COUPLE HARRIED EARLY LAST FALL This I Latest Angle of Simms- Stoddard Romance Chicago, Feb. 19.—/—A new angle to the sudden postponement of the marrlage of Miss Charlotte Simms, Dayton soclety girl, to Ken- yon Anthony Stoddard, set for today, has come to light with the informa- tion that a marriage license was is- sued to the two at Newport, Ky., last October 24. The Herald and Examiner, quoting dispatches from Cincinnati, which is across the river from Newport, sald they were married in the Kentucky town the same day by Magistrate Thomas Hanly. | “This report of a secret marriage is certainly startling,” sald Ferdi- nand W. Peck, Jr., son of the pioneer Chicagoan, and uncle of Miss Stmms. “Knowing Charlotte as I do, it seems incredible to me that she would go through such a ceremony without consulting or gconfiding in her mother."” Miss Simms and her mother are en route to Florida, while Stoddard, who was served earlier in the week with a divorce actlon summons in the presence of his fiancee's father, has departed from Dayton for Phila- delphia with the announced intention of spiking reports of his marriage to another bride there in 1922. Divorce suit was brought by Edith Widding, of Portland, Maine, who according to the service papers stat- ed she married him in April, 1922, when he used the name of Herman Albrecht Yaffee. Dispatches from Portland said no such divorce action was on record there. Mr. Peck said he knew Stoddard had at one time used an assumed name. “He told my niece all about this phase of his career before he pro- posed marriage to her. He also ad- mitted knowing a woman by the name of Widding ten years ago. But he did not say he had married her.” ‘When announcements were print- ed in Chicago newspapers recently of the impending marrage of Stod dard and Miss Simms, Stoddard w described as “the only living son of the Countess Alene Byron Harring- ton and Huntley Stoddard of Lon- don.” The marriage license records at Newport gave Stoddard’s birthplace as Knoxville, Tenn., according to the Saving Money— ||| Some people do it easily; some have to force themselves to do it—others just can't get into the habit—but when all is said and done we all have to put money aside some time or other, or we end up as “charity patients.” A Savings Account here at this Mutual you ngnt.
