The London Gossip newspaper printed in a column this morning "reports taken from some American journals" that the Duke of York, second son of King George V, is engaged to Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, youngest daughter of the Earl and Countess of Strathmore.
The New York Times, by special cable," reports that it is that is is stated on authority that the report "is entirely without foundation. Only a month ago, it was reported that Duke of York wished to "enter upon the engagement had brought him into conflict with his father."
At the time, inquiries "failed to obtain any information tending to corroborate" the reports.
Both the Prince of Wales and the Duke of York have been the subjects of reports regarding purported engagements.
