Summary
Pathe synopsis: Constable Harry Ward, who is PC 63 in the Sussex Police Force, has probably the biggest "beat" in Britsin - it covers nearly 5,000 acres of Sussesx Downs. But fortunately he does not have to do it on foot - his "assistant" being twelve-year-old mare Princess Pat. As his territory includes the notorious Beachy Head, one of his duties is to keep a look-out for over-adventurous holiday makers.
