  • Notes 
    • There was a picture of Richard Phillips, either a photograph or a painting, in the Elms. Mum remembers it. He was a handsome man, shown wearing a watch. It's present whereabouts is unknown.
    • Fell into a grave at Hereford, and found an object that looked like ivory dating from many years previous, which he kept. However, he had it expertly examined and it was found to be a recent Japanese object. He surmised that it must have been on the grass and fell into the grave with him. It remained at The Elms for many years, and went to Maxgate. Florence Elsie Mary Piper, subsequently gave it to Maidstone Museum. [23]
