The Memories of Clary Swann - Page 18 Tragically Tom Harniess's son Stanley is killed in a car accident in 1970. Tom's health suffered and he decides to sell a lease on The Casino. Clary together with Peter Keeble take up the lease in 1972, the lease is for 22 years. Tom and Maudie together with their youngest son James maintain a flat in The Casino and spend their time between Canvey and their home in Doncaster.
Clary and Peter work together to run the amusement park. In 1974 The Wild Mouse is sold and the land it stood on also sold off for development. Summers were still very busy as the later photos show. In 1982 Clary's daughter Lea takes over the donut kiosk outside The Casino - she still runs the donut kiosks situated outside Fantasy Amusements and Carousel Amusements. The donut machine in Fantasy kiosk is the original machine from outside The Casino - still in use after some 30 odd years
