Library Item of the Week: Dr. Morley B. Lewis and Mary R. Lewis, 1947

This photograph from the Carleton Kelsey Collection shows Dr. Morley Brown Lewis (1869-1955) and his wife, Mary Robina Law Ettershank Lewis (1870-1958). A notation on the reverse indicates this image was captured in 1947 while the couple enjoyed Thanksgiving in Westhampton Beach. Kelsey saved a letter with this image, which he received from their son Arnold Meredith Lewis (1904-1994), sharing details about Arnold's parents.
