*Easter Rebellion - Ireland 1916. Two autograph letters signed ‘Alice' [Wimborne, to her mother Lady Ebury], Vice Regal Lodge, Dublin, dated May 2nd and Friday [5th May, 1916], being eye-witness accounts of the troubles accompanying the Rebellion as seen from the Viceroy's home in Phoenix Park, ‘It has all calmed down now but its been a terrible time. One more awful tragedy in this beloved land - it makes my heart ache. I am so sorry you were anxious', continuing ‘Well darling, we had been anxious about Sein Fane for sometime past, it has been jumpy [?]. Ivor all along took a grave view & tried his best to get more troops more of everything but was not listened to. I don't want to blame anybody but I tell you this for your private information. Had he had his way this never would have happened or at any rate might never have happened - I think everyone did their best but they were wrong & he was right. You know the position of the Lord Lieutenant he can only suggest but has no power. On Saturday morning Sir Roger Casement was captured & the connection between Sein Fane & Germany established. H. E. then urged instant action - impossible to carry the others with him', and later continuing, ‘Monday came, I was washing my hands for luncheon when I was rung up and told to say in my bedroom, Sein Fane had attacked the castle & might come here. We were lunching early as the special left at 2010 - I went down & found Ivor very calm but very white - he begged me to go to Headfort but I told him I would sooner die', and continuing in some detail to relate these events, 16 pages, the second letter noting that she thinks all danger is over now, ‘But we had some very critical hours & have had I think a very miraculous escape', and later noting ‘The rebels are in houses, & shoot at the troops so as to effectually prevent them from coping with things as numerically & from every other point of view they should be able to. But it can only be a question of days ...', 4 pages, all on Vice Regal Lodge letterhead, 4to, together with another autograph letter from Alice to Maudie [probably her sister Maud Glyn of Albury Hall in Hertfordshire], Copped Hall, Epping, Essex, 26th September, no year, with family news and gossip plus mention of a Zeppelin attack, ‘Yes, we did see the Zeppelin. I woke about 12:20 - hearing distinct firing - I went out to listen, & the searchlights were all around - I woke A & B but they said it was too distant to come out for, & stayed in their rooms - so I had rather a wonderful time to myself, outside the front door for the chattering maids didn't wake til much later. There was nothing very near - but the flash & sound of bombs London ways & guns & then a Zep passed overhead from London to Chelmsford way - very high, out of sight - all the birds & beasts were uneasy in the still clear night - then from the river way came sounds of a battle - bigger guns & the upper windows rattled - then, low down in the S.G. I saw two eyes of light that got bigger rapidly - as if a big motor was coming in the sky - & then a burst of flame & smoke - & the shape of a burning Zep clearly - like a fool I was so thrilled that I felt Jimmy must see & left it burning, as you might say, & rushed in to him and shook him awake', 6 pp., 4to, plus an eleven page typed copy letter from Honourable Hugh Grovesnor at the Foreign Office in Peking, 18th November 1897 to H. Foley concerning Corea, Kiau-Chow and loan negotiations, plus three other Glyn related family-related items.
