BARNARD, Vt, (#).—An ancient Vermont hill farm:in Barnard has been chosen by Sinclair Lewis, novelist, and { his bride, Dorothy Thompson, as their | permanent Spring, Summer and | Autumn home. Coming here from their honeymoon in England for a brief stay before Winter drove them to their New. York apart- ment,.they have heen delighted with the com’ortable 132-year-old farmhouse and pleased - with the lack of flutter shown | by the countryside over their arrival. Some might think the farm a-bit Jonely, but it is just what the author wanted. Barnard has only 650 residents, and they are scattered over a tuwnship of 45 square miles. The village is 8 and 10 miles, respectively, from the railroad lines on the north and south. To reach the Lewis place one must climb a nar- row, winding road out of the village, still higher into the hills, a distance ‘of about two miles. House Obscured. ‘The house, obsscured from the high- way, is low and white, with a wide veranda across its front. Surrounded by a bit of lawn and garden land amid a cluster of trees. it nestles on a slope which forms one side of a narrow valley. | A few hundred feet below a brook ram- | bles along the \all(‘) bottom. The old place has its historic assocla- tions. The hill road that swings past his driveway is still remembered locally as that used by Marquis de Lafayette on his final triumphal tour.of America in 18 The novelist called attention to the doofstep ‘of his home. The big oblong piece of rock bore this inscription: “From This Stone The Doorstep of Akins Tavern Marquis de Lafayette Addressed the People Of : Barnard, Vermont, June 28, 1825.” The tavern, Mr. Lewls said, still stands a short distance down the highway and is now used as a farmhouse. In this setting.. made more colorful by the Indian Summer foliage, the novelist found 'seclusion for -work on a novel he is finishing. And with his bride, who has:a reputation of her own as a writer, he has planned the future | of their farmhouse. Part of his 300 acres Mr. Lewis plans to keep wooded. The brook will be dammed to form a natural swimming pool. - The vegetable garden already has been moved farther from the house. The wife of the novelist has installed in its place the beginning of a flower garden. Here she has found enjoyment working the dark loam with her own hands. Confirmation Lacking. Although a report had been circu- lated to the effect that people in the vicinity of Barnard had felt they mlght to made subject:of anather Lewis novel, no confirmation of this rumor could be found. r. Lewis, himself, said he had learned of no such feeling. “If they have, I haven't encountered it. No, they haven’t the self-conscious- ness of people in towns, People in towns worry about such things.” “It's a good place to get work done,” the author said. “I really don't know any of the people in the neighborhood yet: And they don't intrude upon you—just let you alone. “I'm settling down now after many years of wandering. Of course I'll go back to Europe in a couple of years. But instead of spending a couple of years there at a time I will probably cut my visits to nbout four months.” Mlsswnary Sessmn Held.
