The Richest Man in England.

The richest man in England ia the duke
or Westminster, at least this is the common
belief. He is frisky widower OF nearly
60 years, and many are the Eoglish single
women-to say nothing Of the American
who have fancied lie might fancy them
But he can only marry one, accord
ing to the English Law, and he has selected
as his second bride girl young enough to
be his granddaughter, the Lady Catherine
Cavendish, daughter of Baron Gresham.
It matters little that the families are already
connected by marriage, brother of the
bride being the husband Of the daughter Of
the bridegroom. The relationship will be
a little mixed, and the family tree may puZ
zle future students of it.
