The Furniture was left to me by Christina in her will and was brought to Two Ashes by Jane and Amrick (Picture just earlier) The smoking Cabinet was a twentyfirst Birthday Present to my Father from my Mum's Family
Each Drawer was filled with a different brand of Cigarettes
There is a Tobacco jar in the Centre and below there are slots for Pipes and Cigars
The oilpainting is of Rydal Water and was painted by one of Arthur's Godmothers , Laura Mc Quone
With regard to the Dining Table, Father paid 10 Shillings and sixpence extra for the Scallops round the edge
That is about 55pence in modern money
All in all a very satisfactory outcome
