Stuff You Missed in History Class

CHAPTER

The Importance of Caroline Talford

Talford introduced a bill that would allow mothers accused of and cleared of the charge of adultery to take custody of any children under seven years of age. The vote was heavily skewed in favor of changes to the existing law, but once it passed to the House of Lords, it failed by a measly two votes. In part two, we will cover Caroline's ongoing battles with her husband and another piece of litigation that she influenced. Do you also have some listener mail for us? I do.
