Hobhouse (1864-1929), social philosopher and journalist, with amendments added in ink, discussing his favourable view of resolution sent to an [unknown] member, who helped in the [unknown] agitation. He asks Hobhouse whether [John] Morley, politician and writer, will move an amendment to the Address condemning the outbreak of the [Boer] war. Failing this, he suggests that either [William?] Harcourt, politician, or [Leonard] Courtney, journalist and politician, could do it, or finally [Henry Du Pré] Labouchere, journalist and politician, or the Irish.
