Arthur Marson accident



 Article from Northern Advocate 31st May 1937 - page 5. Arthur Henry Marson was born in 1902 and was the son of Thomas William Marson and Clara Elizabeth Marson. He had 9 siblings; Sidney, William, Rhoda, Alfred, Mary, Clara, Eliza, Percy and David.

I have to wonder based on similar accidents and events from today whether alcohol was involved.
