The walls in the 
library of the Colby 
residence are partly 
covered with a frieze 
showing scenes from 
the old French legend 
of Melusine, the fig¬ 
ures being painted on 
a background of deep 
ultramarine. Below 
this the walls are 
paneled in chestnut. 
Heavy books lie on 
slanting shelves, with 
other books in the 
paneled cupboards be¬ 
low

of inlaid walnut gives 
distinction to the Wil¬ 
liamson dining room. 
The walls are deep

panels. A two-lone 
old-blue rug is used, 
and the over-curtains 
are of changeable old- 
blue and gold taffeta. 
On the table is laid a 
runner of antique 
Mandarin silk in 
gold with a n tique 
tassels. E. J. White
