Date of death?[edit]

The current entry says October 31st 2013. However, this site, with a quote from his gravestone says October 21st. Which is it? http://www.militaryairshows.co.uk/unex11.htm Quote: He was buried in a streamlined coffin to match his car at Brompton cemetry, London. His Epitaph read: 'A modest friend, a fine gentleman and a thorough sportsman. The first man to cover 100 miles in one hour. Killed by accident at Brooklands Motor Racing Track whilst attempting further records. October 21st, 1913.' — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.217.252.132 (talk) 11:22, 20 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
