Obituary: Margaret, Duchess of Argyll

Margaret, Duchess of Argyll, died London 26 July, aged 80. A favourite figure of gossip columnists for 40 years, she was divorced in 1963 from the 11th Duke of Argyll in the longest and costliest case of its type in legal history. Cole Porter put her in the original lyrics of his song 'You're The Top'. (An obituary follows.)
