In 1897, Murray Finch-Hatton, 12th Earl of Winchilsea and a pioneering motorist, wrote to fellow board members of the Great Horseless Carriage Company: “Gentlemen — I believe you are aware that about three months ago, as the result of overwork, my health suddenly broke down, and Sir William Broadbent . . . ordered me at once to go to the Riviera.” But the rest cure had failed and Broadbent, an eminent physician, had judged the earl was “not in a fit state of health to undertake any responsible work”. As a result, he would be obliged to step down as a director.
1897年，第十二代溫奇爾西伯爵(Earl of Winchilsea)、早期賽車愛好者默里•芬奇-哈頓(Murray Finch-Hatton)寫信給偉大汽車公司(Great Horseless Carriage Company)的其他董事會成員：「先生們——我相信你們知道，大約三個月前，由於過度勞累，我突然病倒了，威廉•布羅德本特爵士(Sir William Broadbent)……命令我立刻前往法國里維埃拉（Riviera，又名蔚藍海岸）療養。」但休息療法失敗了，而名醫布羅德本特當時判定，溫奇爾西伯爵的健康狀況不允許他「從事任何擔責任的工作」。 結果，他將不得不辭去董事職務。
