Fonctions : Note found within a recipe book that was complied by Lucy Harris. Lucy (1844-1925), the daughter of Captain James B. (1797-1884) and Elizabeth Harris (n‚e Molony) (1829-1884), and sister of Arthur, lived at Benares until an inheritance in 1880 allowed her to move to Toronto. Lucy's influence is felt strongly in the drawing room, as many of the artifacts originally came from the home she shared with her sister Bessie at 71 St. George Street, and later 584 Huron Street, in Toronto. Lucy loved antiques and bought many things at auction such as the Tall- Boy Cabinet, Pembroke Table (painted table), fold- out card table (inlaid), Davenport writing desk and tea caddy, which have been in this room, along with her portrait, since her death in 1925.
