30 December 1910 — Injured after defending the King
William Warren of Victoria Road, Chesterton, who was an old Volunteer, got into an argument in the Carpenter’s Arms after a man spoke disrespectfully of the King. He was knocked down and fell on a glass which penetrated his thigh, severing the artery. Now he has received a letter from Sandringham which reads: ‘The King regrets to hear that owing to your pluckily taking exception to disloyal language being used, you sustained deep cuts in the leg. His Majesty desires to be informed of your condition and hopes the injuries are not of a serious nature’.
