 tonducted the inquest into the death of Harry Lloyd', strange woman who for thirty years posed as the husband of her sister, expressed the opinion today that the woman had practiced the deception to save the honor of her sister and of the latter s J daughter. The inquest developed with practical certainty that Harry Lloyd was Marie Le Roy. the daughter Of a ! Belgian army officer. She came to tIondon nearly fifty years ago and as- [ sociated herself with Ia. number of ad- yanced singers. She earned her nv- ing by teaching French.
 S Thirty years ago Marie Le Roy drop | ped out of sight and Harry Lloyd tappeared Inquiries were made in ieducational circles for Le Roy but none knew where she was and she was soon forgotten.

The mother died twenty [ years ago. Father" and daughter \ continued to live together.

Beverly, Mass, July S-Withi the sun baking down on the Myopia golf course President Taft today is playing the second round of a best ball match with John Hays Hammond, his golf antag- onist, and Captain A. w. Butt. his military aide. The first series were finished yesterday. each player having a game to his credit. The President won first and MT. Hammond and Cap tain Butt yesterday.

 Charlie Taft was out today with his new motor boat which was built in Washington and which arrived here yesterday. It has small 1-2 horse power engine but it is large enough to take him anywhere in the vicinity and get back in time for lunch, some thing which his sailing dory Bandit" could not be depended upon to do.
 It was very quiet at the Tat sum mer home today. Mrs. Taft and sev- eral guests who arrived last night for a short stay at Burgess Point, and Miss Helen took a short walk along the shore.

 "A few minutes later viarengo found me and saying, You there, my cousin? I'm going to let you die' He grabbed me by the throat, threw me down. with his knees on my chest, and still choking me repeated his
 threat to kill me- Somebody at last
 pulled him off and I ran home. saw the knife on the table, took it and went outside. Mrs. Viarengo saw me with the knife and said: What are you going to do?'
