Text Appearing Before Image:
The Famous Staircase in the Lower Hall have dowered these superb old mansions with a tradition for hospitality almost without a peer among the great houses of America. Nor is their continuous owner- ship and occupancy by a single family, or members or branches of a single family, without im- portant value. The modern house is built for modern use, and many a great new structure has passed out of the possession of its builder's family within a few years after it has been completed. But the old builders of the James River built for longer years than their own, built charmingly and well, so that their children and children's children loved the old places, lived in them and cared for them. The survival of these mansions is, therefore, a significant fact, possessing a sociological as well as an architectural or esthetic value. It means a new idea of home, or rather the old idea, exemplified, magnified and illustrated in the finest possible way.
