Uncle Ben.  He looked just like many Downs people and was short.  He came with someone to St.Albans and our Vicarage around 1944??  He amused me a great deal, as he turned the nursery table on its side and slid all our teddy bears, gollywogs etc. down it, with hoots of laughter.  I thought this was a marvellous way of playing and very novel!   But that is all I can remember.  Why he came I don't know.
