Of England After Bombing Raids

Many in Hongkong will remember Mr. Bernard Petheram. former News Editor of the South China Morning Post and Kowloon cricketer. Mr. Petheram returned to England ten years ago and is now at Etlee, Blakeney, Gloucestershire. In the following descriptive sketch he gives his impressions of a bombing in the country.
