Ilford Hospital Carnival

Park Ward's prize-winning trade car 'Ye Olde English Wedding' was entered into the carnival by Ernest Frank Hart, a jobmaster who rented out horses and carriages at his livery stable in Ilford Lane. During the event a silver horseshoe went missing from the Bride's carriage. A newspaper advert promised a liberal reward for its return. Whether it was recovered is unknown.
