Lord Alfred Douglas. Alfred's last acts,
while seriously i'll, was to write
Prime Minister Churchill imploring
him not to become involved in a
betrayal" of Poland.
Lord Alfred Douglas, whose life
was overshadoWed for nearly half
century by notorious allegations
growing out of his friendship with
Oscar Wilde, was himself poet of
consequence and was regarded by
some critics as master of the
English sonnet.
Scion of a Scottish family famous
in British history, Lord Alfred was
younger son of the eighth Marquis
of Queensberry. who originated the
now-famous "Queensberry rules OF
boxing. A large part of his stormy
life was spent in the law courts, first
defending Wilde and later libel
suit against himself.
The latter case grew out Of SLAM
derous stories Lord Alfred spread
about the present British Prime
Minister, Winston Churchill. They
concerned a scheme during World
War days which Lord Alfred alleged
| involved profits of millions OF
pounds. Tried in Old Bailey Court,
Lord Alfred was sentenced to six
months in jail. Later he charged
that he was starved for two
months and never recovered his
health.
Fascinated by Wilde.
While a young and impression
able student at oxford. Lord Alfred
met Oscar Wilde, then at the height
of his literary fame. The young
nobleman was fascinated by the
witty poet playwright and they
formed an intimate friendship
which was strenuously opposed by
the Marquis of Queensberry. Young
Lord Alfred left oxford and his
father cut off his allowance.
| Finally, the marquis left an insult
ing note for Oscar Wilde at his
club Wilde's reply was libel suit
which was tried at Old Bailey. LORD
Alfred testified against his father
in support of his friends character
but the marquis had garnered evil
dence which led to Wilde's latel
arrest and imprisonment.
Although Lord Alfred was accused
by his critics of deserving Wilde ir
the poets destitute days, it is known
that in this period they saw eacn
other frequently in Paris and that
Lord Alfred frequently gave his
friend money. In fact when Wilde
died in France. Lord Alfred paid his
funeral expenses and was chief
mourner at the requiem mass held
at the Church of Saint Germaine
des Pres. --s -.z.
| Joined Catholic Church.
Lord Alfred was received into the
Catholic Church in 1911.
| Lord Alfred was married in 1902
to Olive, daughter of the late Col
IF. j. Custance of Weston Hall. Nor
wich. They had one son. His lit
erary works included five volumes
of poetry, written between 1899 and
| 1928. He also wrote number OF
short stories. a history of Shake
speare's sonnets and book about
his friendship with Wilde, oscar
Wilde and Myself" published in
1914.
