married Jones wister, member Of the

Mrs. Wister Is proud Of her blue
blood and has always moved In social
circiss which the rest Of the Weight
mans, with all theif wealth, were un.
able to enter. After her marriage to
Mr.. Wister her social prominence be-
came all the more marked. This was
one cause Of alienation between Mrs.
Wister and her sister-in-law. Mrs. Wal
ker. who was unable to make q social
hit Another cause was due to a pc
culiar incident in the history Of the
family. The elder Weightman was al
ways very fond Of Mrs. William
Weightman. Jr., and after his sons
death he made proposal Of mar
rage to her. She held him In esteem;
but as he was then eighty years Of
age, she deemed bis offer Of marriage
absurd and rejected It. The old gen.
tleman felt piqued. and, though she
afterward sought and secured his con-
sent to her marriage to Mr.. Wister,
he never again was on close terms
with her, and It Is alleged that Mrs.
Walker encouraged her father to give
Mrs Wister the cold shoulder.
However, 1t Is asserted that ON the
