They, too, were divorced after the war, but still fond of the diplomatic high life, Maggie Biddle set up a Paris salon just off the fashionable Boulevard St. Germain. The 18th century mansion was beautifully furnished, its walls hung with Renoirs, Utrillos, Constables and Gauguins; its guests dined off silver plates dipped in gold. Some of the guests: Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower, General Alfred Gruenther, Papal Legate Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli (now Pope John XXIII), the Duke and Duchess...
