CHARLOTTE'S
NEWS LETTER

In the very near future the Taylor
house on Madison avenue will be closed
and will remain with drawn shutters
for many weeks, perhaps until late in
the fall. On Wednesday Mr.. Henry
Forester Taylor sailed on the "Ocean-
*" " for Europe and expects to remain
in the old country for six weeks or
longer. He was accompanied by Mr..
Charles Chapman, and the length of
their stay abroad will depend largely
on Mr.. Taylor's health. He is not very
robust just now, but it is expected
that this trip will prove beneficial.
Mrs. Taylor leaves the middle of the
month for Little Moose Lake in the
Adirondacks. This is where the Adiron-
dack League Club makes its headquar-
ters and where Mrs. Taylor and child
rem will spend the summer. They have
been members of the club for many
years and usually Mr.. Taylor has ac-
companied them, but this season he
has concluded to try the European re-
sorts.
And, speaking of sailings, few 9TH
er Morristonians left this week. Mrs
Robert G.. Bushnell and Miss Eleanor
Bushnell sailed Thursday on the
/" Grosser Kurfuerst. They will stop
at Plymouth, England, and after a
short visit in the domain of Edward
VII. will go the continent for the sum-
mer. Just where they will pass the
months Of June, July and August has
not been decided. They make no itin-
erary for their tour, but go where fan
cy leads them. On the same boat with
them go Miss Marian Walker and her
sister They also will spend the sum-
mer on the continent.
Cards announcing the wedding of
Miss Anna lizard Watts and Mr.. Henry
Shaw are just out and the date is set
for June Is. 1t is to be a church we'd
ding, after all, and will take place in
the South Street Presbyterian Church
at four O'Clock in the afternoon. Un-
doubtedly the church will be packed
to the doors as invitations are out for
the full seating capacity of the edifice
1t may not be generally known that
firm of Post & Flagg and is one of the
rising young men of "the street."
He was admitted to the firm about a
year ago and has since proved his worth
in many tight place.
The last of the spring musicales was
held Tuesday morning at the home of
Mrs. Edward A. Day on Madison ave-
nue., the soloists being Miss Martina
Johnstone and Mr.. Herbert Wither-
spoon. Miss JohnStone is a violinist
with an international reputation, hay
ing made the tour of two continents
with Sousa and his band. 1t is to be
regretted that there will be no more
music now until fall, and Miss Hop
kins is deserving the thanks of the
music lovers for her work in connec-
tion with these affairs. 1t was mainly
through her efforts that these music
ales we're given. A few of those seen
Tuesday are Mrs. John l. Waterbury,
Mrs. Edward P. Thebaud. Mrs. Peter
H. Ballantine, Mrs. c. w. McAlpin,
Mrs. Livingston Rowe, Mrs. Robert
Dumont Foote, Mrs. Herman Behr,
Mrs. Louis A. Thebaud, Mrs. Alexan-
der Harvey Tiers, Misses Vernam,
Behr, Fuller, Dean, Foote and Little.
Something out of the ordinary was
the little supper which Mrs. Herman
Behr gave Sunday night at the Golf
Club. 1t was rather a family gather
ing and was strictly informal, invita-
tions for the evening being given by
phone. Miss Mollie March was the
guest of honor, and besides her there
were present eleven others.
Last Friday night Mr.. and Mrs. d.
Raft Richardson entertained at dinner
at the Golf Club. 1t was not an elab-
crate function, being merely the club
table d. hote and club decorations
The guests were the Misses Bryce,
Messrs. William Raymond and James
Pierce, of Brooklyn, and Mr.. Halsted
Little.
