Final Courts

Courtesy to His Majesty, rise, glide three steps to the right, courtesy to Her Majesty, rise.

Last week these things were done, in the glittering Throne Room of Buckingham Palace, by 16 U. S. citizenesses and many another, at the two final courts of the London Season.

A decorous novelty was the joint presentation of a U. S. husband & wife, Vice-Admiral & Mrs. Guy Hamilton Burrage, he commanding the U. S. European Squadron. Other U. S. males in attendance peered from a distance at courtesying wives, daughters.

These were: Miss Eleanor Post Close Hutton, granddaughter of the late Charles W. ("Postum") Post, Manhattan; Mrs. John North Willys (Whippet & Willys-Knight), Toledo, Ohio; Miss Mary Stevens Hammond (daughter of the U. S. Ambassador to Spain), Bernardsville, N. J.; Miss Anne Gordon Colby, daughter of ex-Senator and Mrs. Everett Colby, West Orange, N. J.; Miss Anne Washington Ferine, lineal descendant of both the brother and half-brother of George Washington, Baltimore, Md.; Mrs. Ronald Randolph Fairfax, Roanoke, Va.; Miss Mary Seton Lindsay, Long Island, N. Y.; Mrs. John Marshall Slaton, wife of the onetime Governor of Georgia, Atlanta; Miss Alcy Sivyer, Milwaukee; Miss Sylvia Brewster, Miss Charlotte B. Brown and Mrs. Lawrence B. Van Ingen, New York; Mrs. Edward A. Leight, Chicago; Miss Elizabeth Sturges, Providence, R. I.; and the onetime Miss Maude Hunnewell, recent bride of U. S. Charge d'Affairs at London Ray Atherton.
