        Surrey Mirror 24 December 1965

        A quiet, 92nd birthday
        Mr Arthur Humphreys, of Gomers Cottage Park-lane East, Reigate, who was gardener at Sandfells, Reigate, for 32 years, quietly celebrated his 92nd birthday on Wednesday [ 15th ] last week.
        Mr Humphreys and his 87- years-old wife, Mary, have lived at Gomers Cottage since the Lord Mayor's show day in November 1900. They have no electricity, and until two months ago, when a tap was installed in their small scullery, used a water-pump.
        This pretty little cottage is full of antiques, china and pictures. "Some are of great value," Mrs Humphreys told our reporter. It appears, also, that antique dealers take a lively interest in the contents of the cottage!
        Mr Humphreys, who was a special constable in the First World War, has been a jobbing gardener all his life, although he is content to relax in his retirement. Mrs Humphreys keeps their neat garden in trim.
