Going back to the starting point of this thread, the "Daily Telegraph" also commemorates John Young.
He died on Sunday, only a few days before brewing is due to stop at Wandsworth. He was indeed a Northern River Pirate in 1938-9, and I put an item here about that some six weeks ago.
The "DT" gives him a major obituary in the main paper and another article in the Business section, and also a picture gallery of some of his activities.
I was at the AGM when he wore the beekeeper's hat.
