Watfach q Hope-Gentlemen You know mt
TOO well to suppose me captious in making the
complaint do Of omissions in connection wi Ii
your notice Of The comparatively new and ele
CANT establishment to be opened shortly by n,

beauties and accommodations of the House

Schutter and kahlert, whose beautiful desigc
for the ceiling of the ladies' drawing room,
and the entire execution of the extep sion d L
! ing rooms, adds 80 much to the decorativ
character of the House. / have rarely vii
messed such beautiful embellishments, and
am assured that you will 80 consider ther
upon revisit to the establishment of IL
