Hi Christine, Further news this time from the Liverpool Daily Post dated 30 March 1870 and on FMP. AN OMNIBUS ACCIDENT - BENSON v SMITH AND ANOTHER - Mr. R. G. Williams and Mr. T.H. James were for the plaintiff, ANTHONY BENSON; and Mr. Gully was for the defendant William SMITH. The Plaintiff who is a son of MR. BENSON, Stationer, of Castle Street, Liverpool, claimed compensation for personal injuries alleged to have been received through the negligence of the defendant.....etc. Further down the article it states Anthony held a situation at 80 pounds per annum, with prospects of advancement, in a ship broker's office and he had lost that position. His injuries were a broken leg and arm. If you don't have access to this Article I can transcribe it in full......but it could have been your ANTHONY BENSON I believe.
