Some thought him arrogant, even snobbish ( He is quite prepared , went the joke, to travel in the same car as his chauffeur ), but countless others, from young cricketers whom he encouraged to local people in his home county of Kent whom he helped in times of trouble, testified to his limitless generosity. For all his grandness and dignity, to everyone who knew him he was simply, Jim .
