No words of mine could do justice to Sergeant Kerwin—the genial, hospitable "Jim" Kerwin, not asa fluter and a lover of the music of his ancestors, but as a host at his magnificent privateresidence on Wabash Avenue [Chicago]. On his invitation and that of his equally hospitable andcharming wife, a select company, attracted and united by a common hobby, met monthly on Sundayafternoons at his house for years.
