Quotations

• 1937 Clara Studer, Sky storming Yankee, Stackpole sons, 1937, page 19:

  The Glen was the prettiest place she knew, so pretty she thought she ought to name her first baby after it. With another "n" added "to make it look more like a name", she called him Glenn Hammond Curtiss. The middle name was taken from the town itself, or its first settler, Lazarus Hammond.
