Bedroom Set
The set – bed, dresser, comode –
was new when my parents (Gilbert and Lillie
Cardinal) were married in 1901. The bed no
longer exists. The set is made of cherry
wood. The dresser originally had a mirror in
a frame so that the mirror could be tilted.
My mother removed the frame and hung the
mirror on the wall in the 1920's. The frame
is gone, but the mirror was left in attic at
132 S. Oneida St. until Carl Sippel gave it
to me in 1985. The bevel-edge mirror has a
broken-out section which my mother concealled
with picture post cards.
