# Lendrum & Hartman

**Lendrum & Hartman Ltd** was a major London importer, the sole UK concessionaires of Buick and Cadillac cars from North America between 1919 and 1968. It became the most prestigious car dealership in the country, having sold a Buick in 1935 to the Prince of Wales, who became King Edward VIII the following year.

## History

Ernest Lendrum, a self-made successful businessman and Frederick Hartman, son of a wealthy Anglo-German industrialist, partner in Suter Hartmann, now a stockbroker invalided out of the Royal Naval Air Service met in 1917 at a City of London function, struck up a friendship realising a mutual interest in motor cars. They recognised the sales opportunities there would be after the First World War, particularly American cars, as the whole of British industry had been devoted to the war effort.
In May 1919 they travelled to New York to secure a deal with General Motors. Their initiative was successful. General Motors had already established itself in London at Long Acre but met with variable success over the years. The persuasive businessmen had secured a deal as non-franchised importers of top General Motors brands, Buick and Cadillac. In October Ernest registered the new company Lendrum Motors Ltd, using the address of Hartman's London flat at 26b Albemarle Street, London W 1.

### 1920s–1930s

In 1920, they acquired the General Motors old premises in Long Acre, and in 1921 moved to a better location in Mayfair, the recently vacated ground floor and basement premises of The Mellier building at 26b Albemarle Street. They renamed it ‘Buick House’. It would be the Lendrum & Hartman Mayfair showrooms for the next thirty years. The following year General Motors announced they were seeking to appoint another agent in London. Hartman again travelled to New York, and after a series of meetings at the General Motors Building (Manhattan) on Broadway won the business. With the result Ernest Lendrum made Hartman a full partner in January 1923 creating Lendrum & Hartman Ltd. By 1927 the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders announced that it had achieved 27,949 – the highest number of US imported cars to the UK. Confident that the business was developing well in the hands of Hartman, Lendrum took on the role of silent partner and resigned in 1931. The following year the company became Buick, Cadillac, and La Salle Concessionaires. The number of cars sold in 1932 was 150, by 1938 it would reach 2,000; the upper classes were now considering American cars as a credible alternative to Rolls-Royce, Bentley and Daimler
The 1920s and 1930s was a period of rapid growth for Lendrum & Hartman. Captain Hartman, (using his assumed war-time rank) was a consummate salesman and went out of his way to cultivate American executives like James D. Mooney, president of General Motors Overseas, and General Motors president Alfred P. Sloan. Hartman used the 1924 British Empire Exhibition at Wembley Park, officially opened by H.M. King George V, for social and business networking. General Motors of Canada Limited took the largest space in the Canadian Pavilion receiving a visit from the Prince of Wales. It was the largest exhibition ever staged anywhere in the world and had attracted twenty-seven million visitors.
By the early 1930s, the Buick brand in the UK had generally become accepted as representing one of the finest examples of transatlantic design in the field of medium-priced cars. The models exported to the UK came from Canada and were badged as McLaughlin Buicks for the British market and classified as being Empire-built.
In the summer of 1934, Lendrum and Hartman Limited was completely reorganised, with an increased share capital, and a new director was appointed, Hartman's wife (the former Lady Dalrymple), Mrs. Dorothea Mirabelle Cynthia Hartman.

### Post war

Ernest Lendrum died in 1938 aged 61, at his home, Moor Place, Pinkneys Green, near Maidenhead Berkshire. Four years later in 1942, ‘Captain’ Hartman died aged 58 at his home, Luckington Manor, Wiltshire. His wife, Dorothy Hartman (the former Lady Dalrymple) inherited the business and ran it successfully in the post-war years. It was announced at the 1952 Motor Show, *Another woman in the motoring news is Mrs Dorothy Hartman, head of a firm which distributes some leading American cars in Britain, who will be the only woman exhibitor at the Motor Show. To-night she gives a party to introduce a ‘Golden Anniversary’ Cadillac.*. She moved to Stumblehole Farm in Surrey in 1953, continued running the company from her flat in Berkeley House in Hay Hill, until her death in November 1957.

The company was bequeathed to a close family friend Guy Nicholas (Nick) Vansittart, then chairman of Vauxhall Motors. Nick sold it to the Lex Group in the early 1960s. Around that time Lex had bought the US franchise for Chevrolet and Oldsmobile by the acquisition of British and Colonial Motors in St Martins Lane. The Lendrum & Hartman concessions of Buick and Cadillac fitted well into their strategic plans.

By 1966 the showroom in Albemarle Street closed, and Lendrum & Hartman moved to Flood Street in Chelsea, just off the Kings Road. The 1960s saw new opportunities for American cars and under new ownership, Lendrum & Hartman achieved a high profile selling cars to the newly emerging celebrity market – film, television stars and pop stars – who preferred to be seen in an American car over any other type. It was the sign of success. Cars like Rover (marque) or Armstrong Siddeley were just not hip in sixties Britain.

The 1980s were not so kind and unfavourable legislation introduced earlier finally led to the company being dissolved and put into receivership in September 1990. The Lex Group was acquired by Aviva, a British multinational insurance company in 2005.

## Mayfair showroom

Albemarle Street, one of the most fashionable streets in Mayfair with many historic associations. Lord Byron, whose publisher John Murray was based at number 50, Oscar Wilde, a member of the Albemarle Club at number 13, the Rev. William Webb Ellis, the Anglican clergyman who invented rugby football, preached at St George's Chapel at number 27, demolished around 1903, and Anne Lister, Gentleman Jack a notable Victorian lesbian, stayed at number 29.

Lendrum Motors moved to Mayfair in 1921, taking the recently vacated ground floor and basement premises of The Mellier building at 26b Albemarle Street, opposite the Royal Institution at number 21. This fashionable and stylish showroom in the Beaux-Arts building was known originally as The Mellier, once the home and showroom of Charles Mellier & Co. Mellier was born in France and became a successful high quality cabinet maker and decorator, one of his most famous commissions had been for the liner, RMS Mauretania (1906). They renamed it ‘Buick House’ and from 1923 it remained the Lendrum & Hartman Mayfair showrooms for the next thirty years.

The showroom was closed in 1966, after the company was sold to the Lex Group, moving to Flood Street, off Kings Road, Chelsea, S.W.3. Today the Albemarle Street building renamed The Mellier again, has been transformed by architect Eric Parry from commercial use into apartments with spectacular penthouse.

## Willesden works - Old Oak Lane

In 1921, the company took a new lease on the facilities at Old Oak Lane in Willesden N.W.10, originally the Bedford Motors assembly plant, which became the ‘Buick Works’ for servicing and maintenance. It backed onto the Grand Union Canal.

From the very early days Lendrum & Hartman had specialised bodies built on Buick chassis. In the 1920s, the most popular were two-seater coupes with dickey seats, built by Page & Hunt of Farnborough, Surrey. It was one of these that the artist Augustus John had acquired in exchange for a picture. The limousines version was usually by Vanden Plas of Brussels. The chassis were shipped from the London docks and they returned finished to Harwich, several at a time, escorted by the Lendrum & Hartman Belgium representative.

Hartman recruited well, his choice of Merle Gates Armstrong from Noyes Buick in Boston in 1924, to run the London servicing operation, proved a success, assisted by Ted Taylor, his under-manager, who had previously been employed by General Motors, and a popular Canadian, Bob Berryman, headed the Reception Department. Hartman had initiated a new-car delivery service and Berryman's team was instructed to show anyone interested over the Buick Service Department without prior appointment, all innovative business practices at the time. By 1929 the Old Oak Lane in Willesden the service depot for Buick, Cadillac and La Salle cars was now covering 114,000-square-foot and employing over two-hundred personnel, with a wide range of skills on the premises. These included blacksmiths, welders, trimmers and upholsterers, machine shops, paint shops and a spare-parts department. This coordinated approach was a very unusual and advanced for the 1920s. By the 1930s the facility was handling over 12,000 cars a year.

When war was declared in 1939, the Old Oak Lane service complex was given over to military repairs. Just after the Dunkirk evacuations in 1940 Captain Hartman had seized the publicity opportunity of presenting General Charles de Gaulle with a Buick limousine on his arrival in England. Amongst the clients during the war included, Admiral Sir Max Horton VC, commander in chief Western Approaches, Exiled King Peter II of Yugoslavia, his mother Queen Maria of Yugoslavia, also purchased a L&H Buick, Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands, Władysław Sikorski, prime minister of the Polish Government in Exile, and the Russian ambassador, Ivan Maisky. With the arrival of the first American Forces in January 1942 the works were instructed to prepare a bullet-proof Cadillac for the use of General Dwight D. Eisenhower. This was done, using armour plate inside the doors, flooring, roof, as well as special Triplex glass and Dunlop tyres.

After the sale of Lendrum & Hartman in the 1960s the Old Oak Lane service depot, was closed and the spares and service was undertaken by the Lex Group at Kensington Place, Campden Hill Road, London N.W.8.

## Royal connection

Edward, Prince of Wales had visited Canada in 1927, and used a lavishly outfitted McLaughlin Buick, McLaughlin Motor Car Company that appears to have sparked his affection for the company's products.

In the summer of 1935, the Prince of Wales arrived unannounced at the Albemarle Street showrooms of Lendrum & Hartman and ordered a customized McLaughlin Buick, that would give two passengers luxury and privacy, specifications to include drinks cabinets, vanity mirrors, reading lights, correspondence facilities, radio, smoker's cabinet, jewellery cabinet, compartments for canteen and luncheon trays, and a drawer to accommodate London telephone directories.

Captain Hartman was called from a local hairdresser Truefitt & Hill in Bond Street, to personally attend to his Royal client. The works manager, Ted Taylor, was sent to visit the Prince at York House, St James's Palace to take instructions on the requirements of the client. Taylor was then sent to General Motors Canada, at Oshawa, in Ontario, to supervise the building of two cars ordered, one the main car, the other a back-up. The choice of these Buicks was said to have been made by Wallis Simpson. The car was delivered to the King at St James's Palace in February the following year. Fred Kirk who worked for Lendrum & Hartman was seconded to King Edward VIII as his private chauffeur when the King bought these customised Buicks. He drove Edward and Mrs Simpson throughout 1936 including the last visit to Windsor Castle to make his abdication speech. He accompanied the king to France in December 1936 before his exile in Paris.

The car with registration CUL 421, was sold at auction by Bonhams in London for more than £100,000 in 2007. It had clocked up 42,827 miles, and included many original fittings, including two silver gilt cigarette boxes, a silver jewellery box, six silver top decanters and two posy holders. It is said that the Foreign Office chose the number plate when the abdicated Edward went to France as in French the word "CUL" is slang for "arse". The documents include the original logbook, stating the first owner to be H.M. The King, St James's Palace, SW1, and an album of photographs of the car to the point when it was handed over to the King.

## Distinguished customers

Lendrum & Hartman, under Captain Hartman's direction, had become ‘the’ car dealership in England, boosted enormously by royal association.

By the early 1930s the Buick brand in the UK had generally become accepted as representing one of the finest examples of transatlantic design in the field of medium-priced cars. The models exported to the UK came from Canada and were badged as McLaughlin Buicks for the British market and classified as being Empire-built. Buick cars became the ‘must haves’ for leading business people, as well as theatricals and celebrities. Apart from the King Edward VIII (Duke of Windsor) and his American socialite friend Mrs Wallis Simpson, customers included:

## ‘Concours d'Elégance’

During the 1930s, Captain Hartman would ‘showcase’ his company cars by entering many of his personal Cadillacs in various Concours d'Elegance events at home and abroad where he won many premier awards. These cars were serviced and maintained by his works at Old Oak Lane, in Willesden. These events, essentially ‘beauty contests’ for automobiles flourished in Europe, particularly France during the interwar period, emerging in 1920s Paris in the Bois de Boulogne and resort cities like Le Touquet in the north and on the Riviera, and continued until the onset of the war. Organized by French newspapers L'Auto-Journal and L'Intransigeant and the journal Fémina, (Lady Diana Cooper once briefly edited the English edition in the twenties) the idea in the early days was to mix models in haute couture with a parade of various elegant cars, later actresses and celebrities took part. It continues as the Annual European Concours d’Elegance.

## London Motor Shows

The first British Motor Show organised by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) was held at Crystal Palace, London in 1903, the same year that the speed limit was raised from 14 miles per hour to 20 miles per hour by the Motor Car Act 1903. After the 1903 event it moved to Olympia in London, where it was held for the next 32 years before moving to Earl's Court Exhibition Centre, London from 1937 until 1976, except for the period of World War II during which time where were no shows.

The London Motor Show in 1955 took place at Earls Court in October. The same year General Motors announced from its Lendrum & Hartman stand, it had been the best year for Buick sales ever, with over 738,800 sold. One of the star exhibits was a display model of the Cadillac ‘La Espada’ -the only one built for exhibition purposes, a completely functional dream car built of fiberglass and gave promises of things to come, there was no price tag, but it was insured for thirty-five thousand dollars.

A selection of Lendrum & Hartman exhibition catalogue covers including: 1936, 1948, 1951, 1956, and 1957 are featured in Graces Guide

## Creative Advertising

Hartman was a salesman with a love of cars. He was a member of the Royal Automobile Club in Pall Mall, with its breathtaking Rotunda, used for displaying vintage cars.

* One of his early advertising stunts during the 1920s included a couple dancing the Charleston on the roof of a Buick saloon while it was being driven in London's Kingsway. (An original film clip of this event is used to introduce the P. G. Wodehouse BBC TV comedy series. The World of Wooster 1965–67).
* Another, to prove the durability of an L&H Buick, was driven up a long flight of stairs in the grounds of the Crystal Palace.

## Film associations

* 1920s, Huntley Film Archives John Huntley (film historian) Clip shows: London streets after the war (WW1). Crowds in the street. Long line of London omnibuses, many people. Well-dressed people at the horse races. People on a spinning fairground ride. Traffic (in Kingsway London) with couple dancing the Charleston on the roof of a L&H Buick car.

* In 1956, Diana Dors, majestically arrived at the Cannes Film Festival in her delicate pink L&H Cadillac convertible, given to her by Shepperton Studios; to promote the film Yield to the Night, the movie was nominated for the Palme d'Or.
* In 1960, Hell Is a City a British crime thriller starring Stanley Baker, features a L&H 1938 Buick Special side mounted sedan
* In 1971, a L&H Cadillac Fleetwood is used in various scenes, including entering the Gatehouse to Dryderdale Hall, in the iconic film Get Carter featuring Michael Caine (playing Jack Carter) with Ian Hendry (playing Eric Paice -the Cadillac chauffeur)

## General Motors Continental

Since the 1930s, the Hartman's at Lendrum & Hartman had developed a close business and social friendship with Guy Nicholas Vansittart (1893–1989) at General Motors Continental (became General Motors Europe in 1986). He was known as Nick within the company, distantly related to T.E. Lawrence and well connected politically (his brother was Robert Vansittart, 1st Baron Vansittart). He joined General Motors Continental in 1927, and became assistant managing director in March 1929. In July of the following year, he was promoted managing director of General Motors Continental. By 1937, Vansittart had been appointed regional director (for Northern Europe) responsible for General Motors Continental, covering Europe, Scandinavia and the Balkans, based in Antwerp Belgium.
In 1938, Nick was placed in charge of the H.Q. office of General Motors Limited in St. James's Square, London. He was near neighbour to the Hartman's and Stewart Menzies in the 1940s living in the Wiltshire village of Luckington. During the war he served with Special Operations Executive (SOE).
He was elected chairman of the board of Vauxhall Motors Limited in 1948. He inherited Lendrum & Hartman on the death of Mrs Dorothy Hartman in 1957, and retired from Vauxhall the following year.

# Pascal Dagnan-Bouveret

**Pascal-Adolphe-Jean Dagnan-Bouveret** (7 January 1852  3 July 1929) was a French painter, one of the leading members of the naturalist school.

## Biography

He was born in Paris, the son of a tailor, and was raised by his grandfather after his father emigrated to Brazil. Later he added his grandfather's name, Bouveret, to his own.

He became one of the leading French artists of the naturalist school and painted several paintings depicting Brittany. From 1869 he studied at the École des Beaux-Arts under Alexandre Cabanel and Jean-Léon Gérôme. From 1875 he exhibited at the Salon, where in 1880 he won the first-class medal for the painting "An Accident" and a medal of honour in 1885 for "Horses at the Watering Trough". From the 1880s Dagnan-Bouveret along with Gustave Courtois, maintained a studio in Neuilly-sur-Seine, a fashionable suburb of Paris. By that time he was recognized as a leading modern artist known for his peasant scenes, but also for his mystical-religious compositions. His large-scale painting "The Last Supper" was exhibited at the Salon de Champ-de-Mars in 1896. He was one of the first to use the then new medium of photography to bring greater realism to his paintings. In 1891 he was made an Officer of the Legion of Honour and in 1900 he became a member of the Institut de France. A number of his pictures were purchased by the British art collector George McCulloch, including The Madonna and Child 1880, Dans Le Foret, and a copy of La Cene (The Last Supper).

Dagnan-Bouveret was a close friend of the Finnish artist Albert Edelfelt. They met during their studies in Paris in the 1870s and were part of the artist circle around Jules Bastien-Lepage together with Gustave Courtois, among others.

# Li Wei-ling

**Li Wei-ling** (born 4 October 1965) is a radio talk show host in Hong Kong. Apart from her experience as a journalist in Ming Pao, Next Media and Commercial Radio, she contributes column articles to *AM730* and *Ming Pao*.

## Career

### *Ming Pao* career 1986 - 2001

Upon graduation in 1986, Li Wei-ling started her first journalist career in Ming Pao reporting about politics. Despite having no professional training, she possessed great news sense and made herself known in the industry very quickly by reporting many exclusive articles.

### *Next Media / Apple Daily* career 2001 - 2004

Li Wei-ling joined Next Media as Apple Daily's deputy managing editor.

### Commercial Radio Hong Kong career 2004 - 2014

Li joined Commercial Radio Hong Kong on 1 June 2004.

On 12 February 2014, CRHK announced immediate termination of the employment contract with Li. CRHK refused to comment on the termination of contract.

Li's office was forcibly cleared. During Li's hosting of talk radio on CRHK, her opinion always directed against the Hong Kong Government and the mainland China. While she was supported by the Hong Kong pan-democracy camp, her talk show was criticized by pro-establishment camp as "inadequate neutrality" and "extreme" opinion. On 13 February 2014, Li held a press conference telling her own feeling and claiming "the suppression of freedom of the press and freedom of speech by the CY Leung administration" was behind her dismissal.

While AFP was reporting the Committee to Protect Journalists report about the deterioration of the freedom of the press in Hong Kong, Li's dismissal was used as an example to confirm the concern about the status of the press freedom.

title: Lendonwood Gardens

abstract: Lendonwood Gardens are non-profit botanical gardens in Grove, Oklahoma. The 3-acre (1.2 ha) gardens were founded in 1995 by Dr. Leonard Miller, a retired dentist, and consist of a blend of American and Japanese gardening techniques. Major plantings took about 18 months to complete. In 1997 the Gardens became a non-profit organization and are now part of the Oklahoma Botanical Garden system.

# Totonicapán Uprising of 1820

The Totonicapán Uprising of 1820 was an uprising of indigenous Maya peoples (K'iche') against the Spanish Empire that occurred in Totonicapán, located in the western highlands of Guatemala. The revolt was in response to the excessive tribute demanded by the colonial authorities, and managed to establish a short lived breakaway state in Totonicapán with a free indigenous government. The rebellion was concurrent with the independence of Central America and other Latin American wars of independence.

## Background

Much of the colonial economy of New Spain was dependent on the exploitation of indigenous land and labor by the criollo and Spanish elite, this was especially true in colonial Guatemala where native Mayans and other indigenous people were imposed heavy tributes. In response to the heavy burden the natives faced, and seeking to create legitimacy for their new government, the Cadiz Constitution of 1812 was enacted by Napoleonic Spain which abolished these tributes as well as extending suffrage to all indigenous Americans living in the Spanish colonies. This constitution would be short lived however, and after the fall of Napoleonic Spain and reinstatement of King Ferdinand VII into power, the Cadiz Constitution would be abolished in 1814 along with all the agreements the constitution enacted. The constitution would be enacted again in 1820 due to mutinous efforts by the Spanish general Rafael del Riego. Though restored, the colonial authorities in Guatemala refused to enact it and continued to demand tribute from the indigenous. The Indigenous People of Totonicápan became aware of this and refused to make any payments. This refusal would lead to further unrest in the region.

## Rebellion

As a response to colonial demands for tribute and its refusal to enact the newly reinstated constitution, K'iche towns in Totonicapán rose up in opposition to the colonial government. The rebellion would begin by popular leaders organizing protests in the central plaza of Totonicapán and causing the mayor of that town to flee in fear of his life. Under the leadership of Atanasio Tzul, who according to popular legend, was declared king. A small struggle would ensue against the royal authorities in Guatemala. An autonomous state with a proper indigenous government was established in Totonicapán and lasted for 20 days.

The rebellion would later be put down by a *ladino* militia of approximately one thousand men from Quetzaltenango, Salcajá and San Carlos Sija. This force was led by the Spanish *Corregidor* of that region, Prudencio Cózar, who was tasked and authorized to use military force to extract payment. A series of small skirmishes occurred between both sides but Tzul's poorly trained Indian troops would prove an ineffective force against Cózar's army. The conflict would be short lived and Tzul, along with other indigenous leaders, would surrender and later be imprisoned. Tzul and other leaders would be pardoned the following year due to the inability of the state to process any charges of sedition against the Spanish government, due to the ongoing independence movement .

# Pascal Cygan

**Pascal Cygan** (born 29 April 1974) is a French former footballer. His favoured position was central defender, but he could also play as a left back.

After starting out at Lille in his country, Cygan would play four years in the Premier League with Arsenal and three in La Liga with Villarreal, in a 17-year professional career.

## Early life

Cygan was born in Lens, Pas-de-Calais.

## Career

### Lille

Cygan started his senior career in the ranks of lowly ES Wasquehal before going professional with Lille OSC in 1995, making his Division 1 debut that year but also going on to also spend three seasons in Division 2. In 1999–2000 he was an instrumental defensive element for the champions and, in the subsequent top-flight campaign, helped them achieve a third-place finish, with qualification to the UEFA Champions League.

In this time, Cygan was also promoted to the captaincy, seen as a role model to help develop the younger players. He was also winner of the *Etoile d'Or* in his last year in France.

### Arsenal

Cygan joined Arsenal in July 2002 for £2 million, making his debut in a 1–1 draw with Chelsea on 1 September after coming on as a late substitute for Nwankwo Kanu. While he featured notably in some of the team's more important fixtures, he was mostly considered only a fringe player; he missed the 2003 FA Cup final through injury, but did pick up a Premier League winners' medal in 2004 after contributing with 18 appearances.

Cygan scored three goals for Arsenal in league action, including an unlikely brace in his first game of 2005–06 against Fulham (4–1 home win). Until then he had only netted once, against Everton in March 2003.

Also that season, following injuries to both Ashley Cole and Gaël Clichy, Cygan was drafted in as an emergency left back, and was even named in the *Opta* team of the week on 9 January 2006. Overall, his side won 12 of the 20 matches he played in and kept 11 clean sheets in the process. He suffered a hamstring injury in January against Middlesbrough and was unable to play again that season as he was fourth choice behind Sol Campbell, Philippe Senderos and Kolo Touré, with young Johan Djourou also competing for a place.

Cygan played 98 competitive games during his spell at Highbury, including 20 in the Champions League.

### Spain

In August 2006, Cygan completed a transfer to Villarreal CF for a £2 million transfer fee, joining former Arsenal teammate and compatriot Robert Pires at the club. On 6 June 2008, after having been fairly used in his first two years, mainly due to consecutive serious injuries to Gonzalo Rodríguez, he signed a new one-year deal. However, following a lack of first-team opportunities in 2008–09, and with Villarreal unwilling to extend his contract for a further campaign, he left in July 2009; his La Liga goals came on 5 November 2006 against Real Betis (3–2 home win), and against Levante UD on 31 October 2007 (3–0, also at El Madrigal).

On 10 August 2009, Cygan joined FC Cartagena, recently promoted to Segunda División, on a one-year deal. Aged 37, he was released by the Murcians and retired from professional football.
