Six reminiscent talks by The Earl of Lytton, O.B.E.
2— 'The Lion and the Unicorn '
This talk is about camp and station life in the deserts of Northern Kenya, where Lord Lytton served as a young man of twenty-two. The lion was a very little lion, and the unicorn was not a unicorn. This is pardonable since the talk is really concerned with human beings; those, fierce and gentle, white and black, who lived and worked in the desert outposts, keeping-with some difficulty -the King's Peace.

8'The Sea Captain '
Produced by James Crampsey
At last young Darsie Latimer has learned from his mysterious * protector,' the Laird of the Solway Lochs-alias Mr. Herries of Birrenswork, the attainted Jacobite, alias Redgauntlet-that he himself is of that last-named family and bears on his forehead the horseshoe mark that distinguishes all the male members of the family.
In company with Lilians, the girl in the green mantle, and in custody of the villainous Cristal Nixon, he is forced by Redgauntlet to ride off to a destination unknown to him and with an iron mask upon his face.
Meanwhile his friend, Alan Fairford, hearing of the kidnapping, has left Edinburgh to hurry to Latimer's rescue, pursued by his first law-client, Poor Peter Peebles. In Dumfries Alan learns some of the historical background to his friend's mysterious predicament. From Mi. Maxwell of Summertrees he carries a message to Redgauntlet at Tom Trumbull's Inn at Annan.
