The house was built by the late Mr..
and Mrs. Mccormick when that Sec

almost in the country. The pur-
chase was made in the autumn of
1884 shortly after the arrival OF
Senior Oswaldo Aranha as Am

The house was closed much of the
time after the departure late in
April, 1888, of Senior Aranha, now
minister of foreign affairs of his
country, until the arrival of the pres
ent Ambassador in March of this
year. The only entertaining in the
Embassy in that time was the large
reception which was given last sum-
mer for Foreign Minister Aranha
during his visit here. The De Mar
tins have almost transformed the
interior of the Embassy with their
many treasures from the Far East
as we'll as number of the Senhora's s
own works. She is a gifted sculp-
tress and one of her first acts after
arriving here was to set aside room
in the Embassy where she could
model each morning, and she devotes
a certain amount of time every day
to her art work
The Ambassador accompanied
Senhora de Martins to New York
and during the brief time before she
sailed they were in touch with Sen

foreign minister and Senhora de
