See his entry in the Oxford DNB. Both letters 2pp, 12mo. In good condition, but with the first bearing two tape stains. Both folded for postage. Each signed 'R. E. Prothero' and addressed to 'Dear Mr. Speaker'. ONE (1 July 1918): He explains that 'Agricultural labourers are specially excluded from the category of men to whom the War Office appeal to the V.T.C is addressed', but that it was 'only to be expected, as I had pointed out, that the appeal would still be made to them and that they would go in the middle of the harvest season. / The scheme is opposed by the Min. of Nat Service and by the military heads of the W. O.' A 'special Cabinet meeting' is to be held the following day, 'to discuss the question, and, I hope, to cancel the appeal'. TWO (5 September 1918): Discussing the rapid deterioration of 'cotton cake' when in store. He has 'repeatedly impressed this fact on the Ministry of Food, by whose orders the distribution of cake is held up. But their feeding stuffs Departt. is impervious to facts as well as arguments.' He continues: 'There is a good reason for doling out cake with a niggard hand, for it is extremely short and the Shipping Controller cannot afford tonnage for more imports. With the comparative failure of the root crops, the position looks like becoming serious.' He continues in the same forthright way, including the observation that 'Feeding stuffs would be better in the Board of Agriculture. But there is a big But.' He explains that he has no authority in Scotland or Ireland, or 'over mills', and that he 'cannot fix prices for any feeding stuffs'.

A very nice item relating to one of the greatest and best-loved of all cricketers: his signature to a scorecard of his final innings in first-class cricket, in which he scored a hundred, accompanied by a newspaper cutting describing the event. Official scorecard with serial number, printed on both sides of a 24 x 12.5 cm piece of card. Priced at twopence, and headed: 'This card does not necessarily include the fall of the last wicket | 2d. Lords [MCC device] Ground | Middlesex v. Surrey | Saturday & Monday, August 28, 30, 1937. (Three-day Match.)'. On reverse is a list of 'Matches for the Season at Lord's, 1937.', followed by details of 'Elementary Schoolboys' Matches at Lord's', topped and tailed by advertisements. The scorecard has been filled-in in manuscript, completing details of the Surrey first innings (all out for 509) and with Middlesex replying with a first innings of 377 for 6 at the end of the day. '4 Hendren, E.' is recorded in manuscript as being out 'c. Fishlock, b. Squires 103', and beside this he has written his signature: 'E Patsy Hendren/'. The next man in is '5 Compton, D.', who was 'c. Gregory b. Parker 28'. In manuscript at the head of the page: 'Patsy Hendren's last century in first-class cricket. | August 30, 1937.' The scorecard is accompanied by a 24 x 6 cm newspaper cutting of a report titled: '"Patsy" Goes Out with a Big Knock | Wonderful Farewell to Most Popular Man In Cricket | ("Universe" Sports Correspondent)'. An appreciative article with a caricature of Hendren, describing 'The unprecedented reception accorded "Patsy" Hendren at Lord's on Monday, on the occasion of his last appearance for Middlesex in a county championship match'. Hendren was 'Cheered all the way to the wicket and there cheered again by the Surrey players [.] When he made the stroke which brought him into three figures, the delight of the spectators knew no bounds. They cheered and clapped for several minutes and then sang together "For he's a jolly good fellow."' The latter part of the article describes Hendren's 'Great Career': 'He will go down in cricket history as the most popular player of all time. | Next season "Patsy" will start coaching at Harrow, so he will not be lost to the game.'.
