Middletown Man Collects Stones From Across the World
Frank H. Darner of Middletown, longtime Potomac Edison worker, has built a globe-spanning collection of nearly 1,000 stones. The display in his garden includes pieces from all U.S. states and many foreign lands, with items ranging from half an inch to thirty inches and colors across the spectrum. Each stone is cataloged by number and donor, then mounted with copper ledger strips. Notable pieces include a fragment from the London House of Commons damaged in 1941 and a 64 A D Roman tile from St Marys Dover, plus stones from Cairo and Palestine. The collection grew during World War II as friends mailed back specimens.
