[YSTERY OF THE VANISHED DESMOND FAMILY

Mary De5Lond was born in 1893 and
if living is, therefore, a woman eighty
years old If she died and left children
who are still living they would by now
be middle aged. And inasmuch as her
cousins were all about her own age their
heirs, too, would be about in middle life.
But that is mere speculation.
What became of Mrs. James T. Des-
mond, Of her daughter Mary L., her son
Joseph. her son Charles. her son James.
her son Clement and her liece Mary?

would inherit the last remnant Of the
estate and that she should XIII her sister.
In time al these things came to pass.
I The title became extinct, as prophesied,
and the estates were inherited by Lady
Hood, a daughter of the last earl, who
was a widow and came from India, which
accounted for the white coifed lassie from
the East In driving Lady Hood had the
misfortune to kill her younger sister. The
property passed from the family bit by

possession of the late Sir James Mathe-

Royalty has been entertained at Lewis,
His late Aialesty, King Edward. and
Queen Alexandra were guests Of the own

there. The late Duke Of Edinburgh was
one of the many distinguished visitors
who have enjoyed the hospitality Of the
Matheson family.
One of the features Of the estate OF
Lewis Is the garden, which is renowned

the castle cover six hundred acres. None

Lewis Island is a sportsmau's paradise.
Scattered through its deer forests and its
