Letter from Sir Wilfrid Spender to his wife Lillian in which he briefly touches on many subjects: a misinterpreted letter, an appointment of Lillian's, a flat to which Lillian has recently moved, the purchase of Christmas presents, financial matters, holiday leave, and a recent ride to the front with "the General", which ended in both Spender and his companion getting lost. This letter is part of a series of correspondence from Captain Sir Wilfrid Bliss Spender to his wife Lady Lillian Spender, née Dean, (1880-1968).. The letters date mainly from 1915 to 1918, when Sir Wilfrid was serving in France. The letters concern politics, the Irish question, personal life, and Wilfrid's experience of the Great War. Sir Wilfrid Spender (1876 - 1960) was a member of the British Army until 1913 when controversy surrounding his signature of the Ulster Solemn League and Covenant resulted in his resignation. Spender was called up for military service in 1914, and served as an officer of the Ulster Division until 1916. Throughout the war, Spender remained in contact with the Ulster Unionist leadership, and consistently opposed Home Rule and the six-county solution. Lady Lillian was an organiser of the Ulster Division Comforts Fund during the war, and a member of the Ulster Volunteer Nursing Corps.
