THE SANDGATE COWBOY

We had this lovely photograph and information about the Sandgate Cowboy sent to us by Mary a relative of his. His name was Samuel Warden but he was also known as ‘Dixie’ and ‘The Sandgate Cowboy’ He lived in an old slaughter house we think in Gough Road; that was where he must have worked and also lived during the 1930’s He apparently carried out his daily work dressed as a cowboy hence the name. He must have done well as he drove this lovely car and was never short of lady friends! Ste AE. Sassoon HAD Mouse 1 a Oa i SHoRWCLIPFE +ODGE HE Ran git Fron Cawiss of chickeSTER.

THE MUCH-LOVED FRITZ EWER

Dr Fritz Ewer, who died recently two weeks before his 100th birthday, was a much-loved GP in Sandgate for many years - he did not fully retire until he was 80 - and was delighted to be asked to unveil the Society’s Millenium plaque on the wall behind the war memorial eight years ago. Although he was born into a German- Jewish family in Berlin (his father was a doctor) Fritz spent much of his life in the Folkestone area, starting work as a junior resident officer at the Royal Victoria Hotel in July 1935 at a salary of £25 a month with free board and lodging and laundry. He celebrated his appointment with an expensive lunch at the Metropole Hotel, sitting next to a table occupied by ex-Prime Minister David Lloyd George.

At kindergarten in Berlin one of his friends was Horst Wessel, later to become the notorious Nazi after whom their marching song was named. Fritz had early warning of what was to come when made to leave the scout movement because of his Jewish origins. Having qualified at Berlin University in 1930 he came to England when Jewish doctors were dismissed from German hospitals just as he was ready to start work. So he did postgraduate study at Edinburgh University, completed his training at Folkestone and got a job in a mining village near Doncaster until he was able to start his own practice in a bungalow in Downs Road, Folkestone. German refugees helped to build up his practice. They included his father and mother who fled here with the family Steinway piano, which Fritz enjoyed playing for the rest of his life. (‘Bach is for weekdays, Mozart for Sundays’)

Fritz’s practice, which included lots of child evacuees sent to Folkestone in the mistaken belief that it would be a safe area, was abrupty interrupted when he was interned in the Isle of Man and then sent to Canada as an enemy alien. But he and his father resumed practice in the Folkestone area in 1947, and Linda Rene-Martin recalls that when the family took a walk along the Leas so many people greeted them that his young. daughter hought they must have delivered half the district’s babies. mn WH AE Fritz retired from full-time work at 70, but was then asked by the late Dr Courtney Lendon for help with his Sandgate practice. They worked together until Dr Lendon retired nine years later, but Fritz continued with locum work until he was 82 - which is not permitted now! He was a hardy swimmer in the sea off Sandgate beach, and walked the local paths until well into his 90s. He died at the family home in Military Hill, Sandgate, and is survived by Peggy, his wife of 65 years. Both were active members of the Sandgate Society for many years.

The new Trustees of the Chichester Memorial Hall moved another step closer to realising their dream when the Sandgate Parish Council voting in favour of a £5,000 emergency grant so that the building could be made watertight before the onslaught of winter. Roger Joyce Associates

A Fynmore Tribute by Linda René-Martin

The name Fynmore carries a great significance in the annals of Sandgate life and history. A beauti- ful stained glass window in the south aisle of St Pauls and the fine chain of office (1902) worn by the Sandgate Parish Chairman are part of their legacy. As we know Lt Col. P. J. Fynmore was twelve times Chairman of the Local Board of Health and after reform of Local Government (1894) a Chairman of the Sandgate Urban District Council.

Now we are sad to learn that his grandson, Peter Fynmore, has recently died at Bexhill aged 84. Though distant, he remained a loyal friend to Sandgate

Peter was guest of honour when I set up a mini-banquet in the since beautifully restored Old Reading Room in the unique Old Fire Station, which at times, served as the Council Chamber. An auspicious cele- bration in June 1984, it marked the c of the building of the premises which housed the Fire Engine manned by volunteers (see Kent Life, October 1983). With us, Peter celebrated the victory of the Sandgate Heritage Trust Limited led by a group of people (notably Hilda and Alan Fisk and myself as the first chair- man and maid of all work) to buy and preserve the historic landmark and secure it as the headquarters of the Sandgate Society, when Kent County Council were intent on sellir

After service in India, Peter qualified as a solicitor. Described as ‘virtuous, amiable and discreet, he be- came President of the Hastings and District Law Society. His brief letter posted on the Sandgate Society’s noticeboard plainly states that the village never had a Mayor, dispelling all myth.

At various times, members of the Fynmore family lived at Hayes Barton, later known as By the Sea on the High Street. Family names are visible in the graveyard of St Martin’s on Horn Street. lhe Fynmore Scrapbooks, as many know, are an invaluable and dependable mine of information on wide- ranging aspects of Sandgate life and history. My own momento is a concise histoty of Sandgate Castle 2d) written by Pete ndfather a copy of which, in 1974, he inscribed to my late husband Jack.

Sandgate has cause to remember you, Peter and your forbears with gratitude for their wisdom and good works.

THE H G WELLS FESTIVAL 2010

Following last year’s successful H G Wells Festival, built around the annual £1000 short story competition funded by a bequest to The Sandgate Society, planning has started for the next one - provisionally dated Saturday & Sunday, September 18 & 19. Last year’s festival featured Wells’ novel The Sea Lady; this year his delightful novel featuring Kipps, which also has a local background, has been chosen. Neville Pundole hopes the subject will appeal to local artists and Reg Turnill will shortly be announcing conditions for this year’s 5000 word short story competition.

As always, funding is the main problem. Last year’s inaugural Festival was estimated to cost about £7000, but personal donations, especially in time, and generous facilities at The Grand enabled it to be held at about £2000. This was met by grants from local authorities and the Roger de Haan Foundation, following applications by the late Mary Mather. It is certain to cost more this year, but thanks to a late grant from KCC the Festival Fund should start with a credit of about £1000!

Committee members Liz Joyce and Sandie Barker are already working hard on the project, but would welcome additional support. 10
