try another title, despite her un.
fortunate experience as Countess de

opposition of her brother and sister,

Prince Helie de Sagan. The rela-

Of his children who should marry
without the consent of the majority
of the executors of the estate of one
half of their individual allowance.
This is probably the only remaining
alternative. If the marriage cannot
be broken off by reason, it may be
annulled doubtless by revocation of
the bequest which makes Anna any
better than any other woman in the
eyes of the titled snobs who ride into
affiuence by a trade with q few silly
wealthy women on this side the sea.
1t may be that another divorce Scan

guilt of the European aristocracy.
