J. H. Squire
J. H. Squire has been known to listeners since the early days of broadcasting as the leader of the record-breaking Celeste Octet. Before he became a musician, however, he seems to have had a singularly eventful career. Readers of his recently - published autobiography, ' ... And Master of None', will remember that he went to sea when little more than a child, and after various adventures found himself enlisted as a trumpeter on one side or the other in a South 'American revolution (he was never sure which side). The consequence was the adventure that he will recount today.

A short story written for broadcasting by L. A. G. Strong and read by the author

Though born in Devon, he is almost an Irishmanhis father is half Irish, his mother wholly so-and as a boy he used to spend two months every summer with his grandparents in Glasthule, Co. Dublin. I used to penetrate the poorest hovels, ride in the Wicklow Mountains, and fish for conger eels ', he says. And the fruit of all this experience will be found in the novel, The Garden ', and in many short storie;, of which Clonbocketty ' is one of the most amusing.
