Notes:
A letter from James F. O'Gorman dated August 31, 1976, provides provenance information for a painting he calls "Portrait of an Unidentified Woman" by H.B. Skeele. He acquired it from an antique dealer in Holliston, MA, who informed him it came from a house in Natick, MA [letter, SLAM document files].
