Caused Miss Hoyt
*
to Jilt Britisher
Memories of Marital Tangle of i
Sister Said to Have Add
cd to Fright of Wash
ington Girl.
By fnlveranl Service.
Washington, May IS. — An over
powering, physical fear of marriage
snd its responsibilities was the solo
cause of the refusal of Miss Nancy
Hoyt, daughter ctf Mr. and Mrs. Henry
M. Hoyt, to marry T.ieut. Wiseman
Clarke of the British Royal navy,
here on Wednesday.
Tills explanation was made today by ',
members of the Hoyt family to their i
intimate friends. The family phy-1
solan Is said to have advised Mrs.
Hoyt that the marriage could not iw
celebrated withoht danger of a com
plete nervous breakdown of the bride
on thp very night before tho cere ,
tnony was scheduled to take lilac*-.
For weeks Miss Hoyt is said to'
have been battling with herself to;
overcome tills f<-s.r.- This case is said
to have been aggravated into what
th» psychologists call a “complex" by
tlie memories of what dark ways mat-,
riage had led iter older sister, Mrs
Elinor Eiehborn Wylie.
Ashed lo Re Released.
Two weeks ago it Is said that Nancy |
Hoyt explained the situation lo Cieu
tenant Clarke and her family and
asked that she he released from her
promise. Startled and astonished by
such a request, which the young man
termed simply a "flimsy excuse,” he
refused to accede to her wishes and
insisted that the pluns for the wpd

Day Before Wedding

ding continue. But tho feeling of
fear grew stronger, it appears^ as
the day of the wedding came nearer.
Meantime the preparations were go
ing steadily forward for the ceremony,
no one of either family dreaming that
Nancy might actually refuse to be
married.
Miss Iftiyt Collapses.
The Hoyt family, it is said, did
not realize the seriousness of the
situation until Tuesday when Miss
Hoyt collapsed during a rehearsal of
tho marriage service*. Consultations
followed with physicians and the
bridegroom-elect and his family.
Lieutenant Clarke pleaded that the
plans be carried out and it is said
even promised that it should be a
marriage in name only until such
time as her nerves would permit the
beginning of the honeymoon.
Rut Miss Hoyt's condition was now
such that she could not go through
with the ceremony, and even while
the guests were arriving and her
circle of friends were en fete for the
prospective “happy” wedding, the de
cision was made and the marriage was
halted.
