Cyril Brown was an ordinary working Jamaican, who hit a small jack-pot and so got his name, and his picture,
in the Gleaner on August 4th 1911.
Daily Gleaner 1911 August 4 page 5
Cyril Brown's winnings represented probably between
four and six months wages for an ordinary labourer, but I do not think there are any estimates of the earnings of an independent
operator, such as a drayman. Perhaps someone could give a figure?
