Uncle Will of Hartwells.

An engineer. Built the most magnificent steam railway engine models - that could pull twenty adults along on a track - but, that is an aside, the engineering was of the highest quality that I have seen in my life.
Gentleman - smoked a pipe - water colours of the New Forest that would shame most modern day painters.
Doctor also - when I was six had a piece of glass in my eye - no NHS then. Will travelled one hindred and sixty miles and removed it with his hanky- thanks Will, and God bless you, I see you still.
David
