Ann Hawker writes: The fine obituary of the Olympic fencer and sports administrator Dame Mary Glen Haig referred to her full-time work as a hospital administrator. I first encountered her in that capacity at the Royal National Orthopaedic hospital in Stanmore, north-west London. Mrs Glen Haig, as she was then, gave me a job there when I needed one badly and would have appeared, on the surface, to be a really dicey bet. I didn’t let her down. I don’t think anyone did, or could have, let her down, not Mrs Glen Haig.
