Queen Marie eager to land

October 16, 1926

Having gotten rid of her cold, Queen Marie of Roumania took a swim today in the pool on the SS Leviathan. She was joined in the pool by her son, Prince Nicholas, and her daughter, Princess Ileana.

She had lunch with Captain Hartley. Mrs. Reginald Vanderbilt was also at the captain's table.

The Queen said she enjoyed her time on the ship, and she signed autographs for children. She has also enjoyed the sunshine, sitting on deck, knitting and chatting with fellow passengers.
The SS Leviathan is expected to dock in New York City tomorrow.
