Editor Tidings: An English lord
(Lord Northampton) has by mutual
consent agreed to pay a quarter of a
million dollars to an acress Miss
Daisy Markham as compensation
for "wounding her heart and lacer
ating her feelings" by neglecting to
marry her according to promise. The
case was brought into a London di
vorce court in which Sir Edward
Carson was for the plaintiff and
King's Counsel Sir Walter Duke ap
peared in the interest of the English
lord. Caste in the social makeup of
English life is a very real thing in
deed and the objection to the match
by Lord Northampton's father was
based entirely upon placing this pros
pective bride in a position where she
would be subjected to the "rebuffs
and contemptuous treatment" of the
grandees of society. There was no
question whatever about the promise
of marriage and Lord Northampton,
through his counsel, offered in open
court to repair the injury done, by
the payment of a round quarter of a
million. The offer was accepted by
the counsel of the young lady and
she is now at perfect liberty to make
whatever further conquests "come
her way."
The judge remarked in court that
there was no doubt of the "mar
quess' warm, deep and sincere af
fection for the plaintiff" and that
the decision arrived at had "his full
est approval."
The young men and maiden's of
Ashland and the Rogue River Valley
will read with interest the following
letter from the pen of an English
lord:
"Castle Ashby, Northampton.
"Dearest Daisy: I must just write
you a line as I am so wretchedly
miserable. I want to assure you that
1 1 am trying to do the right thing,
and though you will perhaps find it
difficult now, I am going to ask you
to believe that I always have,-and
do at the present moment, love and
respect you more than any one in
this world, and that you are abso
lutely my ideal of perfect woman
hood. But, Daisy, that ways of the
world are hard, and I want you to
believe that what I am now doing
I am doing from a sense of duty,
genuinely believing it to be the best
for both of, us. Darling,' I have
known it all along. I have tried to
smother my reason, to stifle my
thoughts for your sake. But when
my father talked to me on Friday he
only faced me with the same
thoughts that I told you of when I
first loved you, and which I have
ever since been trying to suppress.
Daisy, you don't know how' these so
called 'ladies' would treat you, and
I really couldn't bear to see you suf
fering it, andwlth your sweet sensi
tive nature it would be torture to
you. Oh! if I could only escape from
my position! Daisy, I want to beg
your forgiveness for the way in which
I have done it. I was bo distracted
between my feelings for you and my
convictions Of what was really best,
that I am afraid I wavered in a way
that was most unfair to you. I must
also apologize for that hurried scrawl
that I(8ent you this morning (it
seems ages ago). I am quite mad,
Daisy. I feel that I have nothing
left to live for. Writing that note
was killing the last hope ot my heart
of conquering my reason. .1 did it
in a hurry for fear of changing myt
mind. And, although I can't re
member what I said, I believed after
sending it that I had said something
of extremely bad taste and brutally
cruel to you. Daisy, I did not mean
it, old girl.
"Well, darling, I really have noth
ing more to say. You will always be
my ideal and you wilt always be my
beautiful dream.
"Darling, write me one line later
on when you feel inclined to tell me
that you 'have some respect for me
