No Baron Seymour.
There is no Baron Seymour in tho
English peerage, except that that title
Duke Of Somerset, not used by h.m-
self, but able to be worn by his son
as a courtesy title. Blu Charles Angus
tus Somerset was no son of the Duke
of Somerset.
At the Russell hotel the manager
says Somerset registered there on

and signed the register as c. Somer-
set. !
No. "a Upper woburn place is q
middle class boarding house near Eu-
ston railroad station. The
said Adeline and her mother stayed
there from June IL to 16. She remem-

began during a visit to Europe, eli

and ended Utmost in days. Immediately
after the wedding the bride returned to
Kansas City. and Somerset ostensibly
went to break the news of his marry
ing an American girl to his titled
mother, who, he said, he was sure
would be angry with him. She has
never seen him since. She always UNI
derstood that the reason was that he
was threatened with disinAeritance.
When the news that his daughter
had married an English lord wax
cabled to Craig Hunter, the girls
father, he said:
ut was a complete surprise to me. ]
heard from my wife that Lord Somer-
set was madly in lov with the girl
but I did not think seriously Of It. Now
l come to compare the meager de-
scriptions l have received Of the BRIDE
groom with those of the son of the
Lady Somerset, 1 am convinced they
are one and the same person. I hope Il
IS not true"
