That obituary was, unfortunately, substantially plagiarised.Christopher Kreuzer wrote:Thanks for pointing out the obituary in The Times.Gordon Cadden wrote:A splendid Obituary Notice in yesterday's TIMES for Elaine Pritchard; 4 columns deep. C.D. Locock was her personal coach, and a friend of the family.
She was not fond of Alexander Alekhine, who sat in her rail compartment for an entire journey from London to Margate, without uttering a single word.
