They Must Have Been Perfect Ladies"
In Those Days.
One OF the most notorious female
gamblers of the eighteenth century was
Miss Pelham, the daughter of the
prime minister, says Temple Bar. She
not only ruined herself at cards. but
would have beggared her sister Mary
as we'll had not their friends inter-
vened and insisted on the sisters sep

full account Of poor Miss Pelham sit
ting up all night at the club without a
woman, losing hundreds a night and
her temper and beating her head"
Another writer says that the unhappy
woman often played with the tears
streaming down her cheeks. Lady
Mary Compton, an old maiden lady, a
contemporary of Miss Pelham and, like
her, addicted to gambling, had the
same propensity to tears. When she
lost. we are told, she wept bitterly
mot for the loss ITSELF" she was care
full to explain, "but for the unkindness
of the cards." Both ladies, when luck
went against them, lost their tempers,
as did many others, and among them

tirement from the stage, lived at
Twickenham, in a cottage lent her by
Horace Walpole. The place had then a
reputation for quiet card parties. In

one of the guests and happened to have
for her opponent an old lady with very

The train sped on, the afternoon
shadows heightened. The express
stopped at few stations on Its rapid
Journey. and, as one after the other OF
these hating places was passed with
out a sign from Miss Brarscombe, l
began to conclude that her destination
was the same as my own-or, was she
only sitting out the fellow-passengers,
not one of whom had left US?
The question was presently answered
in a startling and unexpected manner.
Motion, large busy junction, was
reached. We were on the point OF
leaving 1t again after three minutes
halt, when Miss Branscombe, with a
hurried glance at the platform, stared
to her feet, and before could assist or
prevent her, she had snatched her bag
from the opposite seat, beckoned to
a passing porter, and left the carriage

just in time, mad with disappointment
