She Built This House: Lydia Pinkham’s Patent Medicine and the Compound on Kingswood Lake

By Barbara Neville Wilson

“Oh, we’ll sing of Lydia Pinkham And her love for the human race How she sells her Vegetable Compound, And the papers they publish her face.”

“The official Lydia Pinkham Song”

Although the property is no longer i n t he f am i l y, P i nkha m ’ s s p i r i t l i ve s on and c oul d al m os t be m i s t ake n as pa r t of t he m ode r n m ov e m e nt of be t t e r he al t h t h r ough na t ur al r e m e di e s , unrefined foods, exercise and ample rest. Although not as popular as it once was, Lydia E.

Lauren’s family origins go back to F r e nc h B as que c ount r y and H ai t i , but s he gr e w up i n r ur al N e w Y or k ne ar t he hom e of F r e de r i c C hu r c h, one of t he e ar l y H uds on R i ve r S c hol pa i nt e r s .

Lauren is a three-time recipient of the Hudson R i ve r F e l l ow s h i p and a w i ne r of t he Henriette Reiss Award.

Typically, Erik and Lauren work from s m al l o i l s or s ke t c he s t he y’ ve m ade di r e c t l y i n a l an ds c ape , and f r om t hos e grow their larger finished paintings.

N e i t he r dr aw s f r om phot ogr aphs , w hi c h are too confining and lose the spirit of t he poe t i c c om pos i t i on s t ha t e m e r ge from field trips.

ors still abound as to how she spent her eight years in Gilmanton. To set the record straight, Grace’s daughter, Marsha Duprey, will speak, along with University of Southern Maine professor Ardis Cameron, author of Unbuttoning America: A Biography of Peyton Place. A lively discussion is sure to ensue!

A poetry reading will take place on Saturday, Aug. 6 at 5 pm. It is rumored that poet Robert Frost once slept at the Scriven Arts Colony, but the poet is dead now, and it falls to his heirs to reinvent New England poetry. Come watch them in action

as we deliver readings from Gilmanton summer resident Sharon Olson, author of the acclaimed collection, The Long Night of Flying, and Vermont poet William Stratton, a Pushcart Prize nominee whose muscular, plainspoken poems celebrate the natural world and the grit of hardworking country people. An additional poet, Katherine Ferrier, will bring her 1950 manual typewriter to craft spontaneous poems upon request. Ferrier is part of WREN, an art gallery and community hub in Bethlehem, NH.
