During the dockers' strike I took up my morning paper and read Ben Tillett's speech, at the meeting the day before, to fifty thousand strikers on Tower Hill. "'I am going to ask you to join me in a prayer, Tillett said. 'Lord Devonport has contributed to the murder, by starvation, of your children, your women, and your men.
Tillett's utility costume was of blue checked gingham and had no lines at all except top and bottom, with a belt in between. Both ladies wore huge gingham aprons, and I must say that they looked like the utility branch of the feminine species while I may have resembled the ornamental.
And it was Ben Tillett's prayer in the end that lost them their cause a prayer that filled all England on the next day with the rage of Labour that a man like Ben Tillett, with such a mean, scared, narrow little prayer, should dare to represent Labour.
Tillett herself, I had taken a stuffed egg, a chicken wing, and a slice of jelly-cake for my own supper, along with Baby Tillett's bag of hard biscuits, over on a side aisle, and from that vantage-point I could see the whole party.
