Shu had had good business training and was ready to assist a lady in London who might require help with correspondence, entertainment (and shopping. Miss Gardner said:—"l don't mind scrubbing a floor or washing up dirty plates and dishes. I must have work, because at present I have only a small income. People who have an income of thousands a year have no idea what it is like to live on £IOO a year. " I have no sympathy with tTic idle rich. I like people that do .things. 1 love work and I don't mind under what circumstances I work. I have had three offers, but 1 shall wait until the morning's post before 1 decide on anything. I should prefer a secretarial post in a big business." From 1892 to 1895 Miss Gardner's father, Mr. Herbert Gardner, was Presi : dent of the Board of Agriculture, and at the dissolution in 1895 was made Baron Burghclere.
