My husband thinks he remembers Mr Hilton as the lollipop man who stood near the pub at the front of Varty's Darville when he went to Ince Central Infants School, it's brought back happy memories of the kindness showed to him by this man, he kept little packets of biscuits to give to the children. However he does wonder if he got biscuits because he was such an urchin, maybe Mr Hilton felt sorry for him and all his brothers, whatever the reason it's a kindness that's stayed with him :)
