Both items good, on lightly-aged paper. Letter One: 4to, 1 p. Begins 'The College today at its Special General Meeting did itself the honour of electing you to an Honorary Fellowship. We trust that it may not be unacceptable to you to be thus associated with our Society. There are no duties, save that of wearing a surplice in Chapel on Sundays and Feasts of the Church.' He thanks Gore for his 'generous words' of the previous day. Letter Two: 4to, 2 pp. He thanks him for his 'helpful letter about David' [Gore's son, the Conservative politician William David Ormsby-Gore, 5th Baron Harlech (1918-1985)], and consequently raises no objection 'to his being out of College in the Autumn', which 'may well prove to be the best thing for him'. The previous day David told Fisher 'that he was anxious to go into the House of Commons as soon as possible'. Fisher 'can see from his appreciation of Thucydides and de Tocqueville which is obviously genuine that his mind is taking a political shape.' He sees 'gleams of unusual promise about the boy', and thinks that 'As his physical strength improves and as the memories of those shocks to which you allude fade into the background [.] he will gain in confidence and concentration'. Characterises him as being at that time 'wayward, elusive, casual rather than idle, decidedly with occasional touches of brilliance, extremely sensitive and reserved' and with 'a certain distinction of nature'. He 'gave up the Hebdomadal Council' after his illness the previous year and does not know 'what is afoot about Honorary Degrees'.

All three items in good condition, with texts clear and complete, on lightly-aged paper. Letter One: 9 January 1913. Typed. 8vo, 3 pp. Bifolium. Twenty-eight lines. Sending florid congratulations on Ormsby-Gore's forthcoming marriage, and describing him as 'one who is bearing burdens bravely & buoyantly in the public service, & striving honestly to do his duty to God & man'. His bride-to-be, Beatrice Edith Mildred Gascoyne-Cecil, is described as 'a maiden like-minded'. Letter Two: 28 April 1913. Typed. 4to, 1 p. Fifteen lines typed and a short autograph postscript. Suggesting a 'small private conference' to 'avert the present peril' in 'the Welsh Church'. Letter Three: 9 May 1914. Typed. Landscape 8vo, 1 p. Half typed, half autograph. Begins 'There is no tougher problem than the problem of defining "a layman", and I am certainly not equal to the task.'.

Text of both letters clear and complete, on aged, grubby paper. The 'Diehards' were a group of right-wing Conservative peers who attempted unsuccessfully to thwart Liberal legislation to limit the right of veto of the House of Lords over Commons legislation. (See G. D. Phillips, 'The Diehards: Aristocratic Society and Politics in Edwardian England', Cambridge, Mass., 1979.) TYPED LETTER: 17 December 1913. 4to, 1 p. He is going to try to write the history of the affair '[b]efore things fade altogether from my memory', and asks if OG has 'any papers, or letters, or diaries'. 'I propose to begin by recounting what took place at a very small house party here on the Saturday immediately after the election, and then to give my own account of the famous luncheon at Almeric Paget's.' Asks if OG can give an account of 'a house party at Hatfield of a particularly interesting character, of which you were one'. Also refers to 'our supper party at the Marlborough Club'. In a final sentence (in autograph) he states that the account is 'for Private circulation only, unless I am asked to Publish it'. AUTOGRAPH LETTER: 30 December [1913]. 4to, 2 pp. He has now 'resolved to write a chronicle of the whole thing, from December 1910 for publication, keeping back nothing [.] one or two intimate things, e.g. "l'affaire Hardwicke", may not perhaps appear. I remember all about that night, and the meetings at Chelsea and Holborn, as well as the Welbeck Party, and of course the Almeric Paget luncheon'. Asks OG to ballot in the Commons (where he was M.P. for Denbigh) for a bill he is going to introduce into the Lords next session: 'Holmes is going to, I believe'. Willoughby de Broke does not appear to have published an account of the affair before the appearance of his memoirs, 'The Passing Years', in 1924.
