GREAT SINGER’S WIDOW
MRS. CARUSO RE-MARRIED. PARIS REGISTRY CEREMONY. Mrs. Dorothy Caruso, widow of the great tenor, was married in,Paris last month to Mr. C. A. Holder, the well- . known 'banker and retired American diplomat. Mr. Holder was vice-consul in -London at the outbreak of the Great War in 1914. After the ceremony the couple left by car for the bridegroom’s fine old Chateau d’Ury, in the Seine-and-Mame country, for the honeymoon.. The wedding took place quietly in the registry office in which Miss Barbara Hutton, heiress to the Woolworth fortune, was recently married to Prince Alexis Mdivani. It was entirely a family affair. Mrs. Caruso was accompanied by Mrs. George Howland and Mr. Holder by his lawyer. They were followed by Miss Peggy Holder and Miss Gloria Caruso, who is 13 years of age. As Mrs. Caruso does not speak French an official carefully explained to her the eight documents which had to be signed. When she had attached her signature she turned to her daughter and said: “Isn’t this exciting?” There was no religious ceremony. Caruso died in 1921. His widow, who was the daughter of a wealthy New York lawyer, married in 1923 Captain E. E. Ingram, but two years later the marriage was dissolved.
