The striking of the three wall clocks strike four and you know it is time for afternoon high tea.

On a cold day there is nothing better than the sound of hot water on the stove coming to a roaring boil. Choose your favorite tea and just the right amount of "sugar in the raw"...what a sweet time as you sit in the library, look down Second Avenue, and wonder what was it like in 1905 as Mr. Pace and his seven children looked toward the family hardware store known as Pace's Hardware.
