Broadfields estate, his 14-acre home in Andover, was designed by Percival Gallagher and James Sturges Pray of Olmsted Brothers (Brookline, Mass.) and planted during 1905-1920. The planting style was in the Olmsted "tapestry" mode of rich textural and color effects with the dramatic mingling of rare trees and other flora.
