Report Grey
Soon to Wed
Lady Glenconner, Noted
Beauty, May Become
Wife of Viscount.

Gossip from London declares that
Yiscount Grey of Fallodon will soon
marry Lady Glenconner. Lady Glen
conner is the widow of the first
baron of that line, Edward Priaulx
Tenant who died in November
1920. He was a brother of Mrs. AS
suith-
Lady Glenconner. a sister Of the
late George windham, NJ. P, once
chief secretary to Ireland, possesses
great beauty and Is a brilliant mu-
sician and an author. Her latest
book. The Earthen Vessel" pub
Bshed last January. would go to
show that a group of spirits in the
astral plane has adopted a new plan
Tor communicating with relatives
on earth. At least so says Sir Oliver
Lodge, who wrote a preface to The
Earthen Vessel"
Lady Glenconner's son. Lieut.. Ed
ward Windham Tenant, was killed
In action in 1916. She writes that
In one OF the spirit messages sent
her Edward referred her to page q
Of q book in the library of a coun-
try house. Looking up the volume
she read on page % this message:
What would I not give to be
with you and comfort you, dearest
mother"
The famous medium, Mrs. Osborne
Leonard, through whom the message
came, had never been in the house
mentioned 1t Is most unlikely that
she knew of the existence of the
book In the library. This Is only
one of a number of similar so-calIed
book tests" Sir oliver Lodge says
In his preface:
i''The new spirit scheme to get
messages through to us from the
other side cannot be attributed to
any ordinary recognized variety OF
subconscious activity on the part
o. the medium nor to telepathy OF
mtad reading between the medium
and the person receiving the mes
sages. There is even evidence that
the reading matter of the next days
newspapers can be perceived and
dictated by spirits, provided the
material is already set in type"

cratic. intellectual set in psychic
research.

was as complete q success as the
first and about the same size, and
there was dancing and everything"
just like at the first party. The
only thing that did not come quite
up to the mark was the weather,
which was threatening all morning
and kept everybody-not to men,
ton Mrs Harding-wondering un-
til the last minute whether the
party would be given inside or out,
and had the ladies all upset about
what they would or wouldn't wear.
And every sort of a costume was
worn. from the filmiest of lace and
chiffon frocks to velvets and wraps
of all weights, while men wore
anything from overcoats-the
French ambassador had on an over
coat-to white flannel suits and
suits of linen. The sun came out
brighter and brighter as the after
noon wore on and everything was
nne- Everyone seemed to be in such
good spirits because the sun was
shining and also were happy to be
at the party, for IT was a lovely one.
