Photograph of hand written notes by Thomas Hornsby Ferril on the wood paneling in his house located in Denver, Colorado. The 1889 Queen Anne style house was built by Hughes and Llewellyn from plans drawn by Franklin Goodnow for Mrs. J.N. Palmer, great aunt of Thomas Hornsby Ferril. The first two floors are of brick, and the attic story is of wood with decorative diamond-shaped shingles and lattice-work. Thomas Hornsby Ferril, poet laureate of Colorado and foremost figure in the literary history of Denver and Colorado, lived in the house from 1900 until his death in 1988.
