I wanted to share this family photo of Henry Westbrook with the community.

This was a gift from (I believe) Susan Westbrook to her husband Henry, and passed down to their daughter Francis (later passed down to Virginia, and then to Robert, my grandfather). 

The song is I Love You Truly, written by Carrie Jacobs-Bond, the first song written by a woman to sell over a million copies of sheet music.
