The story of a double life led by a man for 30 years without the slightest suspicion of his friends or either of his two families has been revealed by the disappearance from a boat between New York and Boston of Arthur Irwin, manager of a leading baseball team. Irwin had two families, one in New York and the other in Boston. His legal wife is a Boston woman, by whom he had two daughters and a son, ,all now grown up. Iq New York he had a flat where lived the other “wife” aud a son aged 24. The strangest feature of the case is that the two households were entirely unaware of the other’s existence, in spite of Irwin’s prominence in baseball circles and frequent references to himself and the family in the Press.
