Alla Nazimova Explains That Connecticut Marriage of Her Supposed Husband Was Legal. SHE HAD HUSBAND LIVING IN RUSSIA Stage and Screen Star Represented Herself As Mrs. Charles Bryant For 12 Years. New York, Dec. 4. Alla Nazimova, the Russian actress, disclosed in conversation today that, although Charles Bryant and she lived together as man and wife for fourteen years, they were never married. He spoke the truth, she said, when he made oath at New Muford, Conn., Nov. 16, for a statement that he was a single man, free to marry Miss Marjorie Gilhooly, with whom he had fallen in love after she had succeeded in getting a divorce from the Russian husband she left behind years ago. Her disclosure was made when she was confronted with the information that, in taking out his marriage license in Connecticut preparatory to taking the daughter of the late Judge Patrick II. Gilhooly of Elizabeth, N. J., his bride, he claimed to be unmarried, which conflicted with the announcement that Nazimova and Bryan had allowed to be made in 1912 that they had been married. Couldn't Avoid Publicity. Having decided to be wedded in the pretty little Litchfield County town, Bryant paid no heed to final advice of his friends and Nazimova's friends; advice to be married just as quietly as was possible, and to tell no one. But here, it seems, a young girl's desire for some of the conventional bridal day tinsel interfered, and there was a wedding party and a wedding reception, and there came as a result of all this the revelation that Alia Nazimova during most of the time that she was supposed to be Mrs. Charles Bryant, was really the wife of a man in Russia. Bryant, in applying for his marriage license in the office of Town Clerk John S. Addis of New Milford, in November, said his marriage to Miss Gilhooley would be his first. Later, when it seemed he might face arrest for perjury because it was thought this statement was at variance with his supposed marriage with Alla Nazimova, Bryant, through his counsel, still insisted that this story was correct. Yesterday, Madame Nazimova, in an interview with "The Courant," also admitted that Bryant had told the truth. "What is there to say?" queried the noted stage and cinema actress. "Everything that can be said, has been said. Why should the matter be stirred up further? Mr. Bryant did not perjure himself. He is now happily married. Why bother with the matter? All that has happened since Bryant was married the other day has greatly hurt me. I have been living at the top of a volcano. I'm worried to death. For the last several days I have 'been hunted like an animal in the woods'. It hurts me to talk about this matter. I cannot talk about it. What ...
