Excerpt from Maude Adams: A Biography
Handsome young father, and in cabinet, under lock and key, keeps as sacred relics the few souvenirs that remain of him, a faded photograph, a watch fob worn thin, a lock of hair, thick and soft and ashen brown like her own. Calling at a. Friend's apartment she saw an engraved copy of Hans Makart's Diana's Chase. I remember that picture, she said with the wistful tenderness so effective because so sincere in The Little Min ister and Peter Pan. It was my father's. It hung over his desk in our home in Salt Lake City.
