Letter from Marianne Moore to Hildegarde Watson ; January 25, 1957.
It was a very regal party given by Mrs. Clark Williams (no relative of WCW) – 150 Central Park South. She is a dear lady, very old with snow white hair, very strong, and a skilled hostess – in black velvet with two large salmon roses at the waist. Chinese bird and butterfly wall paper, china figurines ; 'rare' Martha Washington plates and tea-pots, jade dishes ; and pale Chinese brocade settees.
