HUGE SUMMER HOME TO REST ON LAKE FLOOR 38-Room Island Palace Is in Path of Proposed Waterway. &V 1 nitrti Prc*n CLEVELAND, Oct. 21.—The huge and fence magnificent summer home of the James W. Corrigans, steel magnates of Cleveland, will become but a memory If the St. Lawrence waterway is developed as 'planned. The formerly palatial home with Its thirty-eight rooms, twelve baths and quarters for servants and ground keepers, its costly oriental rugs and other luxurious furnishings, stands on Dry island, a part of the Thousand island group near Morlsburg, Ontario. It was built many years ago and the property descended to James W. Corrigan Jr. at his father’s death in 1906 Today,,the estate is overgrov/n with vines and weedsr A ninetyfoot yacht, once one of the finest in that part of the river, is slowly rusting away at the dock. The island is a setting for affairs in the liveif of both father and son. It was there that the father crossed into the United States on his way to Cleveland to become, years later, a powerful figure in the steel industry. Before his migration here he had worked on a nearby Canadian farm. It was there that James Jr., met Mrs. Duncan R. Mac Martin of Chicago whom he later married. After spending a summer at Dry Island, Mrs. Mac Martin wrote a book, “The Dry "Fable of a Dry Crowd at Dry Island.” After their honeymoon, the couple had little use for the island. They preferred’London, where Mrs. Corrigan became one of England’s most popular hostesses. At the son’s death, four years ago, appraisers of his estate valued the place at but $lO 000. Soon the Canadian and United States governments will start erecting two huge damsf at Crysler and Barnhart Island and Dry Island will be the' bottom of a huge manmade lake. With Dry Island another palatial summer home, also the playspot of a steel magnate, will sink into obmer home of David Thompson, president of the Inland Steel Company of Chicago.
