Fashions, Gardens, and Society at Metropolitan Events
The piece surveys Mrs. Hay’s spring garden on Sixteenth Street, notes of crocus hues and lawn scenes with grandchildren, then catalogs attendees at New York’s Metropolitan Opera in box seating including Mrs. Satterlee, Mrs. Schiff, and Mrs. Gould among others. It moves to etiquette on gift giving, then profiles royal interest in coin collecting, Susan B. Anthony gowns, and a cameo on a Virginia governor’s courting lore. The column ends with society-news blurbs on Cavendish’s bigamy aura, Princess Adalbert’s yacht orders, and a Baltimore divorce suit, concluding with Downey’s carriage ads.
