EARL AND GIRL
RELATIVES OPPOSE WILL
(Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.)
LONDON, June 24.
The love affair of the late Earl of Shrewsbury and Airs Brownlee has been revealed in the Probate Court. The Earl was separated from his wife in 1906. He made tho acquaintance of Airs Brownlee, then a girl of 20, in 1908. They were attracted to each other through a mutual fondness for sport, and animals, and racing. They afterwards were living together.
The Earl in September last revoked a disposition amounting, to £250,000, in favour of the present Earl, and other members of his family, practically leaving the whole estate to Airs Brownlee. The present Earl, through his guardian, the Alarquis of Anglesey, is opposing probate. He alleges that the late Earl was of unsound mind and executed his will under the influence of Airs Brownlee. The charge is denied.
