Title	Leadville, 1940, Healy House
Creator(s)	Wolle, Muriel Sibell, 1898-1977.
Summary	In this interior view of the dining room in the Healy House Museum, on the northwest corner of Harrison Avenue and East Tenth Street in Leadville, Colorado there is a black walnut sideboard with a mirror, ornately carved handles and decorative fish. A silver set with a coffee urn and a tea pot, sugar, creamer and fruit bowl with handle sit on the sideboard. A wooden chair and a panel door are on the right and a fluffy dog sits on a bench next to the sunlit window on the left. The house was built in 1878 by August Meyer. In 1881, it became the First Methodist Episcopal Church parsonage, and in 1886, the home of Patrick A. and Ellen Healy Kelly who transferred ownership to her brother Daniel Healy. Later, his cousin Nellie occupied the house and donated it to the Leadville Historical Association. It was restored in 1938 by the National Youth Administration and was presented to the State Historical Society in 1947.
