He proposes to finish his portraits of Mrs. Stephen Clarke and Mrs. Sheffield in New York, and then will go to Buffalo to finish Mrs. Goodyear (rubber). He is also to do Thomas Fortune Ryan, Painter John is considered second only to John Singer Sargent (TIME, March 3.) He was reported to have left London, not in his customary plaid necktie, but in a brown one.
