FREE Parking Lot Join Our Merchandise Club Layaway Plan Tumbling bam kitties and assorted friendly dogs join a fence line of curious horses to greet visitors to historic Story Book Farm at Tryon's Corner on Holiday Hospitality Day. Wednesday, Oct. 7. A large gray barn stands solemn guard over this beautiful early Victorian farm home--which could inde,ed be a picture from a story book. The simple grace and dignity of its gray-trimmed white clapboard exterior reflect the refinement and culture which Bela and Harriet Tryon brought with them from Massachusetts in 1837. They lived with their two small sons in a log cabin across the road while waiting for the lumber for their new home to come by wagon from Chicago. Harriet Tryon wrote friends in the East, "For three months I never saw a female or anyone else." It took courage to leave the comfort and familiar surroundings of her native New England to face, with her small, family* the unkhown leaderships ih this wilderness. Yet in those months of isolation, she designed a home and a way of life that were to be an influence on the entire county. She was undaunted by loneliness and occasional visits from hungry Pottowatomi Indians seeking food at her back door. Harriet Tryon was determined to educate her children and provide them with all the opportunities and more which had been left behind. She filled their home with books and music and it soon became the social and cultural center of the community. Their sons went to public and, later private schools and on to distinguish themselves in the State Legislature and in the highly respected office of County Surveyor. The Tryon name and family descendents are still know in the area today. The present owners of the Tryon house, Elmer J. Holdorf and Gavin J. Beglin, have kept much of its original beauty, adding only those improvements required by modern living. The aura of Harriet Tryon's gentle New England breeding is there and she probably would be pleased to know that her home was the backdrop on Holiday Hospitality Day for Baby Land--the sale of delicate handknit articles for the new baby. She would surely approve, also, of the old books shop in her living room -- and its popular proprietor, Florence Bourke Ellis, nationally known book reviewer and Woodstock resident. Hospitality Day is sponsored each fall by the woman's auxiliary to Memorial hospital. Tickets, maps and directions will be available at the Gift and Thrift shop on Dean street in Woodstock.
