In his book "Nemeryâ€"Holdâ€"theâ€"Door", John Buchan tells of his marriage in the following wordsâ€" "in the autumn of 1906, my Lettled years came happily to an end, for I beâ€" came engaged to Susan Grosvenor, and we Were married the following July. I had no longer any craving for a soli- tary life at some extremity of the Empire, for England was once more lor me an enchanted land, and London a magical city. I think that in Spite of my many friends 1nd interâ€" ests, I had been suffering from loneliness, since my family were iour hundred miles away. Now, I acquired a vast new relationshipâ€"â€"Grosvenors, Wellesleys, Stuartâ€" Wcrtleys, Lyttetons, Talbotsâ€"-and above all, I found the perfect comrade. I have been happy in many things, but all my good wortune has been as dust in the balance, compared with the blessing of an incomparable wife". Lord and Lady Tweedsmuir‘s ra ily consisted of three sons and one daughter-â€"Hon. John, Hon. William, Hon. Alastair, and Hon. Mrs. Fairfox, Lucy. Lord Tweedsmuir passed away in l9h0, while still serving as Governor-General of Canada. VoL.l (’35
