May 12th., 1938, Dear Mrs. Dillman: It is a pleasant duty upon my return to New York, to thank you for the very delightful reception which was given me at your home last Monday. I am sorry that I was not able to pay my respects to you personally, but Mrs. Standish took particular pains to welcome us both in the most charming manner. I am still under the spell of the beauty and grandeur of your home, and though I had heard so much in the past few years of what you were accomplishing, I did not anticipate an ensemble where tastes and magnificence are so closely allied! Were it just for the enjoyment I had, please accept my sincerest thanks. Mrs. Standish was kind enough to tell me that you expected to be in New York towards the end of the month and I do hope that I shall have then an opportunity of seeing you. Believe me to be, Yours very sincerely, (Germain Séligmann) Mrs. Hugh Dillman, 12 Lake Shore Road, Grosse Pointe, Michigan
