T only reason I can see for my being {held is that I am divorced.” The countess, wealthy widow of an English army officer, was married to Lord Catheart in 1920 when he was about 60 and a confirmed bachelor, and she 22. Lord Cathcart brought suit for divorce a year later, naming the Eaél of Craven as co-respondent. Elopes With Ea British society got another jolt when the countess. eloped with the earl and spent a year on his estate near Capetown, South Africa, return- ing to London 1923. In an open letter to a newspaper, she defended her act. She expressed admiration for those who took marriage vows seriously and governed themselves accordingly, but rofessed contempt for those who esort to every kind of subterfuge for the purpose of successfully con- cealing their illicit relationship from the eyes of the world.” She main- tained it was more commendable for em to live openly together. Admits Her Engagement The countess admitted her engage- ment to a young English dramatist, Ralph Neal. “We seeert to be mar- ried some time in March,” she said. “He's fearfully*good looking.’ After several uncomplimentary re- marks about the appropriateness of the statue of liberty in New York harbor, the countess asked: “Why do they pick me out for this sort of reception? There are 25,000, di vorced women in the United States. I have. wanted to come here for 26 \years and here I am treated like a jcriminal when I arrive. The countess has appealed to the British consulate and hopes to be ad- mitted for a five weeks’ visit on his intercession.
