Elliott Shepard
Elliott Fitch Shepard Jr. (1876 – April 10, 1927) was an American racing driver, who competed in several early motor races. One of his sisters was Alice Vanderbilt Shepard.
==Early life==
Shepard was born in 1876 to Elliott Fitch Shepard, Sr. and Margaret Louisa Vanderbilt Shepard, eldest daughter of William Henry Vanderbilt and Maria Louisa Kissam. Shepard was educated at Yale University and graduated in 1898. He later studied at Harvard University.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.vanderbiltcupraces.com/drivers/bio/shepard )〕
Shepard married Esther Potter, a 25-year-old widow, in a civic marriage in April 1897. A religious ceremony followed at the insistence of Shepard's mother, after which the newlyweds left for Europe. Shepard went into business in Paris, but was unsuccessful. He briefly returned to the USA with his wife, but they separated and in August 1902, she filed for absolute divorce. Shepard again returned to Paris, and made several more attempts as opening businesses, all of which were again unsuccessful.
Shepard knocked down and killed a 12-year-old girl, Madeline Marduel, on April 27, 1905. A trial followed, and on October 26 the judge sentenced Shepard to three months imprisonment, a $120 fine and he was ordered to pay $4,000 in damages to the girl's parents. Shepard appealed the decision, and the case was eventually settled in January 1907, with a reduced sentence of six weeks imprisonment. After nine days in Fresnes prison, Shepard was pardoned after paying a further $2,000.
