Notes:
From a letter in the Accession file: "Mary was Christian to the core, and her face shone with inner illumination. She was pretty, sweet amp; saintly. Was S.S. Supt for years in the local M.E. Church, and when she sold her woodlot for $10,000, she presented the church with new windows of stained glass, as a memorial to the Straws." Gertrude E. Hall to Charlotte Conover, Portland, Maine, July 1, 1950.
