Ellery Baker, 60, grew up at Ufton, the 720-acre estate owned by Russell Perkins, where his father was a gardener. Baker said he can't recall that Perkins ever worked, but he did keep busy. "In the spring he would go to Canada, salmon fishing, and rent a stretch of stream," LeFort said. "...In the summer he stayed around....In the fall he'd go to Nova Scotia, bird hunting...in the winter he'd go to Alberta, Ala., hunting....Once in a while he would go to France, or to his New York apartment.
