Miss Kimbrough has been the pet of
society for the past two years, and
while she was never formally present
ed, her beauty and wit made her a fa
vorite with the younger set, and she
was lionized by all who knew her.
Judge Kimbrough, who has been mar
ried twice, has no children of his own,
and it was the general belief his adopt
ed daughter would have been heiress to
the large Kimbrough fortune, estimated
at $2,000,000.
Both Judge and Mrs. Kimbrough are
almost inconsolable over the actions of
the girl, and the judge said before
starting for the orphanage he had lov

own, and deeply regretted that her ac

made it impossible for her to longer
