York's fayorlte and to the intriguing Of
Sarah Jennings, who became his wife,
than to any real merit Of his own. Wo-
men in fact, have played a prominent
part in the fortunes Of the Marlbor-
oughs from first to last. The first duke
founded his fortunes with a gift Of
$4,000 from the Duchess OF Cleveland.
His wife pushed his cause with Queen
Anne when Marlborough was away In
the field, and between the two the vic
tor Of Blenhem received perhaps far
greater reward for doing his duty by his
king and country than any other SOL
der who ever led British army.
Dying the first duke left no son TO
inherit his titles and magnificent prop
critics, and a daughter succeeded to the
same, both finally descending in a
roundabout way mainly through fe-
male heirs to the present bearer Of the
title and owner Of the vast estates
And, coming to times more recent
magnificent Blenheim, the ancestral
seat Of the Marlboroughs which was
secured from Queen Anne ostensibly as
a gift from a grateful nation, was prac-
tically saved to Its owners through two
fortunate marriages with American
helresses There have been few great
Marlboroughs since the first OF the line
dashed across the worlds horizon,
and the eighth, father Of the present
duke, was no exception 10 the rule
Having secured divorce from his wife
mother OF his four children. he married
a beautiful American widow, Mrs
Hammersly, who devoted large por-

refurbshing Blenhem, the ducal fam

quired in the estate the second duchess
generously turned over 20 the present
