of Warwick. The present holder of
the title Is his great-great-grandson
and fifth Earl Of the Greville line.
Earl Seldom Heard Of
1t Is not the earl who is Of I'M
portance in this generation, how
ever, but the countess. Lady War
wick has scintillated ever since her
marriage in 1881, while the Earl is
only occasionally heard from or Of.
At first it was her beauty and social
gifts that made her prominent, She
was Frances Evelyn Maynard, oldest
daughter Of the Hon. Charles May
nard, son and heir Of Viscount May
nard. Her father died before his
father, and the title became extinct,
but Lady Warwick inherited the
Maynard estate, including Easton
Lodge and $4,000 acres in Essex,
valuable coal mining property and
an income Of s150,O00 year. Her
mother married a second timo the
Earl of Rosslyn and Lady Warwick
is thus half sister of the Duchess
of Sutherland.
When Miss Maynard was present
ed at court In 1880 the court writer's
went into ecstasies over the graceful
manner in which she made her
"curtsey to the Queen" A few
months later rumor fastened on
Prince Leopold as her future hus-
band, but it was Lord Brooke, heir
to the Earl Of Warwick, she mar
ried, while Prince Leopold was best
man at the wedding in Westminster
Abbey. Daisies were an important
feature Of the brides costume and
a versifier Of the day wrote:
IN THE ABBEY
To Wcstminster's time-honor'd pile
All courtly London came,
And eye could mark in stall and aisle
Full many witching dame;
In beauty's conscious pride,
Methinks tho fairest of the fair
Was the young daisy" bride.
Lady Brooke, as she was then,
survived this to become q leader in
the Prince Of Wales's set. She was
so much leader and so marked out
for the attentions Of the Prince that
Princess Alexandra declined to meet
her, and there was sometimes good
deal of embarrassment when, after
Princess Alexandra had accepted an
invitation to dinner and then found
-, that Lady Brooke's name was on the
list of guests, the Princess de-
clined to attend unless the offensive
name was removed. This situation
was in measure responsible for
Lady Brooke's name being brought
into the Tranby Croft baccarat
scandal
The Prince Of Wales had prom
ised to stay with the Duke and
Duchess Of Portland at Welbeck
Abbey for Doncaster race week, and
week or 80 before the races the
Duke sent the Prince the projected
list Of guests. 1t came back with
the name Of Lady Brooke added;
and the Duchess Of Portland, who
sympathized with Princess Alexan-
dra, promptly took it off. The Prince
declined to stay at Welbeck Abbey
and it looked as though he would
not go to the races, but Mrs. Arthur
Wilson asked for the privilege of
entertaining him at Tranby Croft
with anybody he wanted to invite.

posrulant for holy orders and matric-
ulated at the Western Theological
Seminary, one Of the schools Of this
church.
AL this time was actively en-
gagged in work for the church and
much interested in missions. Wher-
ever I lived ] made it point to de-
vote myself to the work of the mission
that most needed my help.
Then | went to Grand Rapids, where
worked as manager ana editor of
The Evening News from 1897 to 1904,
during which time I was a deacon
having been SO ordered in 1895 I
worked in two Of the parishes and III
fact. 1t was the prospect OF great
work among newsboys that took nc TO
Grand Rapids in the first place.
Ministers TO 100 Newsboys
at was great work. There were
200 new boys, some no longer active
in that work, who were minlstered to
By the mission and it's club. We finally
erected large building for the boys,
and it was splendidly equipped for
got to tell you that years before
had been for brief time at Christ
Church, New Brighton, and at St.
Johns, Clifton.
while / was at Grand Rapids
Staten Island. 1t came from St. An
drew's Church, a delightful old parish
founded in the reign of Queen Anne
and chartered by her. In all this time
l had not been advanced to priests
orders. But still was called as rector
of the parish, and it became necessar,
for me to be priested. II was nearly
eighteen months after I received the
call before l finally returned to Staten
Island. One year after l was settled
as rector on Staten Island I was made
archdeacon. -Four years later-four
years after | had been priested-I was
elected suhragan bishop of this dio-
cese. Practically my whole life has
been given to the service of the
Church.
Succeeds DR.. Greer
He was consecrated suffragan bishop
on February "a, 19t1-the first suf-
fragan bishop New York ever had
and served efficiently in that scapacity
until September, 1919, when he was
chosen bishop to succeed DR.. Greer,
to whom as sufragan he had been
practically an assistant
Several meetings Of the clergy and
laity were held and there vas some
quite informal canyassing in Bishop
Burch's behalf. The rural parishes
unit for the suffragan; and their unity
elected him.
1t is an axiom among churchme n
that vote of the 1aity sticks. Clergy
men are supposed TO be stubborn; but
laymen who are interested in church
matters are traditionally more so. The
first ballot showed clear majority of
the laay for Bishop Burch and one
shrewed delegate said: "it is Bishop
