There were middle-aged gentlemen spending a week-end in one of the large hotels, carefully dressed; and they walked industriously after too substantial a breakfast to give themselves an appetite for too substantial a luncheon: they exchanged the time of day with friends and talked of Dr. Brighton or London-by-the-Sea.
Brett took out his watch. "At seven p.m., the day after to-morrow," he said coolly. "Until then my address is 'Hotel Metropole, Brighton." He kept his word. Early next morning, after despatching a message to David Hume, and receiving an answer an acknowledgment of his address in case of need he took train to London-by-the-Sea, and for thirty-six hours flung mysteries and intrigues to the winds.
After a hundred years that ended with the Mid-Victorians the exclusiveness of Brighton gave way to the excursion train, and though still a fashionable place, it is now more than ever London-by-the-sea and caters with true courtliness for coster and duke.
