Water Towers There are seven on grounds, and each was filled with water from its own well. Folklore says that Jessie had them built where her donkey balked in the road...they were used for watering dust on roads, plants and gardens.
About the donkey -- Jessie purchased him from a circus in (former) Czechoslovakia and used him to pull her cart around the grounds on her inspection tours. The donkey would eat the workers' lunches, so Jessie would give those workers a home cooked supper. Cadichon (pronounced CAD E SHON) probably had a little encouragement at times to eat the lunches! The water towers are Judson Tower (1907-08), Tea House (1910), and five small towers built between 1911-14: Builders, Guild, Heifer, Prospect, and Kimen-Pearsall (formerly Teen).
