Adele and I went to the hotel. In this
hotel you are not allowed to have men
guests in the room, so we stayed outside
Of the hotel and we were talking. Jack
and were talking on the side and Bobby
and Andy and Adele were talking to-
gether. So then Jack told me he was go
ing outof-town and asked me-and l
kind of blushed, knew that he wanted
to know if he couldn't see me-he wanted
to know If he could see me the next day.
l said yes.
really did want to see him. So
saw him the next day. Then he proposed
again. Now, the fifth time he proposed
was when ] had an engagement with
friend of mine from New York, rather
middle-aged man l knew quite well; his
name was Mr.. Repps. He was coming to
Philadelphia on business in about two
weeks and wanted me to save this Satur-
day for him. don't know the date.
Jack called for me at the stage en-
trance that day and wanted to take me
to dinner, but told him was very, very
sorry, that l would love to go to dinner,
but would not be able to go because !
had made this engagement two weeks be-
fore and could not break the engagement
because the party was waiting for me in
the lobby. Jack was rather huffy about
that. He didn't like me going out with
anybody else. But we really were not
engaged at that time, and right then and
there he says, you are going to marry me
before you leave this town. Then he
told me how much he thought Of me and
how much he loved me, and really took
him very seriously.
Then he said that very next night we
would go out and we would be married.
had not promised the very next night,
but said would marry him before our
show left Philadelphia. So on this night
Of the 25th we had this engagement.
During the show Bobby Berger wrote a
note asking me to get two other young
ladies for Mr.. Gardner and John Sloan,
l believe his name was, and tried to get
Miss Polly Nally. She went with us, but
Miss Forbes could not go-Vera could
not go. Then there were just three girls
and four boys.
After the show we met the boys. They
were outside and had taxi waiting, and
they were going to take us home to the
Hotel Walton. Jack took my arm and
started to assist me in the cab, and he

and she is the sweetest little girl in the
world, and then he got back in the cab
and did not drag him in-how could I
drag a big six-footer all over Philadel-
phia like they say I did? Then we got
back in the cab and this chauffeur, this
stout chauffeur
Q.-Miss Peggy, we don't care about
those details-did you get married there?
A.-No, we didn't get married there
because there was nobody there that
could marry US.
Q.-Then what happened?
A.-Jack said, am sure we won't be
able to get married in Philadelphia. He
said, you have to get license and the
Clerk won't be in the Office until morning
and l insist on getting married tonight.
Bob Berger said, / have an idea, let Us
drive down to Wilmington, Delaware, and
get married there, and Jack said, that is
great. Bob Berger commenced feeling
very i'll and very sick. l had met Bob
before and he had complained of heart
trouble and he said his physician said his
heart was very, very weak and he might
have an attack of heart trouble most any
day. Bob was walking up and down for
the air, and all of a sudden he clutched
at his heart and tainted and Jack and the
assistant chauffeur helped to carry Bob
in the cab and we gave him a drink of
water and we brought him to. But there
was no pulling open of the shirt or any
thing like that, because would not for
minute do that with a man, except to
give him water.
Then we drove on. They were speak
ing about the windows being open. The
windows were closed and there were no
shades drawn. Then we stopped at
Darby. Jack went in to get some cigar
cites and Adele said, bring me glass of
The Washington times., 1922-07-09

also kissed me, and if he had been drink
ing I certainly would have smelled the
liquor when he kissed me.
Jack was afraid if ever left the city
without first becoming his wife, he was
afraid he would lose me and he did not
want to take a chance of losing me, and
now he says he don't want me and know
why he says that
peggy dissolves into tears).
Q.-Now, hold yourself together a
minute. Then what happened?
Ave stayed at the hotel where Miss
Nally was staying and she wanted to 60
upstairs and change her dress, so we
waited a while and Jack and l got i'm
patient and we told Paul and Bobby that
they could go in and wait for Miss Nally,
and Jack and I were going across the
street to the Walton Roof and we stood
together the lobby waiting for them.
We had no trouble getting in the Walton
Roof. All the waiter said was, how many
are in. the party, and took our order. 1
saw no liquor at the party. The boys
were drinking ginger ale, and if they put
liquor in there | would have seen it. I
was sitting right next to Jack and if he
put liquor in there | would have seen it.
Adele and Polly and had lemonades.
We had not been dancing before, so I
danced with Jack because l really en-
joyed dancing with Jack, and finally when
the music stopped and the Walton Roof
was going to close-it was about o'clock.
Then was sitting at the table with Jack
and we were talking. Jack said, now,
listen, Peggy, your show leaves day after
tomorrow. You are going to marry me
tonight, you are going to marry me to-
night before you go out-of-town. He
said, if you love me really and truly you
will marry me tonight. said, of course,
Jack, will marry you tonight, you know
how much I love you. So we got our
hats and coats and he was simply tickled
to death that we were going to get mar
ried, and turned around and said to
Jack in a joking manner, because we have
been married three weeks don't think you
don't have to help me on with my coat.
Polly Nally said, don't be ridiculous, Jack,
Peggy would not marry the best man on
this earth. said, no, Polly, am going
to get married. Adele Gordon said, you
can't get married anywhere in Philadel-
phia tonight. said, well, if we can't we

very much to meet his wife, because Jack
is such a lovely boy his wife must be just
as lovely, so l was awfully pleased about
that. Then we went back to the table
and Jack ate the sandwich. Both the
chauffeurs insisted on sitting at our table,
sc said am not used to eating at tables
with chauffeurs.
Then we drove on and came to the tele-
phone station and it looked so inviting
and we were so cold, and you know that
is quite a ride. We took our shoes off
the first thing and put our feet right on
the radiators to thaw our feet We were
getting very warm. l don't know what
they mean by crap game. l did not see
any dice around there, and later Adele
was writing things on the blackboard.
wrote, John W. Montgomery and Peggy
Gladys U'Dell," and then cancelled off
the letters like you do that. Then later
Jack says he would go up to see where
he could get minister to marry us. If
they were both so drunk how was it that
Bob Berger got telephone book and
picked out certain names and Jack tele-
phoned?
So finally they got the name of this
county clerk and then they spoke to him
and he wanted-let's see-I think they
were exactly ten minutes-I think that
was exactly ten minutes to five when we
called this Mr.. McAllister. He said it
would take him at least an hour at the
least to get dressed, and we said, all right,
We would wait. Then we decided in the
meantime to go out and look up a min
lister. So we got back in the car after
putting our slippers on and we were feel
ing very nice, and Jack did skip out of
the building feeling very good and sing
ing very softly and then assisted me In

will go out of the city and get married.
Q.-Go on.
A.-This Paul Gardner didn't seem to
be a very nice boy. He tried putting his
arm around Polly in the Walton Roof,
and Polly said, if you don't stop that l
am going to have you put out of the
place. l spoke to Jack and told him to
speak to Paul and everything was all
right when we left. After we got down.
stairs Jack said, we will have to get a
cab, and then we got outside we got into
this first cab, which was this gentleman's
cab over there Indicating q chauffeur).
Then we decided that his cab wasn't large
enough and then Jack and got out and
we walked into this cab, and l wasn't
dragging or pulling his shirt open like
they claim did a number of times. We
knew we couldn't get the whole party in
and we got out and were looking for an
other cab. Then Jack spied this cab over
sine over there because it is larger.
Paul Gardner said, Jack, come over
here, and he spoke rather loud. He said,
do you mean to tell me you are going to
get married to a common old chorus girl,
none of those girls are any good. OF
course, I felt awfully hurt about it.
When we got in the cab said, Jack, we
are going to take Paul Gardner and John
Sloan home because do not like their
company. While W were in the cab this
Paul Gardner got very fresh and threat
ened to slap him. When we got to the
Bellevue-Stratford, the chauffeur opened
the door and we let Paul and John out.
They dragged Jack out, and insisted upon
talking to him. He says, all right, will
talk to you if you want, but l am going
to marry Peggy tonight When he got
out heard Paul say, she is nothing but
a common chorus girl, your mother
wouldn't stand for that girl.

spectacle as Gardner's, Sloan's and
Jacks. At least, my brother isn't in the
habit of getting drunk and these chauf-
feurs said
Q.-Never mind about the chauffeurs, I
will attend to them. You tell what hap
pened. You got back in the cab.
A.-When Paul Gardner said about me
being common chorus girl and Polly and
Adele, Jack said, I don't care what she
is, am going to marry her regardless of
what you say. He said, know Peggy
