FRANK CRANE inquest of Sylvia Pearfon, aged sixty-two, wife of Edward Pearson, an old-age pensioner living in Mayfair, London, West, the other day, the story came out that Mrs. Pearson had been really a Russian Princess who died under «onditions of appalling squalor. At the » th XKent, the landlady, £ald that the couple had lodged with her for fifteen yearg. The man was cighty-four years of age, Mrs, Pear- son had been very poor but was known as the Pringess Orloff. Mrs. Kent added that when she gave the couple food the woman.would open the door just far enough to take it in. The man had not been out of the house for twelve years. The Princess was found dead in her bed one morning and had not had her clothes off in ten years. A policeman said that he found letters in the room addressed to H. 8. H. Princess Orloff. The coroner said the woman sppeared to have been a Russien aristocrat who had been livipg in circumstances too hor- rible to describe. Such instances as this would not be so striking if jt were not for the fact that the person had been in better elrcumstances. For, “The sorrow’s crown of sorrow is remembering happler days.” In fact all of the misery and tragedy to which the human race Is subjected affects us mostly by contrast, The drunkard in his cups wouid not be so miserable were it not for the fact that he once had an oppor- tunity to live the normal and respectable life among his fellows. Thackeray describes & Frenchman, whom he met in Parls, who had always becn satisied and optimistic until upon one occasion, he strove to acquire & fortune and failed; after that he was always a wretched and disappointed man. Perhaps death s only terrible because of its contrast to life, just as our existing life is only tragic,compared with what it might have been Always hopes have their shadows, and it remains true that “Of all sad words of tongue or pey, the saddest are.these, ‘It might have been'.” #Copyright, 1924, by The McClure's Newspaper Eyndicate.
