Source: Trenton Evening Times - N. J. Dated: Apr. 6, 1922 Says She Too is Married To Grafton, Making Third Wife NEW YORK, April 6 - A third girl, Polly Lorayne, former actress, today claimed as her husband Joseph Donald Grafton, son of a millionaire Pittsburgh furniture manufacturer, whose alleged bigamy is being investigated by the grand jury. The other two claimants for Grafton's affections are Peggy Davis, 17-year-old "Follies" girl, and Ellen Curley McIntyre of Youngstown, Ohio, who claim he married them last November and December, the ceremony being separated by only a 17 day interval. "Don took me to Pittsburgh where we resided for five months," said Miss Lorayne, who claims she is "wife number one," because he took out a license to marry me in this city February 1, 1921, but told me a ceremonial marriage was not necessary. "He introduced me to his father and brother as his wife. He even introduced me to A. A. Shepherd, who lived with us as a boarder, as Mrs. Grafton. I am surprised to learn that Shepherd was a witness to his marriage to Peggy Davis." Bigamy complaints against Grafton were laid before the grand jury by Miss McIntyre, really wife number two, and by Mrs. Capitola Laird, Grafton is alleged to have married. Tales of whirlwind love making were told here today by all three of the girls. They marvelled how a man who was so tender and loving when associating with them could have been writing endearing notes at the same time to one or two other alleged "wives." During her stay in the sanitarium on account of illness, from which she was just removed yesterday, Peggy Davis was flooded with notes from her "devoted husband" to "my idolized wife."
