Abstract
Description
Photograph probably dates from the early 1920s. Lancelot Giles was British Consul at Changsha from April 1919 to 1925. "Cuth" or "Cuthbert" (also "Margy") were nicknames for Marjory House (nee Giles b. 1913). "The nickname originated from a popular song during the War (WWI) called 'Hop it Cuthbert' which seemed suitable for a young child always under people's feet at that time." - the donor.
