AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The holiday outing of a flash young man and a fashionable calculating West End shop girl to Eastbourne by railway culminates neither in his amorous success or her financial reward but in an arrest for her and her 'father' for their con game by her companion alias Inspector Gripe. Holiday atmosphere at Victoria station or on the sands at Eastbourne well described. (PB)
