Found a couple more of Charles. Wish I could find portraits on all the subjects of this blog! The following portrait can be found on The Project Gutenberg. It's part of the book Forty Years of 'Spy' by Leslie Ward.

Pre-Sylvia's Garden

There was a wedding and a reception at Moor Close before the 1911-1913 building expansion and creation of Sylvia's Garden. The garden was created to honor the (surprise) birth of Sylvia Birch Crisp in 1913.
