Sir Francis Hope never had the atone and May Tohe never aaw It. All of which states T. Edgar Wlllson, as aforesaid. Nevertheless snd notwithstanding, the reputation of the Hope diamond la probably blasted for all time. If it hasn't the "evil eye" there are millions of superstitious people who believe It has snd will give credence to everything evil they msy read about It Tbey may, in the course of time, even attribute to Its malign Influence the automobile accident which made Vinson McLesn st his birth the sole heir to the greet Walsh fortune.' In 1903, when automobiles were rare, Vinson Walsh, brother of Mrs. McLean, was killed In a amashup at Newport Mrs. McLean, who waa then Miss Evelyn Walsh, waa alao In the car and received Injuries which made her an Invalid for a year. Two other children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. McLean, both boys, one of whom la four and the other a year old. At the time of the probating of his grandfather Walsh's will It waa found that there war only $0,210,000 to be divided between the two heirs of the Mcl-eaunion, Vinson and Johp R., Jr. Toung McLean was s democratic youth. For several years his boon companion was a small negro boy. His tutors said be was sn exceptionally bright student, and he was popular, with his mates. He waa fond of animals.- - Fifty-si- x Shropshire sheep were sent sll the way from Colorado to Bar Harbor by express for him.

Nobody aeetas to know definitely. But one of the stories about the atone since It haa been in their possession seems to Indicate that Its evil reputation had Its effect npon them. Anyway, as the story goes, there was some hitch about the payment of the purchase price of the stone. It evidently waa not because of lack of money. There waa a law ault. In the course of the controversy stories were printed to show that Mr. .McLean: harbored a feeling of timidity be cause of the evil history attributed to the stone. and that he stipulated that the Jewel should be taken back by the Cartler firm m the event thut any tragedy occurred In the McLean family within Li months, ttnemer mat story is true is not but eventually formal announcement was clear, ' made by attorneys connected with the suit over the' purchase price that' a compromise had been ' effected.
