Part of Papers of Robert Calverley Trevelyan and Elizabeth Trevelyan

Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Went to Newcastle yesterday and 'took the chair for Mrs [Hilda] Runciman' Miss [Gertrude] Tuckwell 'spoke well' and she thinks 'they were all interested'. The society Miss Tuckwell is secretary of [the Women's Protective and Provident League?] helps to 'enforce the Factory & Workshops Act & the Sanitary Laws' since there is 'still an immense amount of evasion and "sweating"'; would like Elizabeth to have heard it. Would 'do a great deal more' if an expedition to Newcastle did not take up at least seven hours. She and Sir George are now going to be very quiet until Christmas. Glad Elizabeth has been for a drive; hopes she will get home this week. Would like Booa [Mary Prestwich] to return to Wallington if she can be spared.
