| Tiffany/Duncan comment: |
Tiffany 1910 calls this the Poe Memorial Window because Anne Johnson Hough (Mrs. John Prentiss) Poe was likely the person who organised the window with the Tiffany company [TIFF1910, DUNC1980, BA1904, UDC1905, BS1905A, DEDUCED] |
| Comment: |
The window was originally supposed to be unveiled on 9 Mar 1905 [BS1905A, BA1905A] |
