Whitehead 1941: “During
our residence at Grantchester (189…), I did a considerable amount of political
speaking in Grantchester and in the country villages of the district…. It was
exciting work, as the whole village attended and expressed itself vigorously ….
Rotten eggs and oranges were effective party weapons, and I have often been
covered by them. But they were indications of vigour, rather than of bad
feeling.”
