<p>From Mrs Kenney Taylor</p>

<p> </p>
<p>My Dear Nell and Frank.</p>
<p> You will I know be pleased to hear that your Christmas Parcel arrived quite safely. The contents were <u>most</u> welcome and they arrived just at the right time for us.</p>
<p> How are <u>you?</u> We should love to hear how <u>Frank</u> is and if he likes his new post. The articles were interesting. There is no need to tell you how things are going here, you get that in the news, any how, however bad things are, we shall get through it’s <u>our</u> destiny as the British Race, for we are the highest state of [consciousness] in the world to day. That is</p>
<p>[<em>Note: AK has added ‘over page’ diagonally in the corner of Page 1 – it could refer to the crossed our word above but it seems to relate to the ‘British Race’ point</em>.]</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[Page 2]</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The British Commonwealth of Nations. America of course is part of the Great Heritage. Warwick this coming week will finish his first course, if he succeeds, he will pass on to a flying school.</p>
<p>We had him home for the whole of Christmas it was lovely and he had one of the best holidays.</p>
<p>We were feeling a little [<em>illegible</em>] when he arrived because for the first time in his life we had not a bird on the Table for Christmas Day, and we know that it might be his last Christmas with us, any how fate decided otherwise[.] Jessie won <u>two chickens</u> in a Raffle, then Jim took Warwick to see a [Brother] who is in the country and he gave Warwick a 14lb Goose and £1 for a Christmas Present, then your parcel with two [articles] which are like gold in [these] day[s]. Therefore we did grand, and a real lovely time we had. I am enclosing a photo of Warwick in his Home Guard suit.</p>
<p>The times I have seen him dressed like this go out at night at all hours snow and rain, hail and frost, especially while the danger of invasion hung over these Islands. He was grand and it has helped him very much in his training for the Fleet Air Arm.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[Page 3]</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Tell Frank that Jim, one day, when he has time, will write him a long letter about [The Centre]. Well Nell dear and Frank and all the [<em>illegible</em>] our love and a big hug from us all. </p>
<p> <u>Annie </u></p>
<p><u> </u></p>
<p>[<em>Note: the following note was centralised under the above letter</em>.] </p>
<p>Tell Frank, we received his cuttings about change in his work we hope to find time to write him a long letter about the Centre [<em>illegible words – possibly </em><span><em>‘he wanted’, ‘he visited’ or ‘he was’</em></span> ] with cuttings from our local paper.</p>

Letter from Jessie Kenney to Prime Minister Anthony Eden and Thank You card, 1957

War
Description
An account of the resource
Jessie Kenney wrote to Sir Anthony Eden, UK Prime Minister from 1955 to 1957, to express her support of his methods for dealing with the Suez Crisis. The Suez Crisis, or the Second Arab-Israeli War, was an invasion of Egypt in 1956 followed by the UK and France, aiming to regain control of the Suez Canal. Political pressure from the other global powers, including the United Nations and the Soviet Union, forced them to withdraw. The episode is regarded as a failure of British foreign policy and put an end to Eden’s political career. Jessie’s view was that the British invasion was justified and she commended Eden on his show of courage and strength. “We [the British] have been taking it ‘on the chin’,” she writes, “ever since we won the war of 1939, and the more we have worked for peace, the more we have subscribed to it, when we could ill afford it, and to the backward nations to help them get independence.”
Also included is a Thank You card sent from PM Eden's Office.

An account of the resource
Letter from Warwick Kenney-Taylor to his uncle Frank dated 21 May 1941
Warwick writes to his uncle to update him on “the goings on of our little family group”. He talks about his auntie Jessie having to leave her flat in South London and move to Hertfordshire with Annie and James due to the danger of a German attack. Jessie works long hours as a night supervisor of female labour at the same firm as Warwick. Annie, we are told, is keeping the “home flag flying” and caring for everybody. In the second half of the letter, he begins to talk about the ongoing WWII, stating that Air Raids have not reached their part of England. At this stage, Warwick has joined the Home Guard and serves as a “Corporal in the Machine Gun Section” in his local company. In the following October, he hopes to be called in to serve in the Fleet Air Arm of the Royal Navy. He also mentions food rationing, which was imposed in Britain during WWII, stating that it is “getting a bit tight, but there’s still plenty of grub”. Warwick closes the letter by wishing his uncle and family health and luck in the years to come.

<p><strong>Transcript – KP/AK/5/1</strong></p>
<p> 1, Campers Road,</p>
<p> Letchworth,</p>
<p> Herts.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> July 14<sup>th</sup> 1944.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Dear Miss Craigie,</p>
<p> The longer I reflect on your proposed idea of a Film portraying the Women’s movement [Note: transcriber has added apostrophes to this and similar phrases throughout], firmer becomes my opposition to the scheme. I am absolutely certain that this is not the time for a film of that period to be written. <u>To ensure a box office success</u> a film on the Woman’s movement should have been written long before <u>this</u> <u>war</u>. Who cares to-day, or who is likely to care for many a day to come, what women did 30 years ago.</p>
<p> A film produced to-day on the Woman’s movement would bring neither a tear, sigh or a laugh.</p>
<p> Why should we expect the Cinema public to sigh at the small tragedies or laugh at the lighter side of that struggle, when they are witnessing a tragedy which envelopes [<em>envelops</em>] the whole earth, and before our very eyes we see a modern “Slaughter of the Innocents”. Mothers’ sons are giving their fresh young lives and shedding their clean blood so that mankind can breathe and live as free men in a free world.</p>
<p>What an epic of real heroes, how very small and insignificent [<em>insignificant</em>] was the Woman struggle to become citizens!</p>
<p> I wonder if you have any idea of the tremendous</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[Page 2]</p>
<p> </p>
<p>and important part the two founders of the movement played in the <u>last</u> War, and we who had perfect faith in them not only gave of our best for woman’s suffrage, but when war broke out in 1914 we served our country as loyally as we served the movement.</p>
<p> It was not until 1914 that we came in close contact with the owners and editors of the leading newspapers. We not only met the leading men of our wonderful clean press but we were in close touch with the leading statesmen and literary men and women in the Allied countries. How could a film be of <u>any</u> <u>historic </u>interest without that period being enacted.</p>
<p> Mr Lloyd George as Minister of Munitions, admitted in an interview with Mrs Pankhurst and myself, that we were the only group of organised women to whom he could appeal for help in his war effort.</p>
<p> What knowledge have you of those missions that sent a few of us to all parts of the world. Women did far more than wave flags, hold meetings, raise tremendous sums of money, be arrested and suffer imprisonment. There was something profound and sublime underneath all this surface work; there were the romantic characters of its two founders.</p>
<p> I write this to make you understand that it is</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[Page 3]</p>
<p> </p>
<p>futile to expect to create an atmosphere round these two vivid personalities and unique crusaders when neither are here to guide and inspire a Film of this nature; and we who loved them best and who were with them all through the struggle, are too busy and far too occupied with War work to enable us to meet and discuss the outlines of a Film. Christabel Pankhurst who is at the present time in America was the central figure, who for years, charmed, converted and won the allegiance of the women of Britain.</p>
<p> During the imprisonment of Mrs Pankhurst and Mrs and Mr Pethick Lawrence, Christabel Pankhurst placed upon my shoulders the heavy mantle of full responsibility for the movement; I who hated publicity, and still do, but in me she placed perfect confidence in my good sense and keen sensitiveness [note: handwritten change from original typewritten ‘sensibility’]. In her absence to-day I again feel the same responsibility [note: handwritten correction of ‘responsibility’ to ‘responsibleness’(?) which is then crossed out]. That is why I am writing so fully, stating why I object and distrust the wisdom of what seems to me a mistaken idea.</p>
<p> In conclusion I would rather that you did not use my name [note: handwritten correction of original typewritten ‘I must ask you not to use my name’] or make me one of the characters in any way, and I am certain that Cristabel Pankhurst will feel the same as I do on this matter. [Handwritten addition, written below original typed letter, here is indicated by arrow – ‘Christabel Pankhurst has ^already chosen the writer of a Film on this subject.’] We value the dignity and the fine reputation that was ours, and until happier and more peaceful</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[Page 4]</p>
<p> </p>
<p>days return, we must do the duty that lies nearest to our hand and put on one side all retrospection of the past, keeping our eyes fixed on the present, looking forward to a brighter future, for in this way we serve the highest and the best.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> Yours truly,</p>
<p> Annie Kenney. [Handwritten signature]</p>

Description
An account of the resource
Annie replies to Jill Craigie’s request for help and consultation for a film script based on the history of the suffragette movement. She objects to and distrusts the idea, partly because of its timing and partly because of its substance. “Why should we expect the Cinema public to sigh at the small tragedies or laugh at the lighter side of that struggle, when they are witnessing a tragedy which envelops the whole earth, and before our very eyes we see a modern ‘Slaughter of Innocents’”. Annie implies that Jill Craigie lacks a sense of the nature of the movement: “Women did more than wave flags, hold meetings, raise tremendous sums of money, be arrested and suffer imprisonment. There was something profound and sublime underneath all this surface work”. She recalls having the weight of full responsibility for the movement placed upon her shoulders when Christabel Pankhurst was exiled in Paris, a responsibility she feels is renewed with regards to the proposed film project. She explicitly states that she doesn’t want her name to be used in relation to it or as a character. She finishes the letter by stating: “We value the dignity and the fine reputation that was ours, and until a happier and more peaceful days return, we must do our duty that lies nearest to our hand and put on one side all retrospection of the past, keeping our eyes fixed on the present”.

Passport (Jessie Kenney)
Description
An account of the resource
Jessie Kenney’s passport, issued on 9 June 1917 and renewed on 10 April 1919. Provides a physical description and contains a number of international stamps from Jessie’s travels. Her 1917 trip to Russia, on which she accompanied Mrs Emmeline Pankhurst (1858-1928), to lobby Russian women to contribute to the war effort on behalf of the British government is one of her most significant contributions to the British war effort. During their stay, they met with The First Women’s Battalion of Death, led by Maria Bochkarëva, and participated in procession with them. In her unpublished memoir, Jessie called it “one of the greatest patriotic demonstrations being held during the revolution.” In October 1917, the Women’s Battalion was called upon to defend the Winter Palace, but the 1000-strong battalion was unable to overcome the 40 000 Bolshevik soldiers and surrendered. Jessie was very critical of the Bolsheviks, despite her own working-class roots. In a diary entry from the Russian trip, she wrote: “[The Bolsheviks] were out to cause anarchy and hatred amongst the people, and against the Allies, those Allies who had helped Russia in every possible way.” In addition, the passport contains stamps from France, Switzerland, and Austria.
