AMERICAN ESTATES AND GARDENS that again the highest roof of all, emphasized with the richest dormer of the series. The gardenfront has a loggia of five delicate arches connecting the two wings, and is surrounded witha balustraded and stepped approach, which is continued on the two adjoining sides of the house. The stately hall is almost without parallel among the palatial rooms of great Americanpalaces. It is monumental in size, and designed and decorated in a monumental manner. Itconsists of two parts: an outer hall, which is entered directly from the main doorway, andwhich contains, on one side, the stairway, built of stone and carried on arches; and an inneror main hall, which is purely decorative in purpose. It is three stories in height, built of Caenstone, plain below, with paneled arches and pilasters, very refined in design and beautifullychiseled. The second story is a superb arcade, decorated in every part, having round archescarried on piers, all minutely carved and paneled
