Greetings!
 | | Paul Harris, the Founder of Rotary= |
"My wife and I have tried to make the best possible use of `Comely Bank.' We have entertained scores of Rotarians from all parts of the world, sometimes seating at our table guests from as many as eight different countries at one time. In honor of our guests, we have planted many trees in our friendship garden, and, in many instances, guests so honored have passed to the Great Beyond, but the trees still stand, as memorials to our friendship." Paul P. Harris, "My Road to Rotary" 1947, Chapter 38 |

Rotary Global History Fellowship is a supporter of the Paul and Jean Harris Home Foundation, both financially and from our website. See our own visit to Comely Bank as part of our 10th anniversary www.rghf101010.org and support the preservation of this Rotary landmark.
Yours for RGHF,
