DUCHESS LOSES KINSMEN

Two cousins of the Duchess of Gloucester have been widowed by the war. They are the wives of two Irish Guards officers reported killed in action.

Lieutenant-Colonel Walter Douglas Faulkner, aged forty-two, who won the M.C. in France with the Irish Guards in the last war, is one of them. He was appointed to the command of the 1st Bat- talion in 1938. His widow is Patricia, daughter of Lord and Lady Herbert Montagu-Douglas Scott. Lord Herbert is a brother of the late Duke of Buc- cleuch, father of the Duchess.

There are two children, a boy' born in 1932 and a girl born in 1937.

The other officer is Major Tho- mas Archibald Hacket-Pain, who married in 1935 Marjorie Kather- ine, twin daughter of Lord George Montagu-Douglas-Scott, also uncle of the Duchess.
