HER Il YEARS
Affinity Of American Sports
man Says Her Divorce Was
Financed by Him.
BY FORBES w. FAIRBAIRN
Universal Service.

LONDON, July 31.-The strange
story of Mrs. Annie Lillian Lycett'
whose relations with the late Walter
Winans, famous American sports
man, were a sensational feature Of
a recent action by Winans admins
traitor to recover half a million dol
lars given her by the sportsman,
was revealed in the Sunday Express.
"winans had a mad infatuatIon
for me-" said Mrs. Lycett. He
tyrannized over me when I first
met him twenty.seven years ago.
I was then seventeen and married.
He loved me and wanted me to
marry him, but It could not be as
he was already married. But he
separated from his wife. He gave
me valuable presents, but never ac-
cepted anything in return for his
gifts.
He wanted me to live aaprt from
my husband and not marry again.
My husband left me and Walter paid
for the divorce proceedings. Then
he threatened to shoot me and Kill
himself II l left him. 1t became
an almost impossible situation"
Mrs. Lycett then described how
she met and loved her present hus-
band, but, fearful of Winan's jeal-
ousy. was forced to marry secretly
before the war. How she kept WI.
mans in ignorance for many years
Is not revealed, but the climax came
just before Mr.. Winans died, when he
received an anonymous letter in
forming him of her marriage.
From then on his whole thought
was for revenge" she says.
Meanwhile, Winans met and loved
another woman and wanted to take
his gifts back, but Mrs. Lycett re-
fused to deliver them to him after
he had refused to take them when
she once offered them.
81 did 1t all for the best" she
says. II was only afraid that II
my husband knew how ] was being
tyrannized over he would do some
thing rash and Winans would shoot
him.
MY husband had no knowledge
of Winans' gifts and did not know
that Winans even existed, except as
famous sportsman"

NEWARK, N. j., July S1.-"Dear
Mother: Just a few lines to let you

A pretty Newark girl of sixteen
penned these lines and placing
heavy army revolver against her

She lies in the Newark City Hos
pital at deaths door. Her name Is
Philomena Lardiere and she lived at
home with her parents and sisters.
Except for the girls sister, jose
phine, ten years old, no one was in
the house when she fired the shot.
After giving the younger girl drink
of water, she went to her room. A
moment later Josephine heard a shot
and notified neighbors.
The note which Philomena wrote to
her mother just before she shot
herself revealed a tone of resentment
for alleged reproaches from her sis.

thought that death was the only
avenue Of relief.
