Her Life Wrecked

Some years before his death.
Jay, following in his fathers
footsteps, had taken unto him
self a mistress his wife's heart
was broken and she was bitter
over the wreck of her marital
life.
After her husbands death
Mrs. Jay Gould was faced with
the problem of keeping up APP
pearances. Jay having squan-
dered practically all OF his share
of the Gould millions in riotous
living.
Eventually the time arrived
when Mrs. Gus" Wogoman's
mother decided life wasn't worth
the effort. and she ended il all
by turning on the gas of her
kitchen range and inhaling the
fumes.
Today, New York society sees
little of, and hears less about

ter.

Dream Fulfilled

A Gould marrying a Drexel--
that was the type of thing Mrs.
Gould dreamed about.
Yet today, Marjorie Gould
Drexel is an unknown quantity
in society, reporters don't know
her by sight, and her health
has recently caused her friends
much concern.
Due 10 his fathers extrava-
gances and the fact that Dandy
Tony" had another woman" in
his life, there were few Drexel
dollars left for Marjorie's hus-
band TO inherit when Dandy
Tony" died a few years back.
Result: Tony and Marjorie
Gould Drexel no longer are
financially equipped to play the
social game in the grand manner.
Edith Kingdom Gould was
spared knowing the union of a
Gould and a Drexel hasn't pro-
vided social fireworks. Her death
10 years ago also saved her from
knowing that neither Jay Gould
nor Marjorie Gould Drexel full
filled the vaulting social ambi-
tions she had for them.

Perhaps It's just as well Edith
Kingdom Gould dropped dead
10 years ago. She was spared
much sorrow, worry and dis
grace. She never knew her hus-

now an English viscountess, and
gave his children by her, born
out of wedlock. the Gould name.
Then again she never knew her

are probably happier than any
other Goulds.
They lead a conservative ex-
istence and are as far removed
from Anne Gould and her cow
boy alliances as Newport is from
Coney Island.
i, Jay Gould, second son of Edith
Kingdom Gould, was hailed as the
social star of the family. Early in
life he learned to play polo and
squash racquets-and became a
national star in the latter game.
Jay made a fashionable mar
riage which had his mothers
enthusiastic approval, and for
number of years the Jay Goulds

Alas. soon after his mothers
death Jay began to stray from
the family fireside. and if Anne
Gould Meador Elsbury Wogoman

alistic"-'tis because she is Jay
Gould's daughter!
The thrice married before
thirty" Anne'S mother in whose
veins flowed the blood of the

mild-mannered, conservative and
definitely opposed to sensation

Yet she ended her earthly
existence in melodramatic

of her fashionable Park avenue
apartment.
Few know il was only Jay
Gould's death from a heart al
Fiction that prevented his wife
from divorcing him. She had

been one of the most unpleasant

Why Such a Mess7

In fact. there was much Mrs.

death claimed her.
Why have the Gould children
and grandchildren made such a
mess of their lives
Your guess is as good as mine.
Certainly they had excellent up

and the loving care of Edith
Kingdom Gould.
Perhaps that famous lady was
TOO ambitious for her offspring.
Had she permitted them TO
plot their own lives, instead of
arranging every detail of their
education and existence, the
story might have been different.
Yet, the disintegration of the
Gould children and grandchil-
dren didn't begin until after
