BEVERLY, 
MASS. 
Ipswich. 
There is a distinct charm about this inland North 
Skore town, that has earned for itself a warm spot in 
the affections of many of the most wealthy people of the 
country, a number of whom have reared very beautiful 
and costly estates in the sweeping confines of broad 
fields and towering elevations. So satisfied have they 
become with their summer environment that they re- 
main now in many cases as permanent residents of this 
town, so full of historical tradition and where many old 
colonial mansions are significant. To the list of costly 
summer mansions will be added another, namely, that of 
R. T. Crane, jr., of Chicago, who bought the Castle Hill 
property last year. It is to be of slap dash, Spanish 
type, some 100x300 feet in dimensions and will prob- 
ably embrace some 65 rooms. Ira G. Hershey of Boston 
is the contractor and the architects are Shepley, Rutan’ & 
Coolidge of Boston. Mr. Coolidge is in full charge. The 
Crane family are occupying the original house on the 
Castle Hill. 
James Howe Proctor of Boston is expending some 
$100,000 on an addition to his estate on Fellows Road. 
Selectman Chadburne, the well known Ipswich con- 
tractor and town official, has the big painting contract 
in connection with this estate. 
Dr. Joseph L. Goodale and family of Beacon street, 
Boston, are abroad this season and the Misses Hunneman 
of Roxbury have their estate on Argilla road. 
The Willett estate has been rented to Mr. and Mrs. E. 
M. Cook of Boston and Dedham and the Theodore Wen- 
dell farm to Mrs. Rogers of Boston. Miss Rogers, the 
daughter, is an artist of much ability and this is their 
second season in Ipswich.
