Image description

On the back of this photograph John James Frowde writes, "In my boyhood days, our house 'looked' down the lane behind Auckland Terrace, now the N side of Windsor Road. No 6 Auckland Terace was Parson Cannell's residence. If he was not then 'on live' [line?], his wife was. On the light summer nights we used to watch for Mr Smaggs' arrival. He would waddle down the lane, abstract from his coat pocket some gravel & throw it up against the first floor window of the outlet. Almost immediately, he would seem to dissolve into the wall. Mrs Cannell's cook was a comely middle-aged woman, and wore her black hair done up in ringlets that clustered around her head. Many fair ones affected this coiffure at this time. x Mrs Allen, (Mylrea & Allen, Duke St) & Mrs Cain, Post Office at end of Athol St., P. Hill end: mother of 'Jerpy' & 'Fatty' at Grammar School with me. I have mentioned earlier, that Fred. Smagg was a thrifty man. Youngsters though we were, we were well aware of that & concluded that the element of Romance was missing, and that Smagg's objective was a 'cheap feed'. 'Fatty' was Frank in private life I think, & in later years was a successful 'hotelier' at Ambleside. Of 'Jerpey', I know nothing after the Grammar School days, nor do I know his actual prenomen. There was also a daughter Ethel, usually among the crowd at the P. School entrance in Dalton St., when Sergt. Lewin, of Onchan Post Ofice, and a Crimean Veteran I believe, wouold be drilling us in the School playground."
