Red's Sister-in-Law

In Hyde Park, a gathering of British friends of Leftist Spain suddenly espied in their midst last week a golden-haired girl wearing a swastika pin. "Throw her in the Serpentine!" shouted enraged friends, spat in the young woman's face, kicked her shins, threw rocks after her as she ran out of Hyde Park. The young woman proved to be the Hon. Unity Valkyrie Freeman-Mitford, a daughter of Lord Redesdale, who is pro-German, and she has worn her swastika ever since it was given her by Adolf Hitler. The Hon. Unity's 19-year-old brother-in-law, Mr. Esmond Marcus David Romilly, a nephew of Winston Churchill, was among the first foreign friends of Leftist Spain to enlist in its People's Army (see p. 21), fought in defense of Madrid, is a British Communist.
