FIRE PLACE LODGE

Mr. and Mrs. Cook are spending their first winter at Fireplace, in the beautiful house which they have created out of the old barn and carriage house on the grounds of Mrs. Cook's long established and highly successful Fire Place Lodge. I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon there a week or so ago, and of seeing a great many family treasures... Mrs. Cook's grandmother, Mary Talmage of Bound Brook, N. J., was a sister of the Rev. Dr. T. De Witt Talmage who was pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn, known as the Brooklyn Tabernacle, for 26 years; this church held 6,000 people... Fire Place Lodge, also known as Fireplace Lodge Girls Camp, was a camp for girls located at the end of Springs Fireplace Road in East Hampton, NY.
