NAVAL SURGEON
A woman who "Baid that her name was "Lady Stuart Campbell" -was sentenced to three months” imprisonment at Marlborough Street recently,
On the charge sheet she was described as Wynne-Maiette: Stu- art Campbell, 42-a secretary, of Clanricarde-Gardens. W. She was charged with posing as a surgeon commander in the Royal Navy.
Giving evidence,' she said that she had been called a surgeon commander and "The admiral,” but as a joke. She said that she was first married to a lieutenant who was killed in 1918, and after- wards to Sir John Campbell." She had a child, of which he was the father. She could not explain why there was no registration of either marriage or the birth.
The magistrate, Mr. J. B. Sand- bach, said she had been falsely pretending to have a lot of in fluence in high quarters. "I think," too." he said, "you have been as- suming another rank to which you are not entitled. You are. not happy unless you are in the limelight. It is probably megalo- mania."
