"At the ball lately given by Mrs. Meighen, 140 Drummond Street (formerly the residence of Lord Mount Stephen), an unique effect of lighting the main staircase and hall was produced with reflectors placed outside of the stained glass windows and ornamental skylight. As the art glass was exceedingly handsome, and the lights not spared, the effect was excellent."
