GREAT POSSESSIONS
YOUTHFUL COUNTESS GF KISiKOIiLI THE EARL’S WINDFALL. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, October 7. (Received October 8, at 9 a.m.) The youthful Countess of Kinnoull, who possesses £1,000,000 under her mother’s will, intends to leave England. She said: “I shall live in England as little as possible. I care nothing about my title. 1 would be much happier without it. What a pity it is that those honors cannot go to tho many who esteem them and are anxious to possess them.” It is interesting to note that tho £1,00(1,000 comes to the earl within two months of a bankruptcy order against the carl on a money-lender’s petition. He attributed his failure to living beyond his means. The carl, just previous to his marriage, figured prominently in the_ Press _ owing to Jus mother’s objection to his proposed marriage with a voung widow. Ho was packed off to South Africa, and when ho returned, ho married the present countess. It was a case of love at first sight.
