The 4.15 from Victoria to Lewes had been held up at Three Bridges
in consequence of a derailment and, though John Lexman was
fortunate enough to catch a belated connection to Beston Tracey,
the wagonette which was the sole communication between the village
and the outside world had gone. "If you can wait half an hour, Mr.
Lexman," said the station-master, "I will telephone up to the
village and get Briggs to come down for you." John Lexman looked
out upon the dripping landscape and shrugged his shoulders. "I'll
walk," he said shortly and, leaving his bag in the station-master's
care and buttoning his mackintosh to his chin, he stepped forth
resolutely into the rain to negotiate the two miles which separated
the tiny railway station from Little Tracey.
