stained glass window came from the home of Horace B. Peck
  This stained glass window came from the home of Horace B. Peck.  His home, built in 1889 and located on South Rose Street at the site now occupied by the Kalamazoo Public Library, served as the  Kalamazoo Public Museum from 1927 until 1958. The window was removed when the house was demolished in 1959 for the Kalamazoo Public Library and Museum Building.  The window is now on display at the Kalamazoo Valley Museum.
