Ogden, David Beyard? 1849-1923 P Page 1,840 [A Trip Through The California Sierras In September 1904 1 Part 3. 18 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston. November 7th, 1904. David B. Ogden, Esq., New York. Dear David: I want to finish telling you about my trip through the mountains while it is fresh in my mind. I stopped where I was starting out from Owen's Valley to return back across the Sierras over Kearsage Pass. But I want first to give you some idea of Owen's Valley for it interested me a good deal. If you left the Southern Pacific road at Reno just before it begins its climb out of Nevada over the Sierras, and followed the Sierras southward, rising up to the west of you like a great mountain wall, past Carson City, you would after a time find yourself in Owen's Valley, and through it you could then pass on beyond with scarce a rise to the Mojave Desert; and a new line of railroad is now under survey to run from Salt Lake down along this route to southern California, reaching Los Angeles through one of the low passes which break through the mountains there. When it is Copy 2 from 18 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston. November 29th, 1905. David B. Ogden, Esq., New York City. Dear David, This is an account of what I did at Bar Harbor with regard * [Guy] to the new building. Lowell went down with me about ten days after I saw you in New York and we located the building, putting the south- ern side of it about one hundred feet back from the road line (which is some eight or ten feet back from the present road-ditch). This still leaves quite a space upon the northern side of the building between it and the round turn of the right of way, some sixty feet as I recall it though perhans not quite so much. The southern facing is practically parallel to the line of the road opposite, and somewhat to the west of the gap between the mountains. East and west, the site we chose is as much to the east 8.8 the ledge that rises up to the eastward would permit, 80 that the continuation of the ledge below ground crops out slightly into the cellar. This seemed best, first because it would fall in with building sometime our hereafter is Greek scena at the foot of the ledge with the ledge itself for amphitheatre; and second, that we might get as much space as possible at the building's western end, between it and the golf links - and on account of some large trees. The site determined itself as we worked it out very closely, and I do not think could well be other than the one we chose. Lowell brought down with him a man named Buttimer who was Building of the Arts. 2. building superintendent upon Edgar Scott's house and whom I saw something of at that time, as they were getting their stone from my quarry. He is a man very well fitted to do that kind of work well, and economically too I think. Lowell sent him down again a week after he went back, with the completed foundation plans. We then got bids on these, taking concrete as the material. Buttimer, speak- ing for Lowell, who was then just sailing for a few weeks in Europe, and also from his own exuerience felt sure that concrete foundations rightly laid would be permanent and wholly satisfactory, and that with care they might be safely laid at this season and on into winter. And also that the cost would be much less than that of stone. We got bids from Preble, Westcot, Shea, Strout & Willy (who have the contract for building the Water Company's filter) Stanley, and Norris, their bids ranging from $11,000. down to $5,500., in the order in which I have named them. Stanley's bid - the one that came next to Norris's being $6027. Norris is an excellent mason, the best down there I imagine, and had charge of the stone work on the Scott house, but he is not a man to be relied on financially - in any sense, I believe. He is also a splendid foreman, getting good work out of his men and keeping things moving and also good at think- ing out the best method of doing his work whatever that may be. The next step was to make sure that Norris was good for his bid financially. He said that he could bring backers who would en- dorse his contract. I told him to take them to Mr Lynam and let him pass upon them. He produced J. E. Trip and Clifford Doliver, whom Lynam said he should consider satisfactory. We therefore awarded the contract to Norris. Buttimer, however, said that he thought something might be saved even on Norris's hid if WA did the work by the day, taking Norris as superintendent which he had found out 3. Mr Lowell's office whom Mr Lowell had had in mind for it to take charge of the work. Norris also said he thought he could save something by doing the work in that way as in making his estimate of cost he had made allowance for unforseen contingencies. I favored working in this way myself because I did not feel wholly satisfied but that laying concrete, of which they have had but little experience down there, at this season when there are liable to be sudden cold snaps and hard frosts might be risky if not done under experienced and careful superintendence. And I also thought that the foundation plan might probably be modified in detail, in the interest both of convenience and economy, to muit the ledge and situation as the work went on, i: some one were there looking after it who was competent to do it. So I decided, Buttimer also advising it, to do the work by the day, putting Norris in as foreman (at $5.00 a day) and having a building superintendent down from Mr Lowell's office. Buttimer accordingly went back to Boston and sent down a young architect named Fly, a graduate of the Institute of Technology, who took second prize one of the Rotch travelling-scholarship competitions a faw years ago and studied for a year in Paris and then went down to Italy and Greece and spent three weeks at Athens making sketches there. Since then he has done some large johs of constrictional work- one of them for the Cash Register Company at Ohio, if I remember rightly, and another in New York he used concrete on these on a large scale and apparently has had considerable experience with it. The buildings out at Ohio he laid the concrete for through the midst of the severest winter weather, protecting the work as it went along as we have now planned to do at Bar Harbor. He had also been very much interested in his trip to Greece and made sketches there of the old buildings. 80 that he is very mich interested nor A in our plan. He thinks the site remarkably good for such a build- ing, giving it a setting more in the Greek spirit than any he has ever seen in America. Lowell has left the working out of his sketches in detail to him quite largely under his own supervision ne says, so that I was glad to find him really in intelligent sympathy with what we are trying to do architecturally. He also seems an excellent man for the practical work and anxious, as he expressed it to me, "to make a record job of it if possible". He has a little office at the works and will be there steadily now while work 18 going on. We have ordered a tent whose length shall be the breadth of the building and somewhat more, and which I find can be made to order at Bangor at what seemed an absurdly low price. The concrete laying will be carried on under this, with stoves beneath it to keep the temperature above freezing while work is going on in freezing weather. This tent will be moved along the length of the building from west to east as the work progresses and the walls as fast as finished will be covered with hay or light manure to keep the frost out until the concrete has set hard, which it does in the course of a few days freezing then doing it no harm he says. The building is to have a six-inch akron drain-pipe at the base of the wall upon the northern side, outside of it, with a stone drain above it and vertical pipes to take the surface water down. And an eight-inch pipe will similarly go down past either end of the wall building to discharge into the roadside ditch. A small cess- pool is also being build in the south-eastern corner of the lot, where the terrace-fill will be a deep one, the water from it. syphoning out, draining off into a blind stone drain and losing itself in the ground. This will have a separate pine leading down to it from the as building, laid in the same drain the eight-inch pipe from its east- There will be two cellars, one at each end, as long as the building is broad and of moderate width. The one at the western end will be for a toilet room for guests, extra cloak room for any larger function and storage room for chairs, etc. The one at the eastern end will be the same breadth 88 the stage, and on a higher level than the western one to save blasting out ledge, this level being per- mitted by the greater head-room which the elevation of the stage will give. It will provide abundant dressing rooms, lighted by electric- ity, for theatrical performance, storage room for musicians' instru- ments, and the like, and also have a toilet room for the performers. Both these cellars will be free from piers. And the ground beneath the rest of the building will not be excavated except for the neces- sary foundations and to leave space for ventillation or for heating. The type of building which we have chosen calls for foundations that show a base wider than the building I forget what the arch- itectural term for it is and for broad steps descending to the south and west, as well as for the flooring of the columed porticos and on either side the deep bases on which these steps and porticos or whatever their term is must rest to protect them from sinking or being have by frost. This is the reason why the cost of the foundations is so large in proportion to the building. The approach avenue I threw off further when I came to study it over than we had planned at first. This was necessary in order to leave room for sloping down toward it from the terrace, whose level will be quite high above it. at the road-side. And also it had the advantage of keeping it further away from the building. It passes straight up from the road, running parallel with the west front of the building, which will have a court of ample size in front of it. I laid the avenue out sixteen feet wide: it will have a 6. solid stone foundation and a steady grade. The view from the terrace is going to be magnificent. I was very much struck with it myself when we got the ground for it clear. and it is going to make a splendid fore-court to the building on the southern side. In fact I feel that it is all going to work out better than I counted on and I think the whole effect is going to be a very striking one. The building and terrace, and the avenue have been carefully fenced around so that the trees that lie outside of them will take no injury from the winter's work. Mr Ely's plan is to go ahead with the wooden framing of the building as soon as work upon the foundations is finished, 80 that all may be ready for the stucco and plaster work when spring opens. In this way only can we be sure of having the work done in season for next year. Lowell will be back in three or four weeks now, and then we shall want to get together and give the plans a very careful study as soon as he can get them into definite and final shape. I think he is really greatly interested in the building himself and has assured me that he look#. upon it as an opportunity of exceptional interest and will give it his best thought and study. And I feel confident he will. [George B Dorr] Levi Z. Leiters of Chicago.

BAR HARBOR, Me., June 22.-The sea- son at Bar Harbor may practically be said to have opened. Such an early season may be explained, perhaps, by the fact that a number of very prominent men of National repute are to spend their vacations here. Among these may be mentioned Gov. Mor- ton and ex-Secretary Whitney of New- York. The Governor has taken Mrs. Alice Bowler's cottage in the Field, and will ar- rive, with his family, about July 1. No expense is being spared to make the little cottage as attractive as possible, and every- thing is being put in readiness to receive the honored guests. There is little doubt that if the Prince of Wales goes to Newport this Summer, he will sall over to Mount Desert Island. The mere possibility of his coming is sufficient to boom things to no mean degree. New-York is very well represented in the cottage list, Prominent among those al- ready here are Mr. and Mrs. A. De Castro, who are stopping at their own cottage, in the Field. Miss De Castro and Master Conard Gardiner De Castro are with them. Gen. G. M.

PRINCE OF WALES MAY POSSIBLY COME New-York Well Represented in the Cottage List Ex-Gov. (Flower Amoug the Arrivals for the Season. BAR HARBOR, Me., June 22.-The sea- son at Bar Harbor may practically be said to have opened. Such an early season may be explained, perhaps, by the fact that a number of very prominent men of National repute are to spend their vacations here. Among these may be mentioned Gov. Mor- ton and ex-Secretary Whitney of New- York. The Governor has taken Mrs. Alice Bowler's cottage in the Field, and will ar- rive, with his family, about July 1. No expense is being spared to make the little cottage as attractive as possible, and every- thing is being put in readiness to receive the honored guests. There is little doubt that If the Prince of Wales goes to Newport this Summer, he will sail over to Mount Desert Island. The mere possibility of his coming is sufficient to boom things to no mean degree. New-York is very well represented in the cottage list. Prominent among those al- ready here are Mr. and Mrs. A. De Castro, who are stopping at their own cottage, in the Field. Miss De Castro and Master Conard Gardiner De Castro are with them. Gen. G. M. Dodge and family are here for the season and are occupying their little cottage, Mare Vista, situated at the foot of Atlantic Avenue. Mrs. W. P. Draper at her cottage, the Boulder, on Kebo Street.

Mr. and Mrs. George Place have taken a cottage on Eden Street and expect to be here the entire Summer. Perhaps the handsomest cottage at Bar Harbor is the one owned and occupied by the well-known New-York banker, Mr. J. S. Kennedy, and family. It is charmingly situated, right at the water's edge, and in the choicest spot on Toe Path Lane. It Is surrounded by well laid out drives and large old shode trees and flower gardens.

New York Times (1923-Current file); Oct 31, 1923; ProQuest Historical Newspapers: The New York Times (1851-2007) pg. 14 David B. Ogden. To the Editor of The New York Times: In the death of Mr. David B. Ogden Bar Harbor loses one of the best men who has ever made a Summer home among us. Singularly pure in life and thought, high- minded and public spirited, Mr. Ogden was an influence for good no less in the great City of New York, his native home, than in Bar Harbor. A lawyer whose judgment all respected, he was a wide reader and a man to whom no generous human interest was. foreign. Art, history, literature and public service all entered into his life and thought; the circle of his friends was wide, his friendship warm and enduring. Mr. Ogden's father-Mr. Gouverneur Morris Ogden-of an ancestry distinguished in the history of our country, and his mother, came to Bar Harbor in 1867 and were among the first of those who made their Summer home here, their house on Ogden Point becoming at once the centre of kindly hospitality. Mr. Ogden came with them. climbing the trailless mountains as a boy, rowing and sailing on the bay: his whole life was asso- clated intimately with the town, and no one better appreciated than he, or more deeply loved, the beauty of the Island. His last work of public service in this region was that of promoting during the war and after, the organization and effectiveness of the Red Cross. to which he gave unstintedly his time and strength. He was a man to honor and will be greatly missed. GEORGE BUCKNAM DORR. Washington. Oct. 27. 1923. Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

Morrill, the cottage illustrates a stage in the evolution of the Maine shore. After the Rusticator period, beginning in the 1860s, the next step in Bar Harbor's growth into a resort was the building private dwellings by the new summer residents. C.J.
