Catherine Glynne was born in 1812, in the same year as Charles Dickens. An earl's daughter she married the son of a self-made merchant, William Ewart Gladstone, who became Queen Victoria's Prime Minister on four occasions. While the Queen and the PM loathed each other, they both loved Catherine, Gladstone's wife. After a long and indecisive courtship, Gladstone said of his new wife that my Cathie forever twinkles. Society remarked that her beauty showed a profound intelligence. Catherine loved being in the main stream of action but disliked politicians, fashion and social niceties. Unusual for the time Gladstone was present at the birth of each of their eight children and Catherine insisted on feeding them herself. Mrs Gladstone's primary concern was support of the poor - in particular those suffering from cholera, near-starving mill girls and homeless orphans. She established the concept of free convalescent homes and her common-sense influenced the Poor Laws. To maintain her genius for charity she took every opportunity to approach Gladstone's friends for financial support for her good works. In return she found places for her husband's 'rescue' women - young girls forced into prostitution as a result of poverty. When her brother's ironworks failed Catherine and her family faced poverty. It was Gladstone's financial skills that saved the family from bankruptcy. Catherine died on 14th June, 1900. Pertinent to this biography is the letter the author wrote to the Church Times about the reasons behind the riots in London and elsewhere in the United Kingdom, in August 2011. The letter header - "Mrs Gladstone! thou shouldst be living at this hour" - drew attention to a personality who in her time confronted severe social need through community action (the letter text is reproduced on the Press website).

Excerpt from Mrs. Gladstone Given to England statesmen and other leaders of thought, men and women who had influenced public opinion. She was by temperament, intellect, and training admirably fitted to be the wife of a leader in the community. With Gladstone's purposes and ideals she was thoroughly sympathetic, and we have testimony in his own words as to the value of her loyal co-operation in his work. The record that is here presented comes from the pen of a loving daughter who had intimate personal knowledge of the life and the home circle, and who has secured from old-time friends of the family information on matters that were not within her own direct experience. The picture given of Mrs. Gladstone, a typical English woman of the highest class, a loving wife and mother, and a loyal co-worker, is most attractive. The life is one that is deserving of commemoration, and the record of it should prove of interest to thousands of American readers who are able to understand the value of the service rendered to England and to the world by the great Liberal leader.
