Violet Trefusis (née Keppel; 6 June 1894 – 29 February 1972) was an English socialite and author. She is chiefly remembered for her lengthy affair with the writer Vita Sackville-West that both women continued after their respective marriages. It was featured in novels by both parties; in Virginia Woolf's novel Orlando: A Biography; and in many letters and memoirs of the period roughly from 1912 to 1922. She may have been the inspiration for aspects of the character Lady Montdore in Nancy Mitford's Love in a Cold Climate and of Muriel in Harold Acton's The Soul's Gymnasium (1982).
Trefusis herself wrote many novels, as well as non-fiction works, both in English and in French. Although some of her books sold well, others went unpublished, and her overall critical heritage remains lukewarm.

More than 56 per cent, of the volume of the trading in yesterday's market was in Sugar stock, and the interest in its fluctuations was so great that at times the trading posts of all other specialties were abandoned by brokers to join in the Sugar crowd. The news from Washington was anxiously waited for, and pending the announcement of the voting in the Senate the price was very strong.

CHICAGO, June 5. -- Wheat scored another advance to-day, and, although the bulls made complaint that the grain was not proportionate to the value of the news, still they were satisfied that prices closed 1/6c higher than they did yesterday. There were many influences at work, and it would not have been surprising had there been a more substantial upturn.
