DIDN'T KNOW SHE WED AN EARL,
Two Romances Of Prominent English
Families.

From the London Mail. .
The festivities at Burghley House, North.
amptonshire, this week recall a romantic
story of long ago in which the beautiful
mansion and the Earl of Exeter of that
far-of day played Q part. 1t concerns
the second marriage Of Henry Cecil, who,
ultimately became Earl OF Exeter
Very unhappy in his first marriage. he
disguised himself and determined that his
next wife should wed him not for his title
or estate, but from disinterested love. In
country cottage to which he retired was
beautiful girl. the landlords daughter.
Very naturally the young couple fell In
love and were married.
1t was just after his marriage to the
rustic beauty that he succeeded to the title
His presence was necessary at his own
residence and he and his girl wife started
on. The young countess, quite ignorant
Of her newly acquired rank, thought IL
was mere pleasure trip and was over
whelmed with establishment at the greeting
accorded to her husband and herself at
several houses at which they stopped.
At last they reached Burghley, in North
amptonshire, and the girl was overwhelmed
with wonder at the beauty Of the place
and at the greetings which again awaited
her at the very gates.
would you like to live here?" asked her
husband carelessly.
Indeed / should; 1t is the loveliest place
I have ever SEEM" his wife replied
When told of her good fortune it was
some time before the bewildered girl could
believe It, SO like fairy tale It seemed
to be.
Another romance of a great family con-
Germs the marriage story of the two Misses
Gordon, who married brothers and be-
came successfully Countesses of Kellie.
Their father lived at Ardoch Castle, site
uated on a high rock overlooking the sea.
One evening he heard a gun fired, evil
IDENTIFY distress signal from a ship In
danger. Procuring assistance, Mr.. Gordon
hurried to the beach, but unfortunately
the vessel had gone down. The sole sur
vivor was an infant girl, washed ashore
In q kind Of crib. Mr.. Gordon brought
the child up with his own daughters and
years afterward, when she had grown up,
another wreck took place on the same spot.
Among the saved was a gentleman who
proved to be the uncle of the child res
cued in former years, who was as matter
Of fact q great hetress.
One of the Gordon girls accompanied tho
young heiress and her uncle to GothenburE,
met Thomas Erskine, and eventually mar
ried him. while younger sister married
Methven Erskine. his brother.
No fewer than seventeen lives interviewed
between the elder OF these and the peer
age yet both the Misses Gordon lived to be-
come In succession Countesses of Kellie. !
