HIS DAYAsquith received a letter from David Lloyd George suggesting a conversation about the Irish question the following week.
In-Person Meetingⓘ

HER DAYLikely in London, in her usual June “Season” round: seeing Asquith (they had been together at the Opera on 24 June, and she was close enough to be commenting on his speeches), and moving in the Thursday/Friday social circuit (dinners/parties connected with Ottoline Morrell and other friends).. No firm evidence she was already away in the country or on travel on 26 June; the only clear travel clue nearby is that she was expected to be “away in the North all the end of next week” (i.e., early July), which implies she was still in London on 26 June.
