largely based on this . It was on a

afternoon service at the church , each child

are parents or even grandparents

they were a most delightful lot , and

it is a great joy to meet them now

on Sunday afternoon . I hope the threat

kept them good in the week , but anyway

It was quite amusing to see how much

of parents or faithful nurses threaten any

fifty years afterwards when so many

me at once to chronicle a most intimate and

|
|
lasting friendship begun in 1913 in Purley and
|
|
and his family , the youngest of whose three

|
|
Speaking of churchwardens and children leads
|
|
with the Vicar's Warden , Mr. F. W. Charlton
|
|
of 1913 .
|
|
continuing till old age to-day . When I went
|
|
From then till now the acquaintance ripened into a very
|
|
all the many vicissitudes of a long ministry . Mr. and
|
|
Mrs. Charlton have been from the first difficult

deep friendship which I have taken with me through

loyal and devoted friends .

lived on in Purley - have always been

Their homes - for since those years they have

havens of rest , and the welcome has never

frequently , establishing at once a friendly contact with
|
|
at the Royal Herbert Hospital , full of war prisoners .
|
|
In those early years 1914-18 , life was very full
|
|
both in the parish and in the wider war activities .
|
|
The Bishop , knowing that I spent my holidays in
|
|
Bavaria , asked me if I would do something for two wards
|
|
the Bavarian wounded who were delighted to find
|
|
I was very glad to help in this way , and visited them
|
|
someone who knew their native villages .
|
|
scorned these more simple country folk .
|
|
I could at once notice the great antagonism
|
|
between the Bavarians and the Prussians who openly

|
general system of " francs-tireurs " , to be named
|
|
lead to disaster . Then there had been much talk of

Less than no response from the Russian side led

outcome that the Nazis evidently hoped might

one to fear that the event might well have the
|
|
the setting up among the German population of a

|
thousand of Nazi rule , so far from creating
|
|
universally a dull bewildered apathy .
|
|
meeting of East and West was marked by
|
|
more than a fantasy . Thanks to the good
|
|
sense of the front line soldiers , the
|
|
vodka . And the effect on the German people
|
|
of the first ten years of the promised
|
|
the use of no weapon more lethal than
|
|
a spirit of warlike frenzy , had produced

The Nazi fortress concept turned out to be nothing

|
|
special precautions to guard the lives of our airmen . Particular

and death over Germany , causing such wholesale slaughter among

So far had our thinking led us in this matter of the

men , women and children , old and young alike .
