WILL HE MARRY HER?
ENGLISHMEN BETTING ON LORD HARTINGTON’S ACTION. The great question which is agitating London club-land and society is, Will Hartington marry the Duchess of Manchester ? Among the upper ten thousand, who pretend to know the facts in the case, there has been a large amount of wagering, men freely laying two to one against his marrying, while the ladies hold exactly the opposite view. The event cannot be decided for two months at least, but already it shares the honours with the Derby in the betting line. The Duchess, by the Duke’s will, comes in for £4,000 a year and a fine city house. The Kembolton estate has been in the hands of the present Duke’s creditors since his accession. Mandeville is behaving himself, and is reported to have cut loose his affiliations with concert hall singers and the tough sporting set. It is expected that this Beason he will be seen a good deal in public with his American Duchess. The widowed Duchess is living with her daughter, Lady Gosford.
