CHAPTER v.
CONTINUED from Last Sunday

CONTINUED from Last Sunday
by Weekly,
Tn my chapter last week told something of the
rather wild career Of young Lord Craven-Lord
Ellington, or "Ufy," as he was called before his
father died and he inherited his present title of Lord
Craven. 1t quite in keeping with his youthful
exploits that he should have eloped with the daugh-
ter of Scotch town clerk.
And in simple justice to myself it is only
fair to discuss this runaway marriage Of the young
woman who was to play such an important part in
my utter discontinue and the complete upset of the
repeated avowas of young Craven that he was hope
cSsly estranged from his wife and loved only me-
Young Lady Craven was Miss Mary Williamina
George, daughter of William George, Town Clerk of
Iu,ergordon, in Scotland She prefers now to be
c"'led Nina, and she was certainly a very charming,
relty, fascinating girl. She "Ufy." They
married, but they have not been happy in their
domestic life.
Nina Lady Craven, has called me an adventures
But is this fair? If she and her young husband
had already separated and she had not only an
nounced her intention, but had actually taken steps
to divorce her husband before ! ever saw hm-then
can scarcely be accused Of having broken up their
home.
listened to the persuasive arguments and pitifuI
appeals of Lady CraVens reckless husband-and
abandoned an honorable man of the highest social
position and great wealth to marry a rather ire
sponsible young man Of far less social position and
bankrupt. An adventures does not usually throw
away possessions such | had for the humiliation
scandal, poverty and hardship which followed
have been guilty Of enough, without being made
to suffer accusations ! do not deserve ! did elope
with Lord Craven-but did not invade his home or
take him away from his wife To prove this it seems
only fair to me to review the hasty marriage and
unhappy life Of Nina and her husband
Young Craven was nineteen years old when he
eloped with the Scotch beauty, and his unexpected
marriage to girl Of middle class family shocked
his noble relatives and the immensely wealthy Brad

best wishes for their future happiness. If they
come north, shall be pleased to meet them"
The marriage very severe shock to the
whole Bradley Martin family. The young Lords
grandmother, Mrs. Bradley Martin, had formed the
idea that he ought to marry rich American girl,
and thus continue the process of restoring the ancient
house of Craven.
On the other hand, his mother, Cornelia, Lady
Craven, thought that her quite capable of
comforting domestic happiness some princess of
the royal family-presumably the Princess Mary.
The Cravens at this time quite intimate with
the royal family The present Earl was very friendly
with the young Prince of Wales, who thought great
deal Of him as billiard player
Then young Lord Ellington was hurried away to
the front In 1917 his wife became the mother of
son, now Lord Ellington and heir to the Eardom of
