SCENE OF A MURDER.
MORBID HOLIDAY » MAKERS.
EASTBOURNE BUNGALOW TRIPS.
A. and N.Z.
LONDON. July 27.
Thousands of holiday-makers at Eastbourne went on motor charabanc trips to the bungalow where Emily Kaye was murdered. They paid a shilling per head admission, of which tho Government grimly received twopence as " entertainment tax." The remainder was shared between the owner and a neighbour, who acted as guide.
Tie surroundings of the bungalow became like a fair, with ice-cream stalls, etc.
The owner at first said that he was forced to admit the public, as hundreds surrounded the place and threatened to break in unless he did. He said be intended making grants to charities out of the receipts.
The owner has, however, now decided not to admit any more sightseers..
