Margaret: TKe
This if the flrrt of a serits of Mar
garet Saville, who has covered the
rojal family for more than 20 years.
She has written 22 books about them
since the reign of George V. She cov
ered the birth of princess Margaret,
tho abdication of Edward VIII, the
wedding of Queen Elizabeth and her
coronation.
By MARGARET SAVILLE
U P Palace Correspondent .
London U.R) There comes
a time tor every girl when she
must grow up, face life as it is.
For Britain's Princess Margaret
it came very suddenly and pain
fully. It came a little more than two
years ago in a railroad car in
the British African ' colony of
Rhodesia. - Margaret and the
Queen Mother Elizabeth had
been on a tour of the colony
when the Princess, hurt and
angry, ran away from the royal
party. Her mother followed her.
Crowds looking through, the
plate glass window of train car
40 in the station at Salisbury
saw their reconciliation and one
brief, heart-tugging burst of
emotion.
The mother opened her arms
to her youngest child and Mar
garet clung to her for a moment.
When the embrace ended, Mar
garet squared her shoulders.
Two Year Wait ,
She had faced up to the fact
that she could not go on with
her behind the scenes romance
with Group Capt. Peter Town
send, the Royal equerry at Buck
ingham Palace. Her only hope
lay in waiting two years until
she came to the age when she
could choose her own man. '
It had been a moment of crisis
for the British royal family.
When she learned that Townsend
had been "exiled" to Brussels as
an air attache, the impetuous
Margaret broke off the Rhodes-
ian tour, flew to Salisbury, leav
ing her mother behind, and put
through an urgent call to Lon
don. -":
Government House quietly an
nounced her royal highness was
"suffering from a heavy cold
which has been coming on for
some days." Certainly her eyes
were red.
But two days later, when the
Queen Mother's train pulled into
Salisbury, that kind and anxious
widow had risen to disembark
when her daughter came back
to her with a rush. The reminder
of royal duty in the mother's em
brace was as old as the British
Empire. Margaret honored it in
full.
But what sensitive woman
caught in the warm misery of
first love can find full comfort

Romance of
in the cold call of duty?
Full Of Fir
Especially Margaret. She is full
of fire. She is a tiny woman,
far prettier than her pictures.
Full-hipped and deep breasted,;
emotional and intelligent, the violet-eyed
girl could have snapped
her fingers years ago and had
almost any man of her choice
except Townsend.
Margaret was used to having
her way. She was the especial
favorite of her father, the late
George VI, who once remarked
that "Margaret Rose could charm
the pearl out of an oyster.' . ,
It was the King, an experi
enced judge of men, who had ap
provingly assigned Townsend, a
hero of the Battle of Britain, to
relieve the bonedom of a young
girl caged by high birth. He as
signed the captain, 16 years older
than Margaret, to accompany the
adolescent girl on walks at Sand
ringham or theater going to Lon
don's West End.
Margaret and Peter first met
when he was 29, she 13. She had
just been dousing herself in Schi
aparelli's "shocking" perfume
and trying on her mother's lip
stick. Townsend Wore Her Colors
Margaret's hero worship for
Townsend was such that she con
ceived a desire to learn to fly.
Townsend agreed to teach her
but the king said no. But Town
send wore Margeret's colors in
air races and at the steeplechase
races.
When the princess was going
out in the evening she would run
to the King's study to display a
new frock. Townsend was often
there. "Do you like it?" the girl
would ask, expecting an answer
from Townsend as well as her
father..
It was in those days that the
Artists' Association of America
decided that Margaret had "the
world's most beautiful eyes."
The spirited princess carried the
clipping around, took it to Town-
send and asked mischievously:
"Would you like to look into the
world's most beautiful eyes?"
Margaret had adored her fath
er. On a February night in 1952,
while her sister Princess Eliz
abeth was in Africa with the
Duke of Edinburgh, Margaret
played the piano and softly sang
for her father as she often did.
He . tinkered with a crossword
puzzle and retired early. He died
before dawn.
Shock Struck Margaret
The shock of less struck Mar
garet cruelly. Numbed by grief,
she turned to the comfort of

a Princess
Townsend her father's friend
and hers. Queen Mother Eliza
beth, eoncerned about the daugh
ter's sadness, told Townsend at
one. time, "Take her out and
cheer her up."
It was that same year that
Townsend won a divorce from
his wife, Rosemary, charging her
wuth adultery. He was given
custody of their two children.
In his own emotional turmoiL
he drew close to the girl he had
come to know so well. They
went everywhere toeether. He
accompanied her to the royal
residence of Balmoral in Scot
land and they built together a
three-foot rough stone cairn on
a Scottish hilltop. Each time they
roae to tne summit, they put an
other stone on the cairn.
There is little question that it
was then they truly fell in love.
But Townsend was a divorced
man. And the Anglican Church,
of which Elizabeth II is head,
forbids marriage to a divorcee,
no matter who is the innocent
party. Yet Margaret and Town
send went blindly ahead, with
their romance.
Left On Tour : .
The world first learned of
their love affair a few days after
Elizabeth s coronation in June,
1953. Just as- had the news of
the romance of Edward VHI and
Wallis Warfield Simpson broken
in the American press, so did
that of Margaret and Townsend
The New York Daily News
printed the first story and then
the storm broke in Britain. But
the palace maintained an icy
silence.
A few weeks later Margaret
left with her mother on the Afri
can tour. And it was then that
the handsome - Townsend was
summarily ' informed that his
services were no longer required
at Buckingham Palace and that
he had been given the post of air
attache in Brussels.
The plan was' obvious: To sep
arate the young lovers and let
their passion cool slowly. Town-
send made no protest. He took
it like the man he is.
But the tiny Margaret was not
to be denied the only man she
had ever wanted.. She squared
her shoulders that day in Rho
desia and began her ordeal of
waiting. She went to the theater,
the night clubs and the races
with dukes and earls, wealthy
young commoners and childhood
friends.
Last August 21 she reached
the age of 25. She no longer
needed the consent of her sister
to marry. For Elizabeth, although
