'The Prime Minister [William Ewart Gladstone]...received two deputations last week...representing the two rival associations, called the National Education League and the National Education Union...The deputation [of the National Education League] numbered about 400 persons [ie men], and the rooms were densely crowded. A second deputation, of Welsh Dissenting ministers from a conference held in Wales followed on the same day; and on Saturday Mr. Forster, at the Privy Council Office, received one from the Congregational Union. The deputation, on the Friday, from the National Education Union, included several peers, seventy members of Parliament, a great many clergymen of the Church of England, and some Nonconformist ministers, with managers and trustees of various classes of existing schools.
