EARL RUSSELL,

AT 63. MARRIES HIS SECRETARY

EARL RUSSELL, sixty-three-year-old philoso-

pher, was married in London this month to Miss Patricia Helen Spence, his twenty-five year-old red-haired secretary.

This is the third marriage of the peer, who prefers to be known as "Mr. Bertrand Russell." Miss Spence is an accountant's daughter.

Their wedding took place at Midhurst (Sussex) Register Office. Both gave their address na Telegraph House, Harting, Peterfield. Mr. G. R. Blanco White, the Sociallat barrister, was a witness.

Notice was given in the "London Gazette" that Miss Spence had changed her name to "Patricia Helen" from that of "Marjorie," Her friends know her as "Foter."

Earl Russell, who succeeded his brother the Socialist peer, in 1981, was married first, in 1894, to Miss. Alys Pearsall Smith, of Philadelphia. She divorced him in 1921.

His second wife was Miss Dors Black, the feminist leader, among whose books is one entitled "The Right to be Happy." For some time they ran together a "do as you please" school at Telegraph House, where boys and girls between four and eleven years old.

SALESMAN SAM.

Capetown, Feb. 20,

A call for help by wireless- telephone was sent out by a young woman who found herself the only white inhabitant of a whaling station at Saldanha Bay, her father having been shot dead.

The girl, Ell, lived with her father, Captain Hans Jorgen Jor- genson, 60-year-old 'master mari- ner, at the whaling, station at Donkergat, on the west coast of Saldanha Bay. Across the narrow bay Langebaan, nearest town; which, however, is 14 miles away from the station by the rond.

Captain Jorgensen was in charge of the station, closed for some years now, but the home of a number of laid-up trawlers and much valuable machinery. A radiophone set was installed for communicating with the whalers at sea.

Although never used by Captain Jorgensen, it was kept in working order.

"Going Away"

On the night of his death, it' appears, the old captain handed his daughter his keys and said, "Look after things. I am going

away."

She did not understand what he

meant.

"

Then, as she stood puzzling over his words, she was startled by the sound of a shot.

Sho dashed into her father's bedroom. He lay dead, with a wound in his head. By his side was a revolver.,

Ell Jorgensen then remembered the radio-telephone.

She started up the oil engine which generates power for the set and soon she was calling out her £0.9. across the world.
