A 1914-15 Star awarded to Lieutenant-Colonel R. Locke, Inland Water Transport, Royal Engineers, late Army Service Corps, who was admitted in July 1917 to the ex-Officer’s Hospital at St Omer, suffering from an ulcer of an amputation stump, and was Mentioned in Despatches The War having significantly changed his outlook on life, Locke was caught ‘in flagrante’ with his French maid, but was - somewhat remarkably - forgiven by his wife, and ordered to resume his ‘conjugal rights’ by the Divorce Court 1914-15 Star (Lieut. R. Locke. A.S.C.) good very fine £60-£80 --- M.I.D. London Gazette 17 December 1918: ‘For distinguished and gallant services and devotion to duty.’ Roderick Luck Locke was born at Hartlip, Kent, on 12 September 1875. Educated locally at Borden School, Locke travelled to South Africa where he married Eleonore Meyer Polson at Bloemfontein on 15 February 1906. Appointed to a commission with the Army Service Corps, he served as a Lieutenant in the Balkans from May 1915. According to The Globe Newspaper on 31 January 1921, Locke’s marriage began to crumble following cessation of the Great War: ‘The “Wanderlust”… Husband who preferred to remain in Cologne. Roderick Locke, said to have been a Captain in the Royal Army Service Corps and now living in Cologne, was respondent in the Divorce Court this afternoon, when Mrs. Eleanor Myer [sic] Locke of St. Charles’ Square, Notting Hill, secured a decree for restitution of conjugal rights. Petitioner said she married respondent at Bloemfontein in February, 1906, and lived with him afterwards in South Kensington, and later in Africa and Canada. On return from Canada her husband joined the Army Service Corps. In August, 1919, she joined him at Cologne, and there saw him familiar with his French maid. She forgave him, however, and lived with him, but afterwards returned to London. She wrote asking him to give up the idea of living as a civilian in Germany. He replied that he could not leave his business in Cologne, and that if she did not like living there they must live apart. “In any case,” the letter continued, “I prefer to be free, as my affairs tend to hold me as a man without a home. The war has increased in me the wanderlust, which has held me for the last 30 years, and I see no chance in it abating as I grow older.” “Choose your own life.” “The idea of a settled humdrum existence is still abhorrent to me. Choose your own life now, and my efforts will be directed towards helping you in every way, bar sharing it with you. I am very, very sorry, and I have suffered accordingly, but I cannot help it. Best of luck and happiness that you can screw out of this rotten old world – Yours, Rod.” Having listened to the full particulars of the case, His Lordship Sir Henry Duke granted a decree, to be complied with within 14 days. This was clarified in the Daily Mail: ‘A decree for the restitution of conjugal rights to be obeyed by her husband, Roderick Locke, within 14 days.’ Locke died at his home, 154 Woodlands Road, Hillary, Durban, on 26 August 1946. Remaining married to Eleonore, she later made a claim for a widow’s pension.

An interesting Victory Medal awarded to Sapper D. H. Gibson, Royal Engineers, who served as a Tunneller with No. 176 Company and was likely involved in the construction of the extensive gallery network at Vimy Ridge Gibson returned home to Nottinghamshire only to have a ‘marvellous escape’ when caught by a violent thunderstorm one evening as he walked back from the local mine – his accompanying friend died on the spot after been burned from ‘the chin to the sole of his foot’ by a lightning bolt Victory Medal 1914-19 (158361 Spr. D. H. Gibson. R.E.) nearly extremely fine £40-£50 --- David Henry Gibson was born at Newthorpe Common, Nottinghamshire, around 1887, and worked as a coal miner in the local pits. He attested for the Royal Engineers at Hucknall on 2 February 1916, his service papers stating him taking lodgings around that time at Hampden Street, Giltbrook, Nottinghamshire. Posted to France, Gibson joined No. 176 Company on 1 July 1916 and appears to have spent approximately two years as a tunneller. Conditions became so bad underground and in the trenches on the Western Front that he reported to the 59th Field Ambulance in July 1918 suffering from mosquito bites; transferred to No. 4 General Hospital at Camiers, the state of his thighs was such as to necessitate evacuation home to Chester War Hospital to recover for 17 days. As the War neared its weary end, Gibson was posted to a Tunnelling Depot Company at Crowborough before being finally demobilised. He then returned home to Nottinghamshire and his former life as a collier. An article which was published on page 7 of the South Notts Echo on 19 June 1920 notes the following episode: ‘Killed in a Field Newthorpe Common Miner’s Tragic End A violent thunderstorm broke over Eastwood and district between 10.30 and 11 o’clock on Saturday night, causing the death of a Newthorpe Common miner named Thomas Bates, aged 39, who leaves a widow and six children. The deceased’s companion, a miner named David Henry Gibson of Hempden Street, Newthorpe Common, had a marvellous escape, being stunned by the lightning and rendered prostrate. Gibson states that he was in company with Bates from 7.45 p.m., and they were returning home from Newthorpe about 10.30 across the fields. He had just got over a stile and his companion was following when there was a vivid flash of lightning and he remembered no more. It afterwards transpired that Gibson, lying in an unconscious state for half-an-hour, had sufficiently recovered to call for help, and a man named Harry Goodin, a miner, of New Eastwood, who was passing on the main road, heard the shout and went to their assistance, finding Gibson still in a dazed condition and his companion dead. P.C. Hindley, who received information and went to the scene of midnight, states that the deceased, who burned from the chin to the sole of his foot, the fluid passing from the chest down the left side, where it burned a hole in the outer-case of his silver watch, also breaking and charring the watch chain. The watch had stopped at four minutes to 11. The lightning also dislocated one of the overhead wires on the Notts. and Derbyshire tramways at Giltbrook, and the late cars returning from Nottingham were held up until the early hours of Sunday morning, many passengers for Eastwood and Heanor having to complete their journey on foot.’

BALVENIE 1966 SINGLE CASK #4288 SPEYSIDE SINGLE MALT Distilled: 09/04/1966Bottled: 02/06/199844.6% ABV / 70cl Balvenie is part of the Grant’s family and sits beside its sister distilleries, Glenfiddich and Kininvie, in the Speyside burgh of Dufftown. Established in 1892, just a few years after Glenfiddich, Balvenie has spent its life supplying the heart of the Grant’s blend. In fact, it wasn’t until nearly 100 years later, when Kininvie was built, that it was able to seriously market its own single malt.One of very few distilleries to retain its own malting floor, Balvenie is slightly unusual for a modern Speyside whisky in that it still uses a small percentage of peated malt to make its spirit. While the new make it produces is far from smoky, this small amount of peat gives it a distinctive character that has helped it become one of the best-selling malt whiskies in the world.
