23 SUNDAY NEWS, JULY 4, 1937 Mm vote had gone fco a Jess of the elder sisters he pre- erred. Friends of the family were pretty sure it was Elizabeth. Perhaps Elizabeth thought so, too. For when -she was questioned by reporters in New York, in 1929, upon her return from a Europe vacation, she blushed and refused to affirm or deny the report. A short time later the engagement of Lindbergh and Anne was announced, i There was no hint of Elizabeth's reaction to the announcement.

If she did fall in love with the lone eagle of the Atlantic she never exhibited the slightest sign of it after her sister's engagement was announced unless one looked for hidden meanings in her girlish statement that she "would never marry." The entire family grew fond of "Augustus'' as Anne called her husband-to-be, and he proved to be an asset to Dwight Morrow when that politically ambitious father gave up his ambassadorship to seek a senatorship which seemed- but a stepping stone to the Presidency. Lindbergh and his wife, married in June, 1929, were feathering their own nest and were happy in the birth of their first son, Charles Jr. Elizabeth, after teaching voluntarily and without salary in the Mexican schools for a few months after Anne's engagement, had undertaken a little school of her own for pre-school age children in Englewood. Connie and Dwight were in school. Mrs.

Morrow threw herself, heart and soul, into her husband's campaign in the Spring of 1930. He won. There is little doubt that he Platform Lone be for the late Dwight Morrow Sr. became prominent ia political and financial world, hi wife bad mad a plac for herself a a pablic speaker.

i vi, twT classman Calvin Coolidge. Like his father, Dwight, quiet and unassuming', demonstrated a remarkable ability for meeting and organizing men. Like kis jnother, he had a flair for public speaking. MRS. MORROW was known as one of the platform stars among Englewood's civic betterment workers long before the late Senator and Ambassador to Mexico became a figure in world affairs.

Elizabeth Reeves Cutter had been graduated from Smith and was teaching English, French and history in private schools in Cleveland, in 1903, just prior to her marriage to Morrow. Soon after the marriage they moved to Englewood. For many years, "Betty" Morrow was much better known in Englewood than her young husband, who was ever busy with his law practice, banking business, and interest in the J. P. Morgan firm in New York City.

When the first daughter arrived a year after the Morrow-Cutter marriage, it was natural that she should be named Elizabeth. But Elizabeth Reeve Morrow was never to be called "Betty." She was tall, slender and dignified. Anne, born the year after Elizabeth, proved to be more like her mother. Although her -mother is now white-haired, Anne resembles her strikingly in features and personality. Both are small, quiet, and kindly.

'Anne Tries Hand At Prose and Poetry. Like her mother, Anne took to writing both poetry and prose while at Smith. That was during the years Elizabeth was studying at the Sorbonne in Paris and at the University of Grenoble. Elizabeth returned to teach at the Dwight school in Englewood until her father, ever marching forward in the world of affairs, in 1927 was appointed Ambassador to Mexico. Mrs.

Morrow and the girls wept when they learned that their fcoma was to be in Mexico City for a few years. Like other Americans who knew little or nothing of Mexicj they feared that the Federal District was an area of dirty, ramshackle huts, peopled by swarthy, murder-loving bandits. Perhaps those tear" mark the first of the long series of heartbreaks expeiienc-id by Mrs. Morrow. HER fear of Mexico vanished and gradually a genuine love her temporarily adopted land blossomed where apprehension had grown before.

Then her interest was demanded by the romance of her daughters with the newly-famous world hero end flier of the Atlantic, Charles 'Augustus Lindbergh. For a while, the long, gangling aviator seemed not to know which kX iiiinifjfci jE' Newy-Weds Margot Loines became the wife of the late Dwight Morrow's only son and namesake at a very quiet wedding last week. with a 32-year-old widower, the Rev. Clyde H. Roddy, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church at North Arlington, N.

ten miles from her home. The news of their engagement slipped out. However, the Morrows looked with disfavor on the match. Unlike the Franklin Delano Roosevelts, who have consistently held to a policy of letting their children set their own courses in life, whether the courses be right or wrong, the Morrows had trained their children to submit to parental dictation. Elizabeth submitted.

Dr. Roddy went Europe. So did Elizabeth in July, 1931. Their paths did not cross. On the romantic rebound, Elizabeth met young Morgan again.

(Like Connie, she had first met him in London 1930.) He was about her own age, the second son of David Morgan, owner of a large department store in Cardiff, Wales. The Morrows could find no fault with his lineage or education. This Talker time Elizabeth's romance was encouraged. As if the sorrow they knew in their father's death were not trial enough, a new tragedy fell upon the Morrows in March, 1932. No need to retell the horror of that night when the family learned that Charles Lindbergh Jr.

had been kidnaped. Mrs. Morrow rushed to Anne's side. She managed the household on Sourland Mountain a household filled with strangers until the baby's body was di.ov-ered near Hopewell, N. two months later.

During this time Elizabeth, exhibiting the calm and poise so necessary in those harried days; took charge of her mother's home at Englewood. In August, 19SS, Mrs. Lindbergh's second ton, Jon, was born. And in December of that year, en a gray and forbidding day, Elizabeth married Aubrey Morgan. Connie was her only attendant.

Elizabeth and her new husband sailed to make their home in Wales. nURING the year 1933, Mrs. Morrow had time to rest a bit and look, about. Dwight, graduating from Amherst, was, like his father, voted "most likely to succeed." For the first year after his graduation he served as graduate instructor and assistant to President Stanley King. He gave this up for a graduate course in history at Harvard, and finally wound up in Yale Law School, where he ia now studying.

Constance, grown to be a slight, blonde young lady, might have been her mother's greatest pleasure during those '33 days had she not been tormented with a series of kidnap threats. As far back as May, 19SS, when Constance was a schoolgirl at Milton, she got a letter demanding 1 50,000, or else Connie, the individualist, hadn't wanted to go to Smith. She had known about Smith since she was 3 and she wanted to do something different. But like her sisters, she capitulated to family wishes. And, as Mrs.

Morrow changed her mind about Mexico, Connie changed her mind about Smith. She proved far more popular there than had either of her sisters. Just about the time the clouds began to clear from the Morrow sky, new tragedy loomed on their horizon, Elizabeth, ill, was brought home from Wales in a wheel-chair, suffering from a heart ailment. Her anxious young husband took her to Pasadena, Coin for the sun. She seemed to improve in health.

Labs in 1934, it was decided that a boat trip to Mexico might do her some good. The lay she boarded the boat she was stricken with appendicitis. She had scarcely recovered from the first effects of the operation when pneumonia set in. Then her weak heart took a turn for the worse. would have been a candidate for the Republican nomination for President in place of Herbert Hoover had he not suffered a stroke during the night of Oct.

Broken-hearted Aubrey remainrd with the Morrows through the long, hard months of 1935, during which Bruno Richard Hauptmann went on trial for the kidnaping and murder of the Lindbergh baly. Although the public was scarcely aware of him all those months, Morgan was ever present to comfort members of the family wha had to undergo the ordeal of testimony at the Flemington trial.

When the Lindberghs, late ta 1935, decided to go into voluntary exile from their homeland for "tha safety of their living son and other children they might have, it waa Aubrey who suggested that they go to his father's home at Llandaff, close to Cardiff.
