GIBSON TO ALTAR
'Diabolical Letter" Hastened
Marriage to Mrs. Pratt,
Says Society Man.

+. NEW YORK, Oct. 22-Preston Glib
son. society man and amateur play
wright, said yesterday that his mar
riage to Mrs. Beatrice NJ. Benjamin
Pratt. was hastened because of a
"diabolical and threatening" letter re-
ceived by her last Friday. The couple
were married the same day at Green
wich. Conn, by a justice OF the peace.
Mr. Gibson said:
In view of the letter, l thought
she should have my protection and
we were. therefore, married without
delay 1t is fair to presume judg-
ing by other letters and threats, that
this one was inspired by the same evil
source which has literally prosecuted
her for some time"
Mr.. Gibson would not diyulge the
contents of the letter other than to
saw IL was most diabolical" and only
by q marriage could he protect his
wife. Mrs. William f. Benjamin, the
brides mother, who is opposed to the
match. when told of the threatening
letter, said:
we certainly would never have
done any such thing. / really know
nothing about the letter threatening
my daughter. There is really nothing
else for me to say"
1t was learned yesterday both Mr..
Gibson and Mrs. Pratt were week
end guests at the home of Ormond C.
Smith, in oyster Bay. just prior to
the wedding. Mrs. Smith said yester-
day that both seemed ideally suited
to each other and could not see whv
the Benjamin family objected.
From another source it was learned
that Mrs. Benjamin had cut off her
daughters allowance. which amount
ed to $4,000 a year. The same in
formant said that Mr.. Gibson had hut
little money In his own right.
The couple planned to go to Cali

probably make their residence there,
but they may postpone this trip in

reports were received here today re.

fetal communique from General
Yudenitch declared he had reached
the city proper from the south, and
that street fighting was going on in
the outskirts.
Other dispatches, however, re-
ported the Bolsheviki not only sue
cessfully resisting the attack on Pet
rograd, but winning victories on
other fronts.
Red Armies Yictors.
While the red armies were keeping
the anti -Bolshevik forces from the
city gates by frequent sorties. II was
said, both Deniken and Koichak re-
ceived set-backs.
In the south the Boisheviki were
reported to have captured Orel and
driven Deniken back to the outskirts
Of Kieff. On Kolchak's front the
Bolsheviki were said to have ad-
vanced fourteen miles in the Kurgan
region, taking 1000 prisoners, and to
have won other successes in the To-
bolsk. Troitsk and Kutanisk sectors.
