In the souvenir programme goiten up for the bazaar, along with a gen- eral sketch of the history of the B nevolent and Protective Order of Elks and the history of Norwich lodge, No. 430, 15 an informing outline of the his- tory of the so-called Osgood residence on Main street, which is to be the Elks' home and for the benefit of which the bazaar is given. In the carly history of the city the site where the “handsome residence now stands was a rich meadow lying between the Shetucket turnpike and the old Prov dence stage road, and owned by Hon. James Lanman, a United States sens tor, mayor of the town at one time, and a member of the constitutional con- vention. Describing how the residence came to be built and its subsequent history, the souvenir programme says: “To one young man the beauty of this meadow was ideal. a man but r cently come to Norwich, engaged in the cotton industry in the nearby vi lage of Jewett City, where his forbears had through foresight and thrift cre- ated a large and prosperous busin: The young man, still In his twenties, wus ar tne nead of that industry, haa chosen Norwich for his home, and soon was to choose a charming lady as his wite. “So, when Miss Nellie Hubbard be- came 'the bride of John F. Slater of the family so renowned in the cotton in- dustry, his thoughts turned again to the beautiful Lanman meadow, a per- fect site for a noble mansion. The Hon. Mr. Lanman had died end his Wwidow possessed the meadow as her dower right. Mr. Slater greatly de- sired the land, and in September, 1543, paid the widow the generous sum $3,800 for it. The land secured, were at once formulated for the grand- est mansion Norwich had ever Known. The superintendence of its construction fell to James Spalding, an active and competent builder, and a force of skill- ed craftsmen were soon at work, cabi- net makers, wood carvers, stone ma- sons, skilled men of their hands every one, and stair puilders, a trade today unknown, for today there is not in Norwich 'a single man who could do the stair work done in that mansion, save one, a man who plied his trade of stair Duilding in those days. whose brother actually did, that very stair ouiaing, Beriah §. Rathbun, who is enjoying amonsst us the ripe old age of 91 years, one of the few men that saw that edifice buiding. “Bulidings were slowly and careful- 1y constructed, all the work practically was hand work, and the year 1844 was used up, and most of the vear 1545, before the house was completed, ~But the result was a masterpiece of the buflders’ art, strong and stately in fts magnificence, yet withal a wholesome simplicity in' its lines and adornments, colontal in etyle, with grand, impres- sive columns, a treat to the artist's eve.

James L. Day, a man whose business interests and hence his e were southern; he felt that his lot fell best with the ‘lost cause and prepared to sell his fine estate here. The beauty Of the grounds of the Day plice ‘made the same appeal to Mr. Siater that the Lanman meadow had years before and in 1562 he became its purchaser. His first home he retained until 1865, when Dr. Bentley became its own: paying $13.500 for the house and accompanying plot.
