TIE LATE DUKE OF BEDFORD
The l.te Duke of Bedford was probably the most
Constructive Of his race Lake MS ia'"er nv N"S
cminsphly unducal' as far n, PERSONAL app wa
concerned. In varsity days he developed ep'cre"'

linKuist nor brilliant talker but he probably anew

House of Lords and organized quite q menagei1e al
the house no occupied In the WHO'S Oh '"e
gtewartry He wss q fairly good shot. but preferred
70 shot with the Duchess. who Is herself very expert
msrkswonan. as his sole companion. lie was Tar
more popular In BedfordsMre than his predecessor
but constant il-health made him recluse. II is
curious coincidence that the Duchess. although an
archdeac0ns daughter, Is as fond OF shootihs ana Is
ss good a shot as her predecessor.
Last autumn at Homburg considerable intimacy was
established between Empress Frederick and the late
Duke and Duchess OF Bedford who resided there many
weeks. and sir Edward and Lady Ermyntrude Malet,
were their guests for some time. The Empress became
very fond of the Duchess and formed high opinion
Of the Dukes sbilites, and when Her Majesty came
TO England she endeavored TO draw LORD IavistocR
Is his friends called him, out OF his secuson. Ac-
cord ngy the Duke and Duchess were invited the other
day by the Queen to dine and sleep at Windsor
Castle. and OH Thursday night were to have dned at
Buckingham Palace with Empress Frederick. who
would prsbably have visited them at wOburn before
her departure from England. Although the late Duke
was always q recluse. during the last two months no
had begun to show himself little mole. But his
dislike Of society and its entertainments Was profound
and undsgrised. lie had an ovcrpOwering passion
for saving money but this did not prevent him from
sanconing considerable expenditure for improvements
On his various estates. and he was generous landlord.
