By sharing.your experiences from the many years you devoted .to the United Nations, you have done a great service to your colleagues who continue to toil, often in difficult circumstances, with little recognition of the value of their efforts. Allow me also to express my appreciation to you and Mary for your support for the United Nations -- the spirit that continues to guide your work is an inspiration.

He uses soft and subtle colors and has painted scenes of the places where he has lived and worked, including New England, the West Indies, and France. A former international diplomat turned artist, Jean Richardot has travelled in many parts of the world on as- signments for the United Nations and also the Department of State. He was born in New York but was raised and educated in France. After painting on and off since the fifties and brief- ly studying portraiture at night with Sidney Dickinson at the Art Students League in New York, he turned to serious painting some seven years ago. He studied in Paris with Mac Avoy, an internationally known portraitist, now the presi- dent of the Salon d'Automme, and with Yves Brayer, a land- scape painter much in vogue at the present time. He has also worked with Walter Richards of New Canaan, Connec- ticut and has participated in various workshops in Vermont with Jack Pellew; in Cornwall, England with Bernard Evans,- and at the Atelier de Seguret, Provence, France, a meeting of international painters. Jean Richardot is a member of Middlebury Artists, Inc., and the Friends of Art at Middlebury College in Vermont of which he is a Board member. He also belongs to the Soci- ety for the Arts of New Canaan, Connecticut, exhibiting in group shows at the Carriage Barn. He has had several solo exhibits in Vermont and his works have been shown with the Nauset Painters in Orleans on Cape Cod as well as at the Annual International Art Show of UNICEF at the United Nations headquarters in New York. Mr. Richardot's paintings are being purchased more and more by art lovers. His free-flowing style has been compared by some to that of Raoul Duf iy. The work of Jean's uncle Lucien Bleyfus (1876-1953), a noted French postimpression- ist landscape painter, has also inspired him towards start- ing a new career in painting. In the words of Tom Maher in the magazine Profiles — 'Jean Richardot has returned to the work that first drew his interest and is happily pur- suing it with fervor and success." e's (Emuri of % ; (ftmnrig af jNefa SURROGATES' CHAMBERS 31 CHAMBERS STREET NEW YORK, NY 1OOO7 RENEE R.

Kofi Anan Secretary General c/o Elisabeth Lindenmayer United Nations Room S-3802-E New York, NY 10017 Dear Kofi: After almost 30 years it was, indeed, a delight to see you again at Bella's memorial service. I am pleased that I pursued you and verified that my memory has not failed. I enclose a brochure which describes my court and contains some photographs of this extraordinary landmark building. It is well worth a visit - you get to see me and the court - or you can show me your august offices. In either event, I would love to exchange stories about the years since we last saw each other.

  • Cadwallader Colden
    CADWALLADER COLDEN A REPRESENTATIVE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY OFFICIAL BY ALICE MAPELSDEN KEYS, Ph.D. Neirt ^axk THE COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS THE MACMILLAN COMPANY, AGENTS LONDON: MACMILLAN & CO., Ltd. 1906 All rights reserved Copyright, 1906, By the MACMILLAN COMPANY. Set up and electrotyped. Published October, 1906. Norfaooti PrrgB J. 8. Gushing & Co. — Berwick & Smith Co. Jforwood, Mass., U.S.A. F r The monograph which Miss Keys has prepared on Cadwallader Colden, and which is now published, is distinctly an original con- tribution to the history of New York in the eighteenth century. It has been written almost wholly from first-hand sources, and of those a large part still exist only in manuscript. It throws light on a period of history hitherto little studied and imperfectly under- stood. Its aim is neither wholly historical nor wholly biographical, but is rather a combination of the two. It is the study of a long official career considered as an illustration of the political and social system which then existed in one of the leading provinces of America. HERBERT L. OSGOOD. 308 V PREFACE It would be idle to affirm that patriotism depends on knowledge, or even on tradition ; it would be equally idle to deny that a sense of kinship with a country's past, springing from at least a general familiarity with its development, and sustained by many visible reminders of its history, has much to do with the making of good citizens. Surely, in the face of much contrary evidence, England's storied cities have had a large share in forming the character of her people ; while here in America, despite political corruption and social frivol- ity, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts stand for the ideas for which their fathers fought to an extent perhaps impossible were not the old houses and halls in which these men lived and spoke still so full of their spirit.
