MICK COLLINS’ FIANCEE YOUNG, FAIR, STATELY Girl Irish Leader to Wed Described by Cousin Now in U. S. TALKS ABOUT ROMANCE NEW YORK, March 81.—“I knew her when" How often we hear people say this proudly of someone who Is a well-known figure of the day! We har' really found someone who knows a great deal about the young woman who la engaged to marry one of the great political personages of the hour, Michael Collins, head of the provisional government of Ireland. Recently the engagement was announced of the popular Irish leader and Miss Kitty Klernan of Granard, County Longford. Our “find" is Miss Kathleen de Rohan, cousin of Miss Klernan and a resident of New York City for the present, while she pursues her studies in dress design. Mias De Rohan, an attractive, fairhatred young woman, discussed her cousin's romance, that has blossomed through the turbulent winds that have blown over Ireland during the last few years. TKETTIER THAN PICTURES. "What is she like?” Miss Pe Rohan repeated after us. “Well, not very much like the photographs of her you’ve probably seen. Tall, stately, with wonderful blonde hair and blue eyes. She's young and lovely, but the pictures make her appear so much older and so mature looking. “Collins met her first in 1919, although their families had been acquainted for a long time. He's the likable, brilliant type the Irish caU 'a broth of a boy.’ Only 26 or £7, he has fcught every bit of his way ahead in life and conquered oppression. “They have been engaged almost a year, and it was to Kitty that Collins referred as ‘the woman he loved' when he answered the sarcastic taunt of the Countess Markiewiez that ‘Michael Collins will probably expect to marry Princess Mary now.’ “Her parents died when Kitty was about thirteen. Later one of her sister* died in Switzerland. Her people owned the Greviile Arms Hotel, in Granard, and controlled a good portion of the business in the town, including a prosperous grocery and provision store. FAMILY PROPERTY DESTROYED. “In 1920 a district Inspector of the Royal Irish Constabulary was shot In the hotel. The Sinn Feiners ' were suspected, and the Inn was burned to the ground, at well as nearly everything else the Kiernans owned. Still Kitty has some money of her own and is, I believe, well-to-do. “I remember our happy days together when we went to the convent in Granard. We both studied Gaelic and were wrapped up in loTe of country, Just as we have been during the past few years to an even greater degree. Kitty worked in the Irish White Cross, the nurses’ branch of Sinn Fein. “Our first cousin, Paul Cusack, a rebel and, hunger-striker, was released from Prisen In 1919. We used to laugh a lot about the way boys and girls were distributed in our families. Mrs. Klernan

Kitty’s mother, had six girls and one boy, and her sister, Mrs. Cusack, bad six boys and one girl. Discussing fashions for Irish women. Miss De Rohan said: “Some of our towns are so remote that women don't get the chance to buy themselves the kind of clothes they would like.
