Scope and Content

Postcard sent from F.W. Hirst (1873-1953), journalist and writer, to L.T. Hobhouse (1864-1929), social philosopher and journalist, recommending that if he and [C.P.] Scott want [John] Morley, politician and writer, to attend their anti-war meeting in Manchester, to refrain from contacting him until he makes contact [with L.T. Hobhouse]. This has been advised by Mrs [Rose] M[orley], a previous letter from Scott having had a detrimental effect. Hirst believes that it is best for Hobhouse to force Morley to decide now whether to attend before he sees more of events.
