THE TRAGIC PRINCESS
FRAU ZOUBKOFF'S END —• . \
BESET BY CREDITORS
LONDON. 13th November
I It is learned that the tragic Princess 'Victoria, Frau Zoubkoff, was reduced to dire straits before her death as a. direct outcome of her marriage. A London woman who recently visited the Princess at Bonn states that Victoria up to .the last still loved Zoubkoff, and though she was heavily in. debt she insisted on sending him money to Luxembourg. She held the ex-Kaiser responsible for Zoubkoff V expulsion, from Germany. The woman; adds: "A month or two ago the Princess- was so beset by creditors that she wrote begging me to approach influential people in London on her behalf, and even suggested that I should write-to the Bang and Prince of Wales."
The proceeds from the recent sale of jewels and heirlooms were only sufficient to liquidate half the Princessli debts.
A report from Bonn states that the Princess will be buried, at Cronberg Castle, beside her mother, the eldest daughter of Queen Victoria.
