November 1, 1914 - Finally here in Paradise!

This was an amazing postcard for me to find. We knew of Joe's strong connection to Elbert Hubbard. From what we can surmise he did secretarial work for Hubbard in the New Haven area when Hubbard was lecturing at places like Yale. His dream was to travel to Roycroft in Aurora, New York. As you can see from the postcard this dream was realized.

 

 

 Finally here in Paradise!

Joe

I truly wish we had more information about this journey. The fact that he was able to see Hubbard in his home environment must have had a big impact on him. Information about Roycroft can be found with this link. 

I found this photograph on line of the chapel today. The website for Roycroft states that the chapel is currently being restored.

The next letter is December 31 so I will continue to fill in with some articles about Joe's law practice that continue a picture of his life in 1914.
