T, ,eta Sullivan. who died a counle o
months ago, knew the queen of Belgium
BECAUSE she was in deep mourning 1ol
J,eta. she did not attend any OF th'
receptions given for the queen ana so
if you please. the queen was graSiou
Cor little while and Mrs. Hoffman
asked Mrs. Sullivan, Frances an am
Elaine to go on and meet the queen Una
afternoon, which they, did. .. M,
The queen was perfectly sweet an'
so sympathetic about the sorrow tina
had come to the family in young NJ
Hoffman's early death. She wrote, he
name on the hyleaf Of the prayer bool
which Leta had carried at her weddinl
instead of bouquet, SO Mrs. Sullivan
has that to keep.
