JUDGE LUMAN NORTON HOUSE,
1838.
This fine old Colonial house is occupied
by Mrs. W. B. Walker, the only surviving
grandchild of the builder. She owns the
largest private collection of U. S. Pottery
as well as many rare specimens of old
china.
The beautiful monument of the potter's
skill which stands on the porch, was
shown at the Crystal Palace Exposition
at New York in 1854. It stands ten feet
in height on a Pedestal of Scrodel 32
inches in diameter. The base is of mott-
led Rockingham and the Corinthian
column canopy encloses a Parian bust of
C. W. Fenton, the designer, who made
the old pottery famous, and was the in-
ventor of "flint finish.” The whole is
surmounted by a figure of Charity.
