This house is still standing and in much its original form. Miss Willlams was just 16 when she married Baron de Bodisco, the wedding taking place in Linthicum house fol- lowed by a large reception in the Rus- sian legation, The bride, a beautiful blonde, with | grace and poise, wore a gown of exqui- site brocaded satin and fashioned in the Russian style of that day. Her veil of rare Honiton lace was held by a red velvet coronet, which shimmered with diamonds, and her only other orna- ments were pearl necklace and pin. Her distinguished bridegroom wore his colorful court costume of blue and his several decorations studded with pre- clous stones. The coat had a frill down the front of deep silver lace and there were deep frills of the lace at the cuffs. Bride Given in Marriage by Senator Henry Clay. Senator Henry Clay gave the bride in marriage, and in the wedding party was Senator James Buchanan, who had served as United States Minister to| Russia and afterwards was President of this country.

President Van Buren, during whose administration the wedding took place, as among the guests at the ceremony nd later gave a dinner party in the ‘White House in honor of the Russian Minister and his bride, Baroness de Bodisco, became a leader of Georgetown society as well as that of the National Capital, not then the city of great beauty that it now is. She was instru- mental with the aid of “Harriet Lane of the White House” in making a better understanding between the citizens of Georgetown and those who came to the District of Columbla on business for the Government. Baron de Bodisco gave his handsome wife the rarest of gems which she wore to all state festivities, riding in an open carriage, when the weather permitted, and al escorted by mounted po- licemen. ~She usually wore creamy white satin and costly old lace and was sald to b2 more beautiful than the famous Eugenie and to have the same superior tact and grace. ‘The Minister and Baroness de Bo- disco were lavish in their entertain: | ment, one party standing out in the an- nals of old Georgetown as perhaps the most_brilliant. The reception was in honer of the birthday anniversary of Emperor Nicholas and the guests num- bered 800 and included officials of this ‘Government, diplomats and those resi- dents of Georgetown who moved in fashionable society of that day. The diplomats appeared in their court dress, always colorful, to honor the Emperor whose natal anniversary was being cele- brated. Wife of President Tyler Attends Fete as Guest. The sumptuous hot supper was served at 1 o'clock, the ladies of the company being served at small tables in an “‘apartment” on the second floor of the house, while their escorts gathered on the floor above for their repast. The tables were laid with gold service and scores of servants walted upon the guests. Mrs. Tyler, wife of President John Tyler, wrote in a letter in 1842: “I very seldom go to parties, but, of course, I could not refuse Baroness de Bodisco’s invitation. Her ball was ex- pected to be the grandest affair of the season. Baroness de Bodisco ‘looked lovely and was attired in pink satin and lace, flowers and such splendid dia- monds, stomacher, earrings, breast pin bracelets!—I never saw such beautiful diamonds. Most of the furniture was of European make, and the house was filled with a variety of curios, bric-a- brac and works of art, the china service unsurpassed, the plate magnificent.” Baron de Bodisco retired as Minister in 1854 and remained in Georgetown, where with Baroness Bodisco he occu- pled her family home, Linthisum house. and where he died some years later, be- ing buried in Oak Hill Cemetery ——— Limerick, Ireland, is erscting a me- morial in the public square for the 3.000 men of the city and county who fell in | the World War. l Our Sensational REMOVAL SALE Affords Opporturiities for Tremendous Savings FURS Drastically Reduced come in and participate in the tremendous savings during this Sold Originally to $25 Ladies’ $10.95.

It is an anony- mous gift, the donor preferring her name to be unknown. The clock, which is a very unusual type, stood in the living quarters of the White House dur- ing the Tyler regime and was then taken back to the Tyler home in Vir- ginia. It has never been out of the State since its return there with the re- tiring President until it was placed in the “lounge” of the Woman’s Country Club. It is built not of mahogany, as rly all ancient clocks were, but of a light wood, and instead of having a lovely smooth polished surface is rather rough and at once interesting.
