Ice Palace Evening and a Meeting of Townes and Barnes
Jane observes Frederick Townes’s world of wealth and flirtation as Eloise and Adelaide stir the room. Edith arrives distressed by reporters, while Jane grows closer to Evans and contemplates a sisterly bond rather than romance. The chapter closes with plans for tea at the Willard and a new sense of independence for Jane.
