Miss Helen Millet Gould and Mr. Shepard will be married in January. The marriage will not lessen the phil anthropic acts of Miss Gould, her friends stated today, and she will keep up her connection with the various In terests to which she has given so much of her time and money. The couple will take a honeymoon trip to southern Europe and upon their return will take up their residence in the mansion owned by Miss Gould at 579 Fifth avenue.

THE ATT.-ANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. MONDAY, DECEMBER 16. 1912. s Helen Miller Gould never would marry. She is now 44 and her fiance a year older. Mr. Shepard, who Is now assistant to T. L. Brush, president of the Missouri Pacific, Iron Mountain and Denver and Rio Grande railroads, is expected to become ultimately a dominant power in the Gould lines. Upon the death of her father. Jay Gould, in 1592, Helen Gould, then 24 years old, inherited a fortune of about $10,000,000. It has been estimated that by investment she has trebled this for tune, and at the same time devoted fully half of her time to benefactions which brought her into world promi nence. Mr Shepard met Miss Gould so>n after entering the operating department of the Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain lines in June, 1911. He accompanied Miss Gould and her party last March over the Denver and Rio Grande lines when she made a tour of inspection of the railroad Y. M. C. A. buildings. A close friendship sprang up from the trip. Mr. Shepard first saw the heiress when she was in St. Louis last spring. “Up to that time,” he said, “I had no more Idea than you have what she looked like. I hope you, too, have had the pleasure of meeting such a grand and good character. Previously I had admired her in an impersonal way for her wonderful humatjjty and the beauty of her nature. Then I was charmed by her remarkable personality. Her ac ceptance of me has flattered me highly and made me happy. I am thoroughly delighted now that our engagement has been announced.” FRANK C.
