Tut-Tut
Britons who dearly love a Lord tut-tutted in dismay last week.
Tut was for the 27-year-old 21st Earl of Enroll, last of a line of Hereditary Lord High Constables of Scotland dating from 1315. He was roundly called a "blackguard" in London, last week, by Judge Sir Maurice Hill who assessed $15,000 damages against him as the corespondent in a successful divorce suit brought by Major Cyril S. R. Hill. "Mrs. Hill," said Judge Hill (no relation), "is a woman of the lowest character and a liar, perhaps due to the influence of the corespondent."
Tut was for Mrs. Kate Evelyn Merrick, "The Queen of London Nightclub Keepers," who was sentenced to six months in jail for selling liquor after hours. Vexed were her sons-in-law, Baron de Clifford and the 13th Earl of Kinnoull.
