The late Marie Corelli, on being asked why she never married, said: “There is no need, for I have three pets at home which answer the same purpose as a husband—a dog which growls every morning, a parrot which swears all the afternoon, and a cat which comes home late at night.
From the front page of the Smithfield Herald, Wednesday morning, April 1, 1925. Marie Corelli, also called Minnie Mackey and known by her pseudonym Marie Corelli was a popular English novelist, who had died April 21, 1924.
