Douglas Mawson, Admiral Creswell, Winnifred Scott, Hon. P. McM Glynn,
K.c. and many others. 'Lady Galway married Sir Henry Lionel Galway. Six
weeks later he was appointed governor of South Australia and took
office on 18 April 1914. Lady Galway founded the South Australian
division of the British Red Cross Society; to assist the sick and
wounded, and establish a missing persons bureau. She directed this
organization until 1919, as she did the Belgian Relief Fund for which
she produced the Lady Galway Belgium Book (1916). Founding
president of the League of Loyal Women, a body that supplied comforts
for servicemen, she also persuaded the Institute of Accountants in
South Australia to train sixty female bookkeepers as temporary
replacements for male clerks who had enlisted. Despite her husband's
zeal in fomenting hysteria against Australians of German descent, no
one seemed to mind that she was half German. She travelled widely,
addressed hundreds of meetings, wrote thousands of letters and helped
to raise over £1,200,000 for patriotic causes. For her efforts she was
awarded the Belgian médaille de la Reine Elisabeth and the médaille de
la Reconnaissance Française, and was appointed dame of grace of the
Order of St John and C.B.E. (1926). Before her departure in January
1919 (fifteen months ahead of her husband) the State's women
war-workers gave her a diamond and opal necklace. Adelaide's
leader-writers noted that her arresting personality, untiring activity
and oratorical power had enabled her to exercise a real influence over
the trend of public thought, and that she had 'raised the whole status
of women in public life'. Fine. Price: $160.00
