DUCHESS OF ROxBURGHE
DESIRES IRISH HOME
Wishes to Follow the Fashion Among
the Wealthy of Great
Britain

LONDON, March 1S.-As it is ths
fashion now for wealthy people to have
a residence in Ireland. the Duke and
Duchess Of Roxburghe have determined
TO ind an Irish home. Anticipating an
invitation from the Irish Viceroy to
spend week with him at Dublin
Castle, the Duchess wrote a leading
firm OF house agents having offices in
Dublin and Belfast. asking for par
ticulars OF any eligible mansions that
were to let in any part OF Ireland. but
in the wild picturesque west for pref
erence.
1t appears that the Duchess had read
much in America OF the scenic beauty
or Connemara in which Kylemore
Castle is situated, and she mentioned
1t particularly as one OF the districts
where gshe would like TO reside for ar
least portion Of the year. There are
many. fne mansions in the neiShbor-
hood. but 1t is feared that none OF them
would come up to the requirements Of a
great ducal residence without exten-
sive alterations
The Duchess Of Manchester, together
with Lord Ardilaun and his brother
Lord Iveagh, has so popularized this
particular district that excessive rents
are demanded for houses thar admit Of
living in anything like style
