Caption: "Superintendant's Home, Brandywine Plant, across from Hagley Office. This dwelling house is near the Lower Hagley Works, diagonally across the road from the former Christ Church Sunday School Building, the latter better known as the Hagley office since 1902. The old part of the house in the foreground was built about 1810 and was used by the Bark Mill people as a dwelling; the two wings, one on the left with the lattice entrance and the other in front, not visible in the picture, were later additions. This was the home of Mr. Belin whose daughter Miss Mary, afterwards became Mrs. Lammot du Pont and was the mother of Pierre S, Irenee, and Lammot, and others. Mr. Edward Collison who succeeded Mr. Belin as Chief Accountant and bookkeeper for the company lived here for many years, and at his death in 1892 the writer and his family occupied this residence for several years. J.W. Macklem, March 23, 1928."
