Lilian Hughes Carter with her sister May Hughes ran the settlement house Dew Drop Inn, Whitechapel, and provided a country retreat for poor children, prostitutes, and indigent people, most of them from the largely Jewish Whitechapel community. Both sisters learned Yiddish. An account of their activity is found in "The Angels of Whitechapel." (Attached).
