We Visit With An Old Friend Wallis E Howe We Visit With An Old Friend
An extended reminiscence with Wallis E Howe recounting long-ago Bristol memories. Vignettes include Cousin Lizzie Smith found in a bureau drawer, Major Newton’s France observation about four- to five-year-olds speaking French, and a butler named Phelps during a Gammell visit. Howe recalls a severe 1917 18 winter, ferry crossings to Newport, and family stories from the past. A tense slingshot incident with a maid named Kittie Marium Un ends with a cheeky marriage quip.
