Minutes after leaving the newly-opened Croydon Airport, a technical fault caused him to crash- land in the back gardens of houses in nearby Wallington, narrowly missing a railway line. A newspaper at the time reported that among the six passengers were ‘two Americans and a press pho- tographer’, including film star Owen Moore, recently divorced from the actress Mary Pickford. No-one was hurt and all were evacuated safely thanks to Holmes’s quick thinking in releasing the escape hatches situated in the roof of the plane.

  • The London Guilds
    GUILDS AND RELATED ORGANISATIONS IN GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND A BIBLIOGRAPHY PART I INTRODUCTION THE LONDON GUILDS COMPILED BY TOM HOFFMAN © Tom Hoffman DRAFT 7 October 2011 PREFACE In 1960 William F. Kahl, then Associate Professor of History at Simmons College in the USA, published his Development of London Livery Companies - An Historical Essay and Select Bibliography. This is an attempt first to update his bibliography in the light of the many other works which have been published during the succeeding 50 years, and secondly to trace the development of the many guilds and related organisations in all the other cities and towns in England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland for, as Dr. Charles Gross wrote in The Gild Merchant published in 1896, “the history of English Gilds is yet to be written, though materials in abundance...are to be found in town archives and in printed local histories”. Of course Dr. Gross got this process underway in his Bibliography of British Municipal History, including Gilds and Parliamentary Representation published in 1915. I have set myself the task to find out to what degree Dr. Gross’s challenge has been met during the succeeding century. During the sixteenth century some of the larger cities such as Chester, London, Kingston-upon-Hull, Newcastle-upon-Tyne and York each had at least 40 guilds. I have been reading and collecting books on guilds since 1979. An asterisk “*” to the left of the author denotes that I have a copy, and a mark “#” to the left of the author denotes that I have a photocopy of the book or pamphlet.
