Harrogate Herald - 6th June 1917

W H Breare letter

Soon after the last named left me in came G A Enderby, son of Mr and Mrs Enderby. The father, you know, has the garage of the Grand Hotel, now the Officers' Convalescent Home. He is attached to the Naval Air Service, and is a mechanic at one of the repair depots out in France. He came home Monday before last, and returned yesterday. He has not had leave since last Whitsuntide. Enderby told me of rather a singular incident. A Leeds boy met him and asked him if he knew Frank Sharman, of the West Yorks. Almost immediately after he received his Herald, and on opening it saw with sorrow Frank Sharman had been killed. I should say Enderby is a very clever mechanic. He looks well, and is happy and content in his work.

You will remember Mr Harold Fortune, solicitor, son of Mr Charles Fortune, JP? He is in the Army now, but in just what capacity I do not know. He called to see me the other day, but unfortunately I was not visible. I understand from one of my people who saw him that with him is Odam, who used to be at Aston's, the stockbroker; a man named Lee, and Enderby, son of Mr Enderby, of the Grand garage.
