her mother were entertained at Blen-
helm palace, the dukes ancestral home.
She was courted by the young noble
man from the outset. She must have
encouraged him, for she was not many
months home when he came over the
sea to win her.
Mrs. Oliver H. P. Belmont, formerly
Mrs w. K. Vanderbilt, took the lead
in pointedly entertaining the duke, be-
traying the mothers aspirations for
her daughter. Marble House, her
splendid home at Newport, was the
scene of many social affairs of I'M
wonted brilliancy. The duke paid such
open court to the young heiress that
it required no cleverness to tell that he
seriously contemplated carrying her
away to his English castle.
The real victor in the pleasant inter-
national affair was Mrs. Belmont. Her
pretty but shy and unworldly wise
daughter had made as brilliant match
as any mother might dream of. 1t was
all practically due to her skillful gen.
eralship, in which the science of di-
plomacy had been carried to its ut
most, and a tact of the highest order
had been exercised. She had won de-
spite her own recent unfortunate do
nestle affairs, which had long kept So
ciety's tongue busy, and which had
finally resulted in her divorcing Will
liam K. Vanderbilt and following 1t
hastily by her marriage to Oliver H. P.
Belmont. In this respect she could
meet the duke on somewhat equal
grounds, for there had been domestic
infelicity in the great house of MARI
borough
The eighth duke had been divorced.
1t was then that he married Lily Price

daughter OF Commodore Price. U. S. N,
