accident two
years ago when she was driving
through the country with a friend
engaged in the intriguing pursuit of
hunting antiques They found the
house, with the outside quite dilapi-
dated, in rather unkempt country be-
tween Littleton and Warrenton, N. c.,
close to the State line and the
Roanoke River. Four colored fam
lilies occupied the house, and the
beautifully carved window frames,
doors (some with unusual fan-lights),
mantels and wall holdings, were grimy
with dirt or, in some cases, covered
with whitewash.
But the detail of all the carving
was well preserved" said Mrs. Smith
discussing her find enthusiastically,
and l knew Id stumbled on real
treasure. All the work probably was
done in the early eighteenth century,
for ! found later that some of the
carved patterns were identical with
those designed for house my great

Planned Removals.
Realizing that in Broadview which
she had bought some six years pre-
vious to her finding of Fontaine
and its treasures, she had the ideal
setting to build house which might
appropriately hold the rejuvenated
rooms from Fontaine, Mrs. Smith
made a speedy return trip to the his
toric residence of the North Carolina
bishop accompanied by Davenport
Blackwell, "a kinsman of mine who
is a mighty good engineer" according
to Mrs. Smith. He helped her figure
out the practical problems concern
ing purchase and removal of the in
teriorS.
She brought them to Warrenton to
the site of a bungalow which had
burned in the middle of her 405 acres
and then called upon en- artist friend,

architect by profession, for advice as
to the designing of her house. The

with Mr. Cranes sketches in hand,
Mrs Smith sought out Charles Grant,

the plans and actually construct the

ago.
