Berkeley was purportedly at fault for a three-car-collision that resulted in two deaths, possibly because of alcohol he had imbibed at a cocktail party beforehand. To the far right is J.H. Silverstone, presumably the jury foreman. Handwritten annotation from nitrate negative: J.H. Silverstone and jury Text from original nitrate sleeve: Silverstone, J.H.; Hudson, William; Jury in triple crash; Holtslander, Edward T.
