[Smalley was injured in a car accident on March 1, 1939 when his car (#652) which he was driving came into collision with another car (#4420) at the corner of Waterloo Road and Argyle Street. Smalley and a woman passenger in the other car were removed to the Kowloon Hospital (of which Smalley was in charge); the condition of both patients, as it was learned later that night, was not serious.]
[Smalley's residence in Mody Road was broken into by a thief on May 7, 1940, who took away a chromium clock, valued at $50.]
[There was a decorated (Distinguished Flying Cross July 30,1940) Royal Air Force pilot existing in the European Theatre of World War II, whose name was James Ralph Thornton Smalley. Might he be Smalley's son?]
[1] Smalley was the first medical officer in charge of the Kowloon Hospital, which opened on Christmas Eve 1925.
