Notes
First printed in 1910. Second printing 1943.

Illustration by Florence Taylor Humphreys. The illustration is in the second printing. The first printing does not have the illustration.
This is a poem about a face [now a mannequin] that has been for many generations in the third floor window of a house which is 2 miles south of Wakefield on Rt. 222 in Fulton Township. The house sits on top of a hill. One source provided this version of the back story: The house was inhabited by a couple, and the husband left for service during the Civil War. His wife kept vigil at the window, waiting for her husband to come home. Hers was the face in the window. Her husband never returned from the war.
