LADY SCOTT’S MARRIAGE.

OF INTEREST TO NEW ZEALAND HER SECOND HUSBAND. The marriage of Lady Scott, widow of the Antarctic explorer, is of interest to New Zealanders, says an exchange. La'dy Scott, it will bo recalled, was given rank a year after her husband’s death, as the widow of a K.C.B. She herself is an accomplished woman and a sculptor, two of whose works have been seen by many New Zealand visitors to the ()•'d Country—the monument to Hon. O. H. Rolls, the aviator whose tragic death at a Bournemouth (lying meeting was one of the big losses aviation sustained in early Hying days. Another is the war memorial set up at Dover overlooking the Straits, and the wonderfully beautiful statue of her husband in Christchurch. Peter, the son of Lady Scott and her late husband, is now 12 years old. He has been the most uncoddled boy in London,, and he has probably had more fresh air than any other hoy living within the radius. The man Lady Scott is to marry— Lieut.-Com. E. Hilton Young, Financial Secretary to the Admiralty—is one of those who distinguished themselves in the Great War. Fie was an officer of the Vindictive at Zeebrugge, and later a member of the British mission to Serbia. He is a D. 5.0., having been awailded this decoration lor his great initiative, gallantry and dash when in command of an armoured train during the operations in Archangel. Commander Young leads now the more peaceful life of a Treasury official at Whitehall, and in spite of hard service and his slightly greyed hair, yet retains a boyish manner.
