Hubbard Christopher's almost identical cousin, Elliott lives at The Harbor with his first wife Alice Jessup in the Berkshires, north of New York City. He opens his home to male artists, mostly Yale Skull and Bones friends. The couple have a son, Horace. Elliott introduces Hubbard to the Briton who offers to help him enter Germany using Elliott's passport. After the war, Alice learns that Elliott has a lover and divorces him, taking half of the paintings. He marries a younger painter, Emily, who bears him a son, Julian, but then dies young of cancer.
