DESERT LOVE OF A BARONET.
LADY CHARLES ROSS GRANTED DECREE.
Lady (Patricia) Ross was recent- ly granted a divorce from her hus band, Sir Charles Rosa, Bart.. by the Scottish Court of Session, to which she appealed from the Court below which had refused a decree. The co-defender, Mrs. Emily Dalziel, of New York, has died since the case began.
The Lord President, in his judge ment, said that Sir Charles met Mrs. Dalziel in New York in 1890, when he first went to America, She was then unmarried,
There was no trace of any com- munication between them until they met again at a party in New York in 1919.
So rapidly did the intimacy be tween them grow, that carly in 1920 they were projecting expeditions together to Labrador for fishing, and to Africa for llon and elephant shooting.
In the Red Sea.
In 1920, accompanied by a major and his family, Sir Charles and Mrs. Dalziel embarked at Marseliles for Africa.
In the Red Sea passengers were | permitted to sleep on the boat deck, and Sir Charles provided air-beds for himself and Mrs. Dalziel.
The men slept on one side and: the women on the other, but the stewards noticed in the morninga the two airbeds were repeatedly found side by side. Sir Charles and Mrs. Dalziel were the only two passengers who had airbeds.
There was also evidence that Mrs. Dalziel was also in the habit of visiting Sir Chorics in his cabin.

PRINCESS WED BEHIND CLOSED DOORS.
DESCENDANT OF THE KINGS OF FRANCE.
Behind the closed doors of St. Richard's Catholle Church, Chi- chester, a princess, descended from the kings of France, was married last month to a wealthy American.
There was none of the pageantry that customarily accompanies a princess's wedding.
A silver and gold ring, which has been passed down through the Royal Familles of France, was the only link with the old-time glories of the House of Orleans,
The bride was Prinocas Maric i Louise of Orleans, daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Vendome, and the bridegroom was Mr. W. F. Kingsland.
In the Westhampoott register the couple were described as;-
William Frederick Kingsland, bachelor, of independent means, age 40.
Marle Louisa Fernand Charlotte Henrietta d'Orleans, formerly 'the' wife of Philip, Prince of Bourbon, from whom she obtained a divorce, Princess; domielle, Russell Cottage; age 81.
Father Measures performed the ceremony, assisted by Father Cornelius O'brien.
