Scope and content

National Council for Civil Liberties, 22 Bride Lane, London E.C. - Apologises for the delay: has been away on holiday and on her return had to catch up on work and the August number of "War and Peace". Encloses a 'beautiful list with some extra names'; some are 'doubtful' since she understands Trevelyan is 'only sending a circular'. Also encloses the most recent list of the Council, as Trevelyan has a 'very old' one. Sends payment for Trevelyan's book [the "Pterodamozels"], since she read in in manuscript and would like a copy; would 'value' his name on the front page. Mr [Bernard] Langdon-Davies has asked to acknowledge Trevelyan's cheque towards the expenses of the Charter [for Freedom? See also 19/58], for which he is very grateful. Adds in a postscript that Langdon-Davies has also received his copy of the "Pterodamozels". [No enclosures now present].

      19/58: letter, 19 July 1917, from Bernard Langdon-Davies to R. C. Trevelyan, which mentions an enclosure, perhaps about the Charter for Freedom, asking for a contribution towards expenses from Trevelyan if he supports it; also has a postscript apparently by Marjorie Manus assuring Trevelyan that she will soon send the list.
