501143 Alec Doughty My father, Alec Doughty, was an interpreter at Harperley Camp and amongst the gifts made for him by prisoners was an elaborately carved walking stick. My mother used the stick when she broke her knee and my father used it after suffering a stroke. Unfortunately the walking stick was stolen when my father left it propped up outside a toilet he was using in London. He was very upset about it as it had great sentimental value. I have no idea who the prisoner was that carved and made the stick with such expertise, if anyone has any knowledge as to who may have carved it I would love to hear from them.
