Colonel Who Married His
Nurse Dies
in Paris
CHINESE CALLED HIM "WHITE DEVIL WITH GOOD HEART
BUT BAD TEMPER"
COLONEL EDWARD, BRYCE, winner of the D.S.O. and two bars for gallantry during the war, a famous tank battalion commander, has died in Paris at the age of 56.
Two years ago the colonel, a powerfully built man, was stricken with paralysis. For a year he lay gravely ill. He was nursed back to health by Miss Erica Fromen, an Australian nurse, whom he married in February this year.
Before the marriage there was ease in the Paris courts, in which the Colonel's sister, Mrs. Phillips, of Whitchurch, Hants, lodged a protest against the proposed mar rlage on the ground that her brother was paralysed and unfit to make auch n decislun.
Colonel Bryce was represented in court by Mile. Yvonne Netter, a leading woman' barrister. Mrs.
Phillips's protest was rejected.
