Portia Knight in Brush with Duke of Manchester on Oceanic
A cable report from Liverpool dated March 6 states the Duke of Manchester and his bride, passengers aboard the White Star steamer Oceanic from New York, faced a writ for breach of promise at Portia Knight’s instance. Knight, American 23 or 24, formerly with Kendall Weston Stock at the Savoy, confirms the suit and says she sought private proceedings. London notes the writ has been issued and that Knight’s solicitors declined comment. Knight’s early career in Lowell and Savoy, her wealth via guardianship, and her aim to advance in drama are outlined amid related London and American gossip.
