Rushden Echo, 5th September 1924, transcribed by Kay Collins

The Employees of the Rushden Urban Council and their wives visited the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley on Saturday. The employees were given the day off, and a party of 44 started at 6a.m. in two charabancs supplied by Mr A Abbott. A halt was called at St Albans on the outward journey for a short time. The company divided at Wembley, and a very enjoyable time was spent.
