'This man was seen by PSW - seemed simple and almost childish, very talkative about himself. Was 17 years in one job then developed heart trouble, cannot do anything heavy. Was a paid fire watcher for a time, now a cleaner. Takes drops at night for his heart. [Male informant] confirms - he is queer and soft, not 100%. He lives alone in a little wooden hut.'
