Daughter of the Financier Is the Marchioness of Dufferin and Ava, and Is a Leader of Exclusive Society. For the fifth time in his busy and yet romantio life, John H. Davis, the Wall street banker, has taken a wife, and for the third time at least, he has done so without taking his friends into the se- eret until the knot was safely tied. His latest matrimonial plunge has just ‘been made in London, where he married Migs Ada Therese Slevwrigbt, of New Zealand. None of his New York friends knew that he was even engaged, but they are used to his ways in such matters now, and they were not surprised. ‘As to who his fifth wife 1s, the cable simply says that she !s the daughter of the Jate Basil Sievwright, of Dunedin, New Zealand. That's as much as s0- clety knew about the fourth Mrs. Davis when the banker married her. New York never knew Mr. Davis’ firat wife. She died before he came to this city from the Northwest. When he did come, about twenty-five years ago, he had with him his second wife, @ Miss Chapman, of Bellevue, O. His Child a Marchioness, She bore him a child, who grew up to be a very beautiful girl and who, several years ago married the present Marquis of Dufferin and Ava, when hls father, the old Mamuis, was stil the British Ambassador to France. This Mrs. Davis died about sixteen ago. Her husband brought thelr child back to New York and bought a home at No. 4 Washington square. For eight years he devoted himself to the rearing of his daughter. He travelled with her frequently to Europe, and it was on one of her trips that she met Lord Terence Hlackwcod, the second gon of the Marquis of Dufferin and Ava They became engaged and the wedding day was sct. Meanwhile the old gentleman had not been idle with his own love affairs. He had become acquainted with M! ‘Amelia Whiting, « daughter of the late ‘Augustus Whiting and a sister of the former Mrs. 0.
