See her entry, and those of her husband and their two daughters, in the Oxford DNB. 2pp, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. Folded for postage. Although Sayers' name and address are given as recipient at the beginning, the letter is clearly a circular, and the signature is cylcostyled. It begins: 'Dear Sir, / I venture to appeal to your sympathetic interest in a cause which is very near my heart, and which, in a variety of ways, is voicing the Empire's gratitude to our Sailors.' She requests 'generous support' for the British and Foreign Sailors' Society, which 'has been entrusted by the Authorities with definite responsibility for the immediate welfare of aged mothers, widows and orphans of the heroic men who have fallen while on Active Service'. Later she notes that 'at least £50,000 will be necessary for the great task the Sailors' Society has set itself'. She has personal knowledge of 'its practical methods, its world-wide outlook, and its efficient administration'.

See her entry, and those of Robey and her husband, in the Oxford DNB. 2pp, 4to. In good condition, lightly aged. With two folds. Addressed to 'Geo Robey. Esq. C.B.E.' and signed 'Margaret Lloyd George.' She gives details of a concert she is having at Downing Street the following month, 'in aid of the Electrical Industries Association', and has been asked by its committee to 'invite your kindly assistance'. As Robey has 'already helped so magnificently all sorts of Causes during the past five years in particular' she almost hesitates to ask him, 'buy your readiness to help me in times past encourages me to hope you will again help on this occasion'.
