By JAMES c. YOUNG.
A "MoST GORGEOUS" IRISH
BEAUTY.
IRISH

WHEN we read the story of @he
w vampire who devours mems
hearts perhaps we should pause and
wonder why she became a vampire.
There was the case of the most gorge
u Lady BleSsington,' as an imagnl-
alive admirer called her. But she WIS
not born Lady Blessington, or Lazy
anything else. Her father was a
drunken, roistering squire of Upper
airy, and Marguerite one of seven emil
dren. He used to beat her with d
heavy strap, and perhaps she was gIaa
when he married her TO Il British army
captain from the nearby garrison. Tins
captain was a druukard and half IN
sane. He beat poor Marguerite worse
thar had her father. She fled to the
parental roof, and the father ordered
her back to the captain.
Then Marguerite disappeared. Her
career as a vampire had begun. We
find her at twenty, one Of the beauties
of Dublin. Sir Thomas Lawrence
painted a picture of her which made
both famous. She had several lovers
before meeting the earl Of Blessing
ton. peer and man of fashion. He
still held a large part of a once vast
estate. BleSsington married her and
they opened house in st. James square,
London. In 1922 the couple went to
Paris, where She met the Count dor
say, then eighteen years Old and one
of the talented diIettantes of the
