RSW's Diary Comments
"Painted November 1935. Painting of November road edged with rows of maples and stone wall; side road running by the Halifax, Vt. House. Bought by Mrs. Wm. H. Moore's sister in 1937 from among a number I sent down to New York (by Fabian in my car) for Mrs. Moore to see. Mrs. Moore's sister is Mrs. Lora J. Knight, Santa Barbara, California."
