The bride was Lady Sarah Cadogan, daughter ofMarlborough's favourite general.'Their union was a bargain to cancel a gambling debt between theparents, and the young Lord March was brought from college, thelady from the nursery, for the ceremony. The bride was amazedand silent, but the bridegroom exclaimedù"Surely you are notgoing to marry me to that dowdy?" Married he was, however, andhis tutor instantly carried him off to the Continent ... Threeyears afterwards, Lord March returned from his travels anaccomplished gentleman, but having such a disagreeablere-collection of his wife that he avoided home, and repaired onthe first night of his arrival to the theatre. There he saw alady of so fine an appearance that he asked who she was. "Thereigning toast, the beautiful Lady March." He hastened to claimher, and they lived together so affectionately, that, one yearafter his decease in 1750, she died of grief.'
