LINDLEY BROTHERS IN COLLISION
Marsh Boy Also Injured
Two young Lindley brothers, one an officer in the R.A.F., the other serving in the Navy, were injured this morning when the motor-cycle on which they were riding down Wesbourne Road, Marsh, came into collision with a motor-van at the junction of Westbourne Road and Eldon Road.
They were Flying-Officer Jack Warner (21) and Geoffrey Warner (18), both of 11, Plover Road. Jack Warner received a broken leg and a dislocated shoulder and his brother concussion.
Also involved in the accident was an eleven-year-old Marsh boy, John Sawyer, of 3, St. James’s Road, who is understood to have been walking near by at the time of the collision. The boy received concussion and abrasions.

Dear Sir,
The Council of The Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund have learnt with much regret that your son is reported missing, and I am asked to express their very sincere sympathy.
I am to inform you that if your missing son was making you a voluntary allotment from his Royal Air Force pay, you will be entitled to continue cashing the orders in your Royal Air Force order book for a period. If, however, you do not receive a communication from the Air Ministry regarding your title to a temporary allowance within three weeks from the date of this letter you should communicate direct with the Director of Accounts, Air Ministry, (Accounts 7K. Cas)., Whittington Road, Worcester. If your son had not made you a voluntary allotment but was making you regular payments for your support through unofficial channels, you should inform the Director of Accounts to this effect without delay.
Should you be in need of some financial assistance either now or at any time in the future, kindly let me know and I will arrange for our Representative to interview you at the earliest opportunity.
Yours truly,
[signature]
Squadron Leader,
Joint Secretary.

Dear Joan,
Thank you very much for your letter, & I’m sure you must be pleased to know just where Bob is. I must tell you straight away that I know a boy who is at the same camp, so perhaps you may mention him to Bob when you write, as although the camp holds thousands, he may be able to come across him if he asks. This name is Douglas Bowie (Flying Officer) & he is an Observer. He has been there a year now & I believe is quite settled & takes classes in Engineering, & takes a good part in Discussions etc. He is a grand fellow, & worked in
[page break]
the Electrical & Controls Drawing Office at “Hops” & knows Ernest, Jack Barker & me (of course) & he was a very clever boy. His widowed mother works at Hops too & his brother (there were only 2 boys) was killed in training in Canada. He had just passed as a pilot. His mother is a great friend of mine as a matter of fact she is going with Mother & I to Blackpool at Xmas. She has been wonderful to me, knowing what it is like, with 1 boy killed & the other prisoner-of-war. She says she’ll write Dougie & tell him to look out for Bob (although I must say, she thinks they’ll be home before they receive the letters – but she’ll still write just in case) She hasn’t heard from Dougie for a long time now, as letters don’t seem to
[page break]
2.
be coming through so well now.
You say some of the patterns have come – would you mind sending them on – as I’ve a dress & a skirt to make & I’m needing a pattern, so perhaps I could be using them.
Mother, Jack & I were glad to hear you liked your handbag, & your Mother is pleased with [inserted] her [/inserted] shopping bag, & tell your Mum that Jimmy will try & make her a little purse. Give her my love & I hope her holiday did her good.
Mother says I’ve to tell you we got in all right at Blackpool, at what seems to be a very nice hotel, on the new part of the South Shore. We had a job to get in, as
[page break]
half the places are full, & the other half aren’t opening. It is the first time I’ve been away at Xmas, but I don’t feel as if I can face this one at home, & also it will do Mother good as she hasn’t been away for about 7 or 8 yrs.
I don’t know whether I told you that we sent for the puppy mascot that Ernest’s crew had; & his Mother has it, but she’s had to go down to London to her sister who is ill, so for a week or two, we’ve got him at home. He’s about the size of a spaniel (black & white) but has a terrier’s head & altogether, to me, he’s like a very small sheepdog – He’s only 7 mnths old yet & is a grand little chap, but takes some looking after.
[page break]
3.
We gave him his first bath today & so now he’s all fluffy & looks grand.
Well, Joan, everyone here is fairly well at present. Dad has pulled a ligament in his leg & is hobbling about, but it is mending. Mother is fairly well, also Jack. I am feeling much better, but wish I knew something definite & could settle my mind a bit. I ought to have learned my lesson in patience when I do hear, as it is 6 months now since he was missing, & still no definite news of him.
Well Joan, I’ll finish by saying I’m very pleased Bob turned up safe & well, & he’ll be coming back to you someday, & hope you’re feeling better now,
All my love
Margaret.

My dear Joan,
I have just heard the news about Bob, & as I know what you’re going through, thought I’d drop you a line to say, you [underlined] must [/underlined] keep your chin up Joan, & trust in God to keep him safe. I know it is not much good people saying, ‘you must do this – or you must be brave’ – it’s jolly hard – but, I think if our boys & husbands are brave enough to tackle their jobs – four our sakes – then the least we can do, is take the bad news we often get, ‘on the chin’ & make them as proud of us, as we are of them.
You know Joan, Bob was a
[page break]
good pilot - & an experienced one – not like a young boy on his first trip - & if anything happens, - as it seemingly has – he would be calm, & therefore have much more chance of being safe.
It is now 3 months since Ernest went ‘missing’, & we haven’t heard any more yet, but I’m very confident he’ll be alright – after all no news [deleted] if [/deleted] is good news – so Joan, you see you’ve to expect waiting a long time, & goodness knows it is very hard – but after a while – the first few weeks – time passes a little better, & you can think every day, is a day nearer to hearing he’s well & safe. Also, just think this Joan, however much you’re worrying – Bob will be worrying too, - wondering if you’re making yourself ill about it – so just let him be able

to hear you’ve been taking it well, & be proud of you – for you know Joan, however much you appear not to be worried – Bob will [underlined] know [/underlined] you are really, & will be pleased you’ve been able to carry on, with a bright face.
We’ve always said we were like sisters, haven’t we Joan, - well now we’re closer than ever, in our ‘waiting period’. All my love dear, & I should love to see you again, so if Mrs. Barber asks you to come back with her – which I think she will – please do, we can cheer each other up a bit. Oh, my Mother is just telling me, you don’t know Mrs. Barber’s coming – well seemingly she’s thinking about coming this next week, so if she does – don’t forget! Anyway you can come any time you want – you know that Joan - & a change will

Well, for now, goodbye Joan – give my love to your Mum & Dad - & keep smiling dear,
