HEIR TO MILLION
AWAITS 2/- A DAY CALL RHYL, April 1. Mr. Brian Hervey Talbot, 24-year-old heir to a million pounds, expects to become a 2s-a-day airman this week. He is one of the 250,000 men, 23 at the end of last year, who registered on February 17. When he leaves his flat in Marine drive, facing Rhyl Promenade, his young brunette wife, excinema attendant, will keep the homegoing. When he was 16 Mr. Talbot was left the residue of the £838,000 estate of his great-uncle, Lord Wavertree, to accumulate for him for 21 years. By the time he is 37 it is expected the trust will amount to £1,000,000. Mr. Talbot’s father was the late Lieut.-Colonel Talbot. His wife’s father was a regimental sergeantmajor in the last war.
