Lady Jaffe
Lady Jaffe nee Paula Hertz was the wife of German-born British Jewish businessman Sir Otto Jaffe. Sir Otto Jaffe served twice as Lord Mayor of Belfast. From her letters, it seems that Schreiner met the Jaffes when she stayed at Nauheim in Germany in 1914 with Will Schreiner, and she later saw them in London on occasion.
