All of the rugs on the second floor are 
gray. In the bedroom, a bit of which is 
shown here, the floor is green and the walls 
papered with a gray, rose and green design 
showing little Colonial scenes in vertical 
lines with flowers intervening. Pink or¬ 
gandie curtains bound with rick-rack are 
at the windows and the same material is 
used on the little dressing table. The 
furniture is painted 
THE RESTORED 
FARMHOUSE 
of 
MRS. CHAS. H. SABIN 
From the hall at the right of the picture one enters the living room with its 
black floor and hooked rugs, original old fireplace, framed prints and maple 
furniture. Dotted swiss and gay chintz are used for the two sets of cur¬ 
tains, the latter material also covering the black and gold Duncan Phyfe 
chaise longue 
Above the yellow floor and blue rug of the dining room are white paneled 
walls made cheery with flowered chintz over-curtains and mirrored lighting 
fixtures. The decorations throughout the house were planned and executed 
by Mrs. Sabin and are admirably in keeping with a house built, as “The 
Homestead” was, in 1764
