Looking at the people in my grandfather's life in the early 1900's through his Edwardian post card collection.

The Gaol, Lewes
John had been to a fair in September. Another event in Brighton in September 1905:
"National Speed Trials. This historic Brighton seafront event has been running since 1905. The event on the first Saturday of September this year allowing spectators to watch over 200 cars and motorcycles travel along Madeira Drive racing against the clock. The organisers are Brighton & Hove Motor Club."
During WW2 two of John's relatives were Conscientious Objectors and were imprisoned in Lewes Gaol because of their belief.
September 26th 1905 was a Tuesday.
