Linda,

I believe that there was an article about James printed in the Manchester Evening News on the 18th May 1918 (the article will probably include a picture of James) . Unfortunately the 1918 Manchester Evening News is not available on-line so a trip to Central Library in Manchester would be required to view the article.

From the Manchester Evening News index.
