· WI L M E:"F T E LtFE Children Romp in .Wins Scholarship Historic Mansion of a Sea Captain........__ _ _ _ _ _ _. . .~ Ffom sea captain to kindergarten might be a fitting caption for an his. 0 !~ri~,\l~~t~~n~sof theha~l~s ~h~m~~o~ Kennedy home located on Michigan avenue just east of the Wilmette bathing beach. Vacant now, old and rundown as it is, the structure still has an atmosphere about it, due perhaps to the tower at the rear remininscent ·of a sea captain's look-out, which indeed it was years ago for Captain Barney Reitch who settled in Wilmette nearly forty years ago. Captain Barney came to Wilmette in 1888 and, having made a fortune with his invention, Reitch's Metal Polish, chose a site for his future home. Being a seaman, the lake naturally appealed to him and he built what was then a very expensive home and which was one of the first house in Wilmette. The house itself was rather unusual, the walls being decorated with paintings, even to the tower. Also, rumor has · it, there were underground passages leading to the lake front. Although Captain Barney's early life is rather vague in the minds of those who remember him, there is no doubt but that he spent most of his youth on the seas. He was a typical old salt, rather short and stocky as to stature, always dressed in sailor's garb, shunning footgear most of the year and possessing the usual "salty" vocabulary. He died at the age of 82, leaving the house . and other valuable property to the Alexian Brothers hospital in Chicago, and later purchased by a resident. The h(\use is at present being used by Miss Betsy Shapker's summer kindergarten group. g At M0R 'GAN ,s, · 1 o 1 1 ----·-· o 616 DAVIS STREET, EVANSTON o 0 t ·· CaUiol'Dia Valeaolas full of rich, SWeet juice B u1 $1 aJ e1 U .00 V Ue Jello 2 pkgs. 1Sc Pears Bartlett 0 0~ New Graham Cracken 2 pkgs. 2Sc N.
