Think of what their news from the Balkans will be in the course of another ten or fifteen years. Socialist Congress at Uskub, election riot at Monastir, great dock strike at Salonika, visit of the Y.M.C.A. to Varna. Varna on the coast of that enchanted sea! They will drive out to some suburb to tea, and write home about it as the Bexhill of the East. "War is a wickedly destructive thing."
Constable Wiseman lived in the bosom of his admiring family in a small cottage on the Bexhill Road. That "my father was a policeman" was the proud boast of two small boys, a boast which entitled them to no small amount of respect, because P. C. Wiseman was not only honored in his own circle but throughout the village in which he dwelt.
Being very anxious that they should not lose anything from Miss Townsend's absence, she gave them lessons every day. One day, at the end of a history lesson, Archie said: 'Where's Miss Townsend? 'She's at Bexhill. 'Why is she at Bexhill? 'Because she likes it. 'Where's Bexhill? 'In England. 'Why isn't Miss Townsend? 'What do you mean, Archie? 'Well, why isn't she Miss Townsend any more?
For the last thirty years it has been breaking the way to victory. "The Catholic Evidence Guild" and "Social Guild," like the light cavalry are reconnoitering the lines and positions. The "Motor Chapel" and "The Bexhill Library" that Catholic Post-Library, with its 16,000 volumes are what we call the flying corps of this great Catholic army.
"Yes, nearly dark." "The servants had all gone out?" "Yes." "Was Mr. Minute pleased to see you?" "Yes; he had expected me earlier in the day." "Did he tell you that his nephew was coming to see him?" "I knew that." "You say he suggested that you should make yourself scarce?" "Yes." "And as you had a headache, you went upstairs and lay down on your bed?" "Yes." "What were you doing in Bexhill?"
From Winchester we removed to Portsmouth, where we lay for a week, and were then ordered to Bexhill barracks in Sussex, where our First battalion was lying, and on our arrival a number of men were drafted out of our battalion, which was the Second, into the First, to make it a thousand strong, myself being one of the number.
She has always been very kind to me till now; but I shall let the matter rest. Under the circumstances I suppose I shall not see you any more. May I ask that you should not call or write. I and mother are going to spend the summer at Bexhill with some friends. Our address will be Sandringham, Seaview Road, Bexhill, if you like to write just one line to say good-bye.
Our train homewards was due at Bexhill a little after seven. By five o'clock a change gradual but swift was observed. The clouds which had charmed us all through the morning and afternoon were in reality thunder-clouds, which woke up like a surprised army under perfect discipline, and moved magnificently towards us. Already afar off we heard the softened echoing roll of the thunder.
"I came down from town and got into the wrong portion of the train." A junior leaned over and whispered quickly to his leader. "I see, I see," said the counsel petulantly. "Your ticket was found at Bexhill. Have you ever seen Mr. Rex Holland?" he asked. "Never." "You have never met any person of that name?" "Never."
Large stores of lignite are known to exist in the Weald of the south-east of England, and although the mining operations which were carried on at one time at Heathfield, Bexhill, and other places, were failures so far as the actual discovery of true coal was concerned, yet there can be no doubt as to the future value of the lignite in these parts, when England's supplies of coal approach exhaustion, and attention is turned to other directions for the future source of her gas and paraffin oils.
