feet wide by 134 feet In depth. II has a
splendid hall and a magnificent white mar
BILE staircase. The reception rooms and Il
brary are also remarkably fine. The house
contains a valuable collection or pictures,
chiefly old masters.
1t is expected the ambassador and Mrs
Reid will do great things in the way of
entertaining. on which occasion the house
will present scene of great brlllianCy.
The only disadvantage the place has IS that
its approach is somewhat awkward for car
