"Members and others are requested to note that, a vote of the Party having been taken, H. J. Hawkins was on February 4th, 1905, expelled from membership of The Socialist Party of Great Britain."
Hawkins was a founder member of the SPGB, and was a member of Clerkenwell Branch. According to the membership records he was expelled for "action detrimental", which involved the harassment of Alex Anderson.
