Description
Autograph letter signed. Says she [Nell Dorr] hates women’s luncheons. Speaks of how “fabulously rich” Cuba is. Speaks of attending a christening with its pageantry and of holding the “royal baby” while standing before the cardinal. Tells that being invited was a great honor and talks of Olga and Alfred and the baby Alfred. Says Olga’s work is astonishing, but that their home suffers from her lack of attention. Says any young American mother could teach her about mothering and Dorr is sure Elizabeth of England is not as helpless as Olga.
