“ They now proceeded to drink gin - whiskey - Port, all over our little 4 down, 4 rooms upstairs Deptford home … They trampled the garden where the tall grass was left with the spring bulbs growing … they tramped about the house, upstairs too, and COST UP every item of furniture, pictures, tableware, BOOKS that are rare or first editions : they, as usual `nicked` … ”

“ … my father said after they had gone `the last time LINDSAY vampire magpies get in our door ! ` We must say in future `going out - Police on door, or that guests coming to call … or we are going to a Ball for retired Policemen and their good families …`

That late afternoon Frederick Charles had to tell them … `they calling themselves Cousin LINDSAYS they were` … that some eminent visitors would arrive for tea and cake and the evening … Dad said he must insist that they, the Noble Lindsay families, must now leave … the Policeman would come to see the late afternoon and evening eminent visitors were not disturbed … ”
