The old home place at Falling Timber. By the time of the photo (1982) it had been long empty.
This was the place left to Tennessee Williams after Henry's death. When Williams visited the site
in Clay County, in Eastern Kentucky, he told a newspaper reporter that the place had fallen very
far indeed. Other beneficiaries of Henry's will included Stefan Brecht, son of poet Bertolt Brecht,
and Alice Delamar, a wealthy Palm Beach matron who needed one of Henry's properties as much as
another hole in the head. The properties left included a house in Key West, a house in Lexington,
a small Fayette County farm, and a questionable site in Sicily. Questionable because, it was the
only property mentioned in the will that couldn't be substantiated. When asked about it in Sicily
friends there tended to lose their command of English, or drift away and, in the case of one especially
close friend, to leave the country the very next day despite scheduling an interview with the author.
