this appears to be at odds with official records which show that she was born in Hackney on 13 July 1876 and baptised at St John's Church, Hackney on 12 November 1876, with the parish register describing her parents as William and Harriet Gambrill ) and a household servant named Nelly Dowland. The nature and status of Dawson's relationship to Ethel Gambrill (1877-1964) is a matter of conjecture but she was living with him up until he died (in the 1939 Register they are shown as living in the same household at 62 Warrior Square, Hastings) and she was named as his sole beneficiary in his will. In turn, records relating to Ethel Gambrill's estate show that John Delacourt Dawson was granted probate on 30 July 1964. The probate register entries for both Alec and Ethel give 3 Maze Hill Mansions, St Leonards-on-Sea, Hastings as their place of residence at the time of their respective deaths. Ethel Gambrill appears to have been known to Joseph Conrad as he passed on his "kindest regards" to her in a letter addressed to Ernest Dawson.

Mr Gandhi is in no single sense of the word a great man. But he has a great following, in a country where the prestige of a name sways millions; and allowance being made for his tendency toward megalomania, he is quite well-meaning." In light of Dawson's views on the unity of the British Empire, the tone of the article suggests that Dawson was not impressed by Gandhi's emerging role as an agitator for India's independence. 1674: 30: 230: 1693: 291:

This is probably Dawson's best-remembered and certainly his most frequently reprinted work: Finn, a champion Irish Wolfhound, is taken from England to Australia where he undergoes a series of adventures, being exhibited as a wild animal in a circus and escaping to live in the outback before eventually finding his old master and saving his life.
