DANBURY. June 9.—The Ivcs'
homestead. one of Dsnbury’s inter-2st-
ing old landmarks. which is soon to
give place to a modern banking
istructure. will be opened to the pub-
lic on June 15th. from I to 6 o'clock;
for the benefit of the- Old People's’
Home fund. which was started in the
south parlor of the old house.
From the one dollar admission fee

ing old house. it is expected that the
fund. which now totals over twenty
thousand dollars. wi.l be materially‘
increased.
The Old People's Home project
originated with the late Mrs. Lyman
D. Brewster. a member of the lves’
family. who made her home for many
years in the old house. The fund
was started with twenty-five cents
placed in a box in the south parlor
some twelve or fifteen years ago. and
by donations both large and small and
several bequests.
The members of the Children's
Home board. who are the custodians
of the fund. are anxious to increase the
total. and it was felt that the old
house which is so intimately asso~
ciated with the project might {lather
serve in the cause in this novel and
practical way while it yet stands on
the location. at the corner of Main
street and Chapel plscefwhich it has
occupied for 120 years or more.
The old residence. which is one of
the few remaining ola homes in that~
section of the city. has many interest-:
ing associations. Besides the Old
People's Home, which has yet to come
into being. the old house was the
birthplace of still another local insti-
tution. the Savings Bank of Danbury.
which had its first counting room in
the dining room. The land now oc-
cupied by the present building of that.
institution. on the opposite comer.
was fdrmerly part of the orginal lvcs'
property surrounding the house.
A splendid example of the tvpe of
architecture of the early days. the
old house is interesting. not only for
its construction. its oddly pannel’ ed
doors. hand wrought iron hardware
and sloping Mansard roof but for its
furnishings. mdny of which an of the
lperiod of the house. and for the

,which still does duty as a piece of
living room furniture. A settle. which ‘
.' is made from the wood of a tree
i which stood in front of the old Taylor:E
house. is also pointed out with pride
‘ by the present occupants of the house.
.ss are also the old Venetian blinds. a
: beautiful hand-carved tom-poster
‘ bed and other handsome and interest-.
ling pieces too numerous to mention.
‘ It. is expected that many people. not
alone Danburians. but lovers of hiso,
ltorical heirlooms and antiques from
{the surrounding vicinity. will be glad
to take advantage of the opportunity
l which this open day will afford to live
for an hour or so in the atmosphere
of the past. and to aid. at the same
time. a. cause which is most worthy.
