Default Nemours- the birthplace in France of E.I. DuPont

So in the older labels- E.I. DuPont de Nemours et Fils- E.I. Dupont (aka- "Uncle Dupey" to the citizens of Wilmington DE) of Nemours, France and Sons-- my sister Mary Francis was a French major at Bryn Mayr- her first husband was a Chemical Engineer ( yeah- go figure that hey) for DuPont- she still lives in Wilmington and teaches French in the area schools-

As far as this "Phantom" stuff is concerned, there was only ONE "Phantom"- the late LaMont Cranston- no wait, he was the Shadow-- Bella Lugosi was the "Phantom" of the Opera--

Wonder how old Freddie Boy would have fared if he had stayed with LC Smith--??

Harriet Hammons name came up somewhere on the web recently, can't remember where. However, I seem to remember the name was connected with a shotgun, maybe her name on the shotgun or in a letter of provenance. Anyone remember? She was a Dupont employee.
