The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 74

18, Rawlinson Road, Oxford, 5th June, 1896

18, Rawlinson Road, Oxford,

Dear Sir,—

I am desired by the executive of the Mid-Oxon Women's Liberal Association to express to you our grateful appreciation of your statement, at a recent by-election, that the raising of the age of consent would be insisted on during the next session of the Legislative Council of New Zealand, as would, also, the removal of a "shameful and objectionable statute."

It is most encouraging to hear of such words spoken by the Prime Minister of a great colony; and our earnest hope is that these two measures of justice may be carried in your Legislative Council by a large majority.

I have, &c,

Catherine B. Drummond,

Hon. Sec. Mid-Oxon W.L.A. The Hon. B. Seddon.
