Thomas Burt (1837-1922), trade union leader and Radical Member of Parliament; General Secretary, Northumberland Miners' AssociatBiblio.com

Thomas Burt trade union leader and Radical Member of Parliament. Three Autograph Letters Signed and one Secretarial Letter Signed to A.G.L. Rogers Secretary of the Liberal Publication Department regarding the composition of publicity leaflets.

249232 June 1892; and 2 and 11 February and 11 October 1893. The first two on House of Commons letterhead; the third on letterhead of the Reform Club Pall Mall; the fourth from Cromer on letterhead of the Board of Trade Whitehall London. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. Under Gladstone Burt served as Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Trade 1892-1895. From the papers of Arthur George Liddon Rogers 1864-1944 son of the editor of the economist Thorold Rogers and written while Rogers was Secretary of the Liberal Publication Department a sort of public relations department a position to which he was appointed in November 1891. The four items all addressed to ‘Dear Mr Rogers’ and signed ‘Thos Burt’ are all bifoliums in good condition folded for postage. ONE 2 June 1892: 2pp 12mo. With regard to an LPD publication he regrets that he ‘cannot do the leaflet’. Not only does he have ‘more work on hand than I can get through my having a member of the Royal Commission inquiring into the subject hampers me’. He does not think he could ‘with propriety write publicly on the subject at a time when I am engaged with others in preparing the Report’. TWO 2 February 1893: 4pp 12mo. A ‘rush of correspondence’ has left him without a ‘spare minute’. He is enclosing a letter from one of his constituents ‘in the hope that you may be able to forward him some leaflets bearing upon the points he mentions’. Burt’s own paper ‘on the Mines Reg Act that I wrote for you might be useful and I have no doubt you have something on Free Education and the other questions referred to’. He asks if there is ‘a cheap edition of Mr John Nohle’s book’. He ends with reference to the return of a book and the settling of an account. THREE 11 February 1893. 2pp 12mo. In thanking him for his ‘kind letter & for yr prompt attention to my request’ he is returning a cheque. FOUR 11 October 1893. 4pp 12mo. In a secretarial hand with Burt’s autograph signature. He is ‘away from the Board of Trade until Parliament re-assembles’ and is consequently ‘not in a position myself to verify all the facts contained in the enclosed pamphlet’. He believes ‘the facts given are strictly accurate except under the heading Seaman’s Wages’. As ‘chairman of the departmental Comttee that enquired into the subject’ he makes suggestions towards the way ‘the beginning of that paragraph should I think be somewhat modified’. He knows ‘that steps are now being taken to extend the system to foreign posts. If the leaflet is not issued before I return to the B of T I will make further enquiry should you so desire with a view to ensure absolute correctness.’ 2 June 1892; and 2 and 11 February, and 11 October, 1893. The first two on House of Commons letterhead; the third on letterhead unknown
