NotesSome terms used in this record reflect contemporary attitudes and language used during the period. We recognise that some of the terms are outdated, but these terms are recorded within the description to maintain the integrity and accuracy of the record. All such terms are used in the interest of historical accuracy, as altering them would risk falsifying the historical record. It would also be problematic to source non-offensive modern equivalents with a similar meaning. These items do not reflect the views or opinions of the University of Kent, Special Collections & Archives or our staff. We apologise for any offence that our inclusion of these terms may cause.
