PEGGY JOYCE’S
‘ 4TH MARRIAGE
N E A R S F. N D

Count Morner F i l e d
Annulment Suit and
Actress Sues to Re-
cover $10,000

NEW' YORK. July SCI—The. only
romance i‘cggy Hopkins Joyce ever
attempted was broken on the rocks
of reality yesterday. A summons
was served on the former "\‘ani-
tics" star in the afternoon in a suit
for the annulment of her marriage
to Count Gosta Morner. in which
the count was the plaintiff.

Last night it was reported that
the blonde beauty had countered
with an action against the count

for separation and to recover $10.-
000, which. she charges. she had
spent on behalf of her new husband
since she was married to him June
second.

Count Gosta, in his apartment at
the Yale club. where he now is stop-
ping. said early today that he had
not. been served with any papers in
any action by his wife. and he had
no knowledge of her suit for separ-
ation. His lawyer. S. 'D. Kohler,
said that the complaint in the
count's suit had not yet been
served; but that they were being
drafted and probably
served on the countess today.

Certain She Didn‘t. Love Him

The count said that. he had con-
templated bringing the annulment
suit for some tune. because he had
became convinced his wife did not
love him and she had not married
him for love. but that his hand was
forced when he learned the countess
would cause: to be published state-
ments that he had struck her and
that he had not supported her. and
that she had paid his bills. These
statements. the count said. are false.

"I have never struck any woman."
he said. "and I have never said a.
vulgar word to a woman. I am a
gentlcnian and I have always tried
to act like a gentleman."

Count Gosta said he knew Peggy
Joyce had been married three times
when he met her. but he loved her
and thought she loved him. The
wedding took place after he had
met her only four or rim times. he
said. and he soon came to know
there. was no love for him in her
heart. He was asked if he knew
the reason she married him and he
replied:

“I will not say. but you can guess
once."

“The title '.'" was suggested.

Gave Her Stage Prestige

“I will not say anything about
that," said the count. “but I will
say that several theatrical produc—
ers have come to me and told me
that they would have to pay Miss
Joyce as the Countess Morncr more
money than they would have had to
pay her if she had not married me.

“I trusted and believed in my
wife. and I thought she deserved the
trust. I told her before we were
married what my income was, and
sh: know perfectly well that while
I cculd keep her in comfort. I could
not keep up expensive motor cars. a
chauffeur and an apartment such
as she wanted. I could not give her
the luxuries she demanded and she
knew it.

“I also made it plain to her that
my business interests were in Chi-
cago. and it was there I must make
my way in the world. If she had
lm-cd me as she told me she did
she would have been willing to go to
Chicago with me. There we could
