Hi Tim

Please excuse this inter-rupture , but being in possession of said book I extract this short taster



Jack Edward Ashton,   attended the same school as Keith Marsden, Peel Street Juniors

A man of vivid imagination

He played in the 1920 cup final for Huddersfield Town, but during half time was transfered to their opponents Aston Villa. With no score and time running out , Villa earned a late corner. Jack took it and kicked the ball high in the air giving him enough time to run into the goal area from where he scored with a header to win the game. !


And there's more, much more, then even some more.

So

Maybe buying the book 'Picking Sooty Blackberries' the songs of Keith Marsden, may come in useful for the GCSE course for which it is the recommended text book forthcoming English lit exams as will be sat by Harrow and Eton schools where Jack distributed prizes in the late thirties.
