Thomas Barnard, when he was mayor of Wallace, in a pose that has the mayor sitting sideways on an arm chair, cigar in hand, foot over arm rest and reading a newspaper. Her intent for this unusual pose is believed to be the desire to show a person with “class and authority,” but at the same time whimsical and approachable. ~Barnard-Stockbridge Museum
