The following is the letter (condensed for space) received with this gun attesting to its original owner and his story: This 20-gauge double was one of a pair acquired by my great-grandfather Henry Wheeler de Forest from James Purdey & Sons in London. He was a crack shot and an avid and accomplished sportsman with a passion for bird hunting and salmon fishing. During the first decades of the 20th Century, the family removed to Penshurst Castle in Kent, England each autumn for the shooting. The other gun in the pair was given to his host in gratitude for their hospitality. A descendant of French Huguenots, Henry de Forest lived from 1855 to 193 8, was a graduate of Williston Seminary at Yale University in 1876 and was a graduate of Columbia University Law School in 1878. Initially trained as an attorney, he practiced law with the firm of de Forest & Weeks and its successor firm, de Forest Brothers, until 1932. A prominent railroad executive and industrialist of the Gilded Age, Henry de Forest was the chairman of the Executive Committee of the Southern Pacific Railroad from 1925 to 1928, served as the chairman of its Board of Directors from 1929 to 1932 and served as a director from 1905 until his death. In addition, he served as a director and member of the Executive Committee of each of the Texas & New Orleans Railroad and the Delaware & Hudson Railroad, and as a director of each of the Arizona Eastern R.R. Co., Galveston, Harrisburg & San Antonio Railway Co., Houston & Shreveport R.R. Co., Houston & Texas Central R.R. Co., Houston East & West Texas R.R. Co., Illinois Central R.R. Co., Louisiana & Western R.R. Co., Morgan's Louisiana & Texas R.R. & Steamship Co., New Jersey & New York R.R. Co., and Yazoo & Mississippi Valley R.R. Co. Having interests that extended beyond the railroad industry, he was a trustee (with Elihu Root) of the majority of the capital stock of the Equitable Life Assurance Society and was involved in the mutualization of The Equitable and Metropolitan Life, a trustee and chairman of the Executive Committee of the Bank for Savings in New York, chairman of the Pacific Oil Company during its merger with Standard Oil of California (now Chevron), .....
