Sir William Neville Abdy, 2nd baronet [creation
of 1850] and his wives |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Following Sir William's death, the following
article appeared in the Hobart 'Mercury' on |
|
|
|
|
15 September 1910:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'A
strange and grimly pathetic figure has passed from the world with the death
of Sir William |
|
|
|
Abdy, Bart. Here
.can be traced the failure of
the hereditary principle. The title is an old |
|
|
|
|
one and goes back to 1641 [although not in this
creation], but the line was broken in 1868 |
|
|
|
when the 7th holder died without children, at
the age of ninety. This Sir William Abdy had |
|
|
|
married,
sixty years previously, a beautiful Miss Wellesley, [illegitimate] daughter
of the |
|
|
|
|
victor of Waterloo's elder brother [i.e.
Marquess Wellesley]. The marriage led to a cause |
|
|
|
|
cιlθbre, and was dissolved by Act of
Parliament. Miss Wellesley subsequently married Lord |
|
|
|
Charles Bentinck, and, in due time, became
grandmother to the present Duke of Portland. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
Sir William Abdy who has just died belonged to another branch of the family
which had |
|
|
|
also
secured a baronetcy. He was no more fortunate in affairs of the heart than
the |
|
|
|
|
husband of Miss Wellesley had been. Born in
1844, and succeeding to the title in 1877, he |
|
|
|
was married for the first time in 1883. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir
William was interested in the famous Belt v. Lawes libel action, and was
fascinated by |
|
|
|
one
of the witnesses, a Mdlle. Marie Therese Petritzka. He secured an
introduction to this |
|
|
|
lady through Mr. Belt, and settled £20,000 upon
her on their marriage. [The libel action |
|
|
|
|
referred to occurred in 1882, when Richard
Claude Belt, a noted sculptor, sued Charles |
|
|
|
|
Lawes (later Sir Charles Lawes, 2nd baronet),
himself a sculptor, over articles allegedly |
|
|
|
|
written by Lawes which had appeared in 'Vanity
Fair' and elsewhere. For further information, |
|
|
|
see the note under the Lawes baronetcy.] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Three
years later Sir William prosecuted Belt for obtaining money under false
pretences, |
|
|
|
|
and the "sculptor" was convicted at
the Old Bailey. Sir William Abdy's story was that Belt |
|
|
|
|
told him that a lady named Morphy, who had been
a mistress of the Sultan, was anxious to |
|
|
|
find
a purchaser for some valuable jewels which her royal protector had given her.
Sir |
|
|
|
|
William paid £8,000 for a parcel of paste
jewels. After that, law suit followed law suit in |
|
|
|
|
quick succession. In 1892 the first Lady Abdy
sued her husband for divorce without success. |
|
|
|
In 1897 Sir William figured as co-respondent in
a notorious St. John's Wood [divorce] case. |
|
|
|
Soon after his second marriage [Marie Petritzka
had died in September 1902], he sued his |
|
|
|
wife
for a divorce, and won [he had married again in December 1902 and won the
divorce in |
|
|
|
1905]. Finally, in spite of the fact that he
was paralyzed as a result of an accident in the |
|
|
|
hunting field many years earlier, Sir William
married the present Lady Abdy [in Feb 1909]. He |
|
|
|
showered a pitiable wealth of presents upon
her. A country house near Dorking, a cheque |
|
|
|
for £5,000, two motor-cars, jewels galore,
horses and the like. The lady recently made a |
|
|
|
|
small sensation by falling out of an aeroplane
with Mr. Grahame White, and by offering a |
|
|
|
|
large sum (some say £50,000) for the
furtherance of of aviation in England.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This last reference regarding the third Lady
Abdy relates to an incident which occurred in |
|
|
|
|
June 1910, which was reported in 'The Times' on
20 June of that year:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'There
was keen competition to obtain the privilege of making the first passenger
flight with |
|
|
|
Mr.
C. Grahame-White at Brooklands on Saturday, but Lady Abdy, who secured the
right, |
|
|
|
was
not to be envied her experience, for, through the engine not working well,
both she |
|
|
|
|
and the airman were thrown to the ground,
though fortunately neither was hurt. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'
.After
Lady Abdy had taken her place in the aeroplane the machine was started, but |
|
|
|
|
it only rose a few feet in the air. The motor
was not firing properly, and it became evident |
|
|
|
that unless the engine would pick up the
machine would have to be brought to the ground. |
|
|
|
The airman described a half-circle, and they
had just cleared the River Wey, but had |
|
|
|
|
scarcely done so when the opposite bank was
struck and the machine was badly damaged. |
|
|
|
One of the blades of the propeller was broken
off, and the right fore plane was damaged.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One
must have a certain admiration for Lady Abdy's courage. Her flight came less
than 7 |
|
|
|
|
years after the Wright Brothers' supposed first
flight in December 1903. I say "supposed |
|
|
|
|
first flight" because, while I have no
doubt that this flight occurred, I have always felt |
|
|
|
|
that the flights made by the New Zealander
Richard Pearse pre-dated the Wright Brothers' |
|
|
|
flight
(although whether they were "controlled" flights is open to
question), and that he |
|
|
|
|
has never been given the credit he deserves. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In
March 1912, Lady Abdy was again in the headlines after she had given a man
named |
|
|
|
|
Clairmonte Arnot in charge after he allegedly
stole a diamond and pearl brooch belonging |
|
|
|
|
to her. After he was acquitted of the theft,
Arnot sued Lady Abdy for false imprisonment, |
|
|
|
to his cost. In the Court's judgment, Mr.
Justice Scrutton said "that in this case the |
|
|
|
|
defendant [Lady Abdy] gave the plaintiff
[Arnot] into custody on a charge of theft. At the |
|
|
|
Sessions the jury acquitted the plaintiff of
the theft. Thereupon the plaintiff brought an |
|
|
|
|
action for false imprisonment, not for
malicious prosecution, and that action was tried on |
|
|
|
|
two
days last week. His Lordship left to the jury the question whether the brooch
was |
|
|
|
|
stolen, and they found that it had not been
stolen. He further left to the jury the question |
|
|
|
of damages, and they returned a verdict for a
farthing damages. The interpretation to be |
|
|
|
|
put upon that finding was, he thought, that,
while they acquitted the plaintiff of theft, they |
|
|
|
considered his conduct was such as disentitled
him from recovering damages. People talked |
|
|
|
of a person leaving a Court without a stain
upon his character, and his Lordship supposed |
|
|
|
that a man who had been on two occasions
acquitted of theft was in that position, but |
|
|
|
|
his
Lordship had rarely seen a more contemptible person in the witness-box than
the |
|
|
|
|
plaintiff on his own showing, and he (the
Judge) took the same view as the jury as to |
|
|
|
|
damages. In these circumstances there would be
judgment for the plaintiff for one |
|
|
|
|
farthing, but without costs. ['The Times' 26

The Affleck baronetcy |

|

The obituary of Sir Frederick Affleck, 8th
baronet, which was published in 'The Times' on |
|
|
|
|
27 July 1939, reads:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
death of Sir Frederick Affleck, eighth baronet, is announced by a Reuter
message |
|
|
|
|
from Brisbane. He was a fruit grower. Born on
February 3, 1856, Frederick Danby James |
|
|
|
|
Affleck was the eldest son of the late Rev.
James Danby Affleck, third son of the fourth |
|
|
|
|
baronet. He succeeded his cousin in 1919. In
1904 he married Lily, daughter of Alfred |
|
|
|
|
Quarm Ross, and had two
sons, the elder being Mr. Frederick James
Siddartha Affleck, who |
|
|
|
was born in 1905.' (my emphasis) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Frederick James Siddartha Affleck, born 29
March 1905, is also shown as the heir to the |
|
|
|
|
baronetcy in the eighth baronet's entry in
"Who's Who." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On the face of it, therefore, there would seem
to be little doubt that Sir Frederick left male |
|
|
|
heirs,
apparently legitimate, who would normally be expected to inherit the
baronetcy, but |
|
|
|
the
title, on the the death of the eighth baronet, appears to have disappeared. I
can find |
|
|
|
no
trace of the baronetcy after 1939 - no entry ever appeared in "Who's
Who" which |
|
|
|
|
indicates that the title passed to a son, and
Colin Parry's "Index of Baronetage Creations" |
|
|
|
states
that the title became extinct in 1939. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Given that the Affleck family lived in
Queensland, I searched the Australian newspapers for |
|
|
|
mention of Frederick James Siddartha Affleck,
and found that he (and his younger brother) |
|
|
|
were
'wrong 'uns.' Four articles referring to them were published in the Melbourne
'Argus' |
|
|
|
|
between
1937 and 1939, as follows (all four articles refer to the events as having
occurred |
|
|

in Brisbane):- |

After
I posted my initial draft of this note on the pages of a newsgroup of which I
am a |
|
|
|
|
member, a fellow member advised me to have a
look at a book entitled "Sunshine and |
|
|
|
|
rainbows: the development of gay and lesbian
culture in Queensland" [Thanks, Richard!] |
|
|
|
|
This book was written by Professor Clive Moore
of the University of Queensland, and |
|
|
|
|
Professor Moore has kindly granted me
permission to quote the relevant section of his |
|
|
|
|
book in this note, as follows:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'
..Boggo
Road prison in Brisbane was Queensland's main jail for several decades. It
has |
|
|
|
|
housed many illustrious inmates, even the
occasional Knight of the realm, but probably |
|
|
|
|
only one Baronet, Sir Frederick James Siddartha
Affleck, 9th Baronet, of Dalham, County |
|
|
|
|
Suffolk, England. The 'camera blackmailers'
case, as it became known, rocked Brisbane |
|
|
|
|
in 1937, when a Brunswick Street apartment
building, still standing today, became infamous |
|
|
|
as a centre of a gay pornography and blackmail
racket. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
Honourable Sid Affleck first came to the attention of the Queensland police
in late |
|
|
|
|
1937 when he and his brother Dalham, with
Ernest Barker, were charged with conspiring to, |
|
|
|
and actually blackmailing John W. They had
threatened to accuse John W., a blond twenty- |
|
|
|
one year old shop assistant of Pennys Department Store in nearby
Fortitude Valley, of |
|
|
|
|
committing an act of gross indecency. One
evening in early September, Dalham Affleck met |
|
|
|
John W on his way to All Saints Church, luring
him back to his flat in the Avalon building |
|
|
|
|
in Brunswick Street 'to see some eastern
articles.' Once there, Dalham Affleck king-hit |
|
|
|
|
John W, knocking him out. The young man claimed
to have regained consciousness to find |
|
|
|
himself lying on a bed wearing only his
singlet, with the two Affleck brothers going through |
|
|
|
his
belongings. While their victim was unconscious, the Afflecks had photographed
him |
|
|
|
|
committing 'gross indecency,' presumably oral
sex, with Dalham Affleck. When the police |
|
|
|
|
raided the flat in November they found a camera
concealed in the wardrobe, focussed on |
|
|
|
|
the
bed, along with negatives and photos of other young men in similar positions.
In |
|
|
|
|
evidence
the Afflecks admitted running a club for 'jaded business men who desired to
come |
|
|
|
there
for a play-around and be photographed in the nude. We have never demanded
money |
|
|
|
from
any of them and I can call them to prove it.' During the Affleck's tenancy,
Flat G in the |
|
|
|
Avalon
building seems to have become a gay brothel, the brothers providing
themselves or |
|
|
|
other
young men for sexual services for well-to-do business men, and indulging in a
bit of |
|
|
|
blackmail on the side. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
Afflecks wanted to blackmail John W, suggesting that he steal money from his |
|
|
|
|
employers to pay them. A week after the
incident John W was so distressed that, in a state |
|
|
|
of nervous collapse, he had to consult his
doctor. This was because the Afflecks had |
|
|
|
|
visited him at work, attempting further
intimidation. John W, wisely, then told Pennys' |
|
|
|
|
manager
of the plot. The police became involved, providing John W with marked pound |
|
|
|
|
notes to give to the Afflecks. On 21 September
Detective 'Nobby' Clark went to the flat, |
|
|
|
|
finding Dalham Affleck and the marked notes.
Later, when his younger brother [sic - should |
|
|
|
be older brother] and Barker returned from the
movies, the detective took possession of a |
|
|
|
series of negatives 'of Brisbane residents in
indecent and revolting positions in the nude. |
|
|
|
|
And, with one lone exceptional female of the
species, the figures were all males.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Only
one of the negatives showed John W and Dalham Affleck, but Dalham featured in |
|
|
|
|
most of them. Mr. Justice Macrossan spoke to
the jury on the nature of the photo including |
|
|
|
John W, instructing them to place no stigma on
the young man's character, despite the |
|
|
|
|
Affleck's protestations that their young victim
led them on
John W was not available to |
|
|
|
give evidence in the November trial because he
had attempted to commit suicide by |
|
|
|
|
shooting himself on the day of the Court
proceedings. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Dalham
and Sid Affleck were each sentenced to four years' imprisonment with hard
labour. |
|
|
|
Barker, who developed the photographs, received
a suspended sentence of two years with |
|
|
|
hard labour. In 1939 their request for the
right of appeal to the Full Court was refused and |
|
|
|
they remained incarcerated in Boggo Road
Prison, where in July 1939 the Honourable Sid |
|
|
|
|
inherited his father's title. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Born
in the Brisbane suburb of Wynnum in 1905 and educated in Crow's Nest on the
Darling |
|
|
|
Downs where his parents had a farm, Sid Affleck
moved to Sydney in 1925. Soon involved |
|
|
|
in the criminal underworld, he was convicted of
breaking and entering houses and carrying |
|
|
|
an unlicensed gun. Declared an habitual
criminal in 1932 when he was sent to prison for |
|
|
|
|
another three years, he was released 'on
licence' in April 1937, returning to Brisbane. His |
|
|
|
|
brother Dalham also ran foul of the law in
Sydney, moving back to Brisbane where he |
|
|
|
|
established
a school of dramatic art, and wrote and produced several plays, including
radio |
|
|
|
plays.
The brothers also ran a florist's shop in the city. Dalham was described by
the |
|
|
|
|
Sunday Mail as a man of considerable talents, who, 'when in funds, was
one of the best- |
|
|
|
|
dressed and
smartest looking men to be seen in Queen Street.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Presumably
their return had something to do with the health of their
eighty-three-year-old |
|
|
|
father
Sir Frederick Danby James Affleck. The title dated back to the eighteenth
century |
|
|
|
but
most of the wealth and the family seat, Dalham Hall, had left the family
before Sid and |
|
|
|
Dalham's
father settled in Queensland. The Afflecks claim to have been defrauded of |
|
|
|
|
£400,000
by a crooked solicitor early in the twentieth century, which was always
brought |
|
|
|
up
by Sid Affleck to explain his antisocial ways. Sid's father had never
expected to inherit |
|
|
|
the title, but did so when his cousin died
childless in 1919. The 8th baronet had lived in |
|
|
|
|
Queensland since the 1880s
..in his later
years he lived at Dunwich on Stradbroke Island |
|
|
|
in Moreton Bay, then in old age moved to
another coastal area, Scarborough, in 1937, a |
|
|
|
|
pathetic, blind and poverty-stricken figure,
further humiliated by his sons' misdeeds in |
|
|
|
|
Brunswick Street. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
9th baronet and his brother were released from Boggo Road Prison in 1941 but
Sir Sid |
|
|
|
managed to return for another six months almost
immediately when he was apprehended |
|
|
|
|
for stealing a man's belongings from the
Salvation Army's Peoples' Palace in the city. His |
|
|
|
|
grieving mother was interviewed by Truth in December 1941, after
Sid had resumed his |
|
|
|
|
residence in prison. It is not often that a
mother has to confront having given birth to |
|
|
|
|
two criminals who turned to gay pornography and
prostitution for a living. She spoke of the |
|
|
|
'curse
of the Afflecks,' supposed to have been visited on the family over
generations. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'
.the
Affleck brothers disappear from view in 1941. The title is no longer current, |
|
|
|
|
indicating presumably that the 9th baronet
never married and that there were no cousins |
|
|
|
|
to whom it could pass. Today, the Avalon
apartments in Brunswick Street remain in good |
|
|
|
|
repair, the street-corner now a well-known
haunt for prostitutes, both male and female. |
|
|
|
|
One
cannot help thinking that if Sid and Dalham had still been living there they
would |
|
|
|
|
have had a hand in organising their activities.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I
understand that Siddartha Affleck died in 1975 and was buried at the Mt.
Gravatt |
|
|
|
|
Cemetery. I have no information on the date of
death of Dalham Affleck. If, as seems |
|
|
|
|
likely, given the proclivities of the two
brothers, neither of them ever married, the Affleck |
|
|
|
|
baronetcy appears to have become extinct in
either 1975, on the death of Siddartha, or |
|
|
|
|
later, if Dalham outlived his older brother. |

Sir John William Hamilton Anson, 2nd baronet |

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sir
John Anson, together with twelve other men, women and children, was killed in
a |
|
|
|
|
railway accident at Wigan on 2 August 1873. The
following summary of the accident is |
|
|
|
|
taken from contemporary newspapers and from
L.T.C. Rolt's fascinating book "Red for |
|
|
|
|
Danger: A History of Railway Accidents and
Railway Safety" (John Lane, London, 1955). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
train, commonly known as the 'Tourist Special,' left Euston for Scotland at 8
p.m. |
|
|
|
|
on the night of 2 August 1873. It was drawn by
two locomotives and by the time it |
|
|
|
|
left Crewe the train consisted of 25 carriages,
many of them coaches belonging to |
|
|
|
|
wealthy families, including a coach reserved
for Sir John Anson. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As the train was running through Wigan station
at about 1.20 a.m., the driver noticed |
|
|
|
|
that sparks were flying from the rear
carriages. Fearing that part of his train had become |
|
|
|
|
detached,
he applied his brakes, bringing the train to a gradual stop. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The down platform at Wigan was an island
platform, with a set of facing points leading |
|
|
|
|
to a loop around the back of the platform. The
first fifteen carriages had passed safely |
|
|
|
|
over these facing points, but the sixteenth
carriage, which was occupied by Lady |
|
|
|
|
Florence Leveson Gower and a companion, was
derailed, together with all carriages |
|
|
|
|
that
were travelling behind it. Some of the carriages had run up the ramp at the
end |
|
|
|
|
of the platform, including that which contained
Sir John Anson, which stood upon its |
|
|
|
|
roof
on the platform, with five bodies, including that of Sir John and his valet,
scattered |
|
|
|
|
around it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In all, thirteen passengers were killed and
thirty injured. At the subsequent public |
|
|
|
|
inquiry into the disaster, the facing points
were minutely examined, but no defect in |
|
|
|
|
them was ever established. Many surviving
passengers did, however, commented that |
|
|
|
|
they had been alarmed several times during
their journey about the speed of the train, |
|
|
|
|
which had caused the carriages to rock and
sway. The inquiry accepted that the |
|
|
|
|
train was probably travelling too fast, with
the result that one of the carriages had |
|
|
|
|
jumped the points, dragging all the other
carriages with it. No satisfactory explanation |
|
|
|
|
was, however, ever advanced, and the cause of
the Wigan crash remains a matter of |
|
|
|
|
speculation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In June 1875, the Anson family successfully
sued the London and North-Western Railway |
|
|
|
|
for compensation, but I have been unable to
find what damages were awarded to them. |

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
Sir Denis succeeded to the title in June 1914,
but he wasn't to enjoy it for long, since he |
|
|
|
|
drowned in the Thames a month later. |

tragic deaths of the young baronet, Sir Denis Anson and Mr. William Mitchell,
who were |
|
|
|
drowned in the Thames in the early hours of
last Friday morning [3 July], were, it seems, |
|
|
|
|
brought about by sheer folly born of natural
high spirits, stimulated by champagne. Sir Denis, |
|
|
|
who was only 26 [25] years of age, was the son
of the late Mr. Frederick Arthur Anson, of |
|
|
|
Piraki, New Zealand, and spent the early part
of his boyhood in New Zealand. He came to |
|
|
|
|
England
to be educated at Eton, and later went to Oxford University. He studied law,
and |
|
|
|
a short time ago was called to the bar, and
began practice in chambers in Mitre Court, |
|
|
|
|
Temple, in the same building where his uncle,
the late Sir William Anson, to whose baronetcy |
|
|
|
Sir Denis only succeeded about a month ago, had
chambers. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sir
Denis was the only son of his parents, and the youngest of a family of five.
At the time |
|
|
|
of the tragedy he was living in Half
Union-street with his mother and sister. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The
tragedy had its origin in one of the now fashionable "midnight
picnics" up the river. Sir |
|
|
|
Denis Anson was one of a party of 12 or 14
ladies and gentlemen who boarded a steam |
|
|
|
|
launch at Westminster Pier shortly after
midnight on Thursday. The party included Count |
|
|
|
|
Constantine Beckendorff, a son of the Russian
Ambassador, Miss Iris Tree, daughter of |
|
|
|
|
the famous actor [Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree],
the Hon. Kasper Ridley (brother of Viscount |
|
|
|
Ridley), Mr. Raymond Asquith (son of the Prime
Minister) and Lady Diana Manners, daughter |
|
|
|
of the Duke of Rutland, and there were also a
number of musicians on board to discourse |
|
|
|
|
sweet music during the trip. The party, it
appears, took supper whilst the launch was |
|
|
|
|
making its way up the river to Hampton Court,
and nothing untoward happened until the |
|
|
|
|
homeward journey was nearing completion. It
seems to have been a very merry party, and |
|
|
|
Sir Denis appears to have endeavoured to add to
the merriment by what schoolboys term |
|
|
|
"playing the goat" - climbing about
the superstructure of the launch and the like. Presently, |
|
|
|
when the launch was nearing Battersea Bridge
Sir Denis announced his intention of diving |
|
|
|
|
overboard, and climbed on to the bridge to do
so. Captain White, who was in charge of the |
|
|
|
launch, appears to have prevented him carrying
out his intention, and to have cautioned |
|
|
|
|
Sir Denis as to his conduct. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'What
actually happened thereafter has produced half a dozen stories, differing
materially |
|
|
|
in detail, but the main facts are clear. Sir
Denis was chaffed by some of his companions |
|
|
|
|
about his threat to dive overboard, and to
prove his courage took a header into the river. |
|
|
|
The ebb tide was running very fast at the time,
and the River Thames at this point is full |
|
|
|
|
of swirls and eddies, against which a strong
swimmer in nature's garb would find it almost |
|
|
|
|
useless
to struggle. For a man hampered by clothing - even light evening dress, minus
|
|
|
|
|
coat - it was courting disaster to do what Sir
Denis did, even if his swimming abilities were |
|
|
|
above
the ordinary. The unfortunate young fellow seems to have realised the fact
that he |
|
|
|
had over-estimated his powers very quickly, for
he called out something which those on the |
|
|
|
launch
who heard his cries took to be an indication that the baronet was in
difficulties. |
|
|
|
|
Bandsman
Mitchell was the first to act. Without waiting to remove his clothing he
plunged |
|
|
|
overboard
to the rescue. It was gallant madness, for, clothed was he was, Mitchell
could |
|
|
|
make no sort of fight against the fast running
tide, and was carried away. A few seconds |
|
|
|
|
after Mitchell's plunge there was another
splash, and Count Beckendorff had followed |
|
|
|
|
Mitchell's lead. But neither Mitchell nor the
Count had gone far before a strangled cry arose |
|
|
|
from Sir Denis, and a moment later the waters
had closed over his head. That was the last |
|
|
|
seen of the young baronet. Meanwhile the launch
had been stopped and put about, and a |
|
|
|
waterman, who had heard Sir Denis' cry of
distress, came upon the scene in a rowing boat. |
|
|
|
By
that tine, however, poor Mitchell had also disappeared, and Count Beckendorff
was in |
|
|
|
dire distress, when the waterman came to his
rescue and pulled him into the boat. The |
|
|
|
|
Count
was in an exhausted condition, and but for the timely arrival of the waterman
there |
|
|
|
would have been a triple tragedy. As it was,
two men lost their lives. The launch and the |
|
|
|
|
rowing-boat cruised about the place where Sir
Denis and Mitchell had disappeared for a |
|
|
|
|
long
time, but of the two poor fellows not a trace could be found. Mitchell's body
was |
|
|
|
|
washed up by the tide near Battersea Bridge on
Saturday morning, but several days elapsed |
|
|
|
before the mortal remains of Sir Denis Anson
were discovered lying beneath a raft of timbers |
|
|
|
near Lambeth Bridge, some three miles away from
the scene of the tragedy. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'At
the inquest a large amount of attention was paid to the question of Sir
Denis' sobriety. |
|
|
|
It
was admitted that the young baronet had partaken of wine, but it was
strenuously |
|
|
|
|
denied by every witness that he was inebriated
in any sense of the word. "He was merry and |
|
|
|
full of life," said the captain of the
launch, but was certainly not intoxicated, in the opinion |
|
|
|
of
the skipper. And that was the burden of all the witnesses' testimony. Sir
Denis was, as |
|
|
|
always, full of life and fun, and was the life
and soul of the party, but he had not had too |
|
|
|
much drink. So the jury found a verdict of
accidental death, and added thereto the rider that |
|
|
|
they found that Sir Denis was "quite
sober, but full of fun." |
