DescriptionSingle, horizontally-oriented rectangular window pane made of colorless non-lead glass. A design is hand-engraved with a diamond on the glass, beginning with an artist's palette in the upper left quadrant. A paint brush and flowers are superimposed over the palette or surround it. Over twenty names are engraved into the glass with a diamond. Above the palette are "Jessie Spaulding" and "Mattie Allen". Below the palette are "Neil Deneefe", "Edgar Camp", "Julius Lewis", "Samuel McKensie", "William Churchill", "William Ames", "Charlie Carter", and "Milton Medling". To the right of the palette are "Anna Cook", "Maude Vivian", "Anna Peck", "Florence Cummings", "Lillse Lewis", "Ellen Larson", "Lottie Kilborn", "Hattie Ramsey", "Annie Bowles", "Clara Dunham", "Bistha Beckley", "Bessie Stowe", "Gertrude Ware", "Mable Cadwell", and "J." "Class '96" is etched below the palette and between the two columns of names. There are small chips and nicks on all sides of the edge of the glass.
