Oh boy, it's going to take some digging.   It's easy in the US as there's a journal,   Accidents in North American Mountaineering where it's all fastidiously documented.   I'm going to have to email a few people I've climbed with who are in the UK that are up on this.   Right off hand I'm at a loss so let me see what responses I am able to get.

I think it would be pretty difficult to get anything on an incident like this so long ago. i don't think having to get help like this reflects badly on Crowley at all afterall he was pioneering at a time when the difficulty, or even feasablity, of many routes was unknown.  I'll ask the SMC if they have anything but I doubt it.
