Tuesday 20th May 1919

Cpl. Harry Wood MM (see 5^th May) underwent a further operation at the Royal Infirmary in Manchester; his shoulder wound was ‘scraped and packed with B.I.P’; subsequent reports over the following weeks would establish that the discharge from the wound gradually diminished. However, a further operation would subsequently be required.

Maj. William Norman Town (see 30^th April) was officially released from the Army; he completed his paperwork at no.1 Dispersal Unit at Ripon and gave his address as c/o Joseph Town & Sons, Back Albion Street, Leeds.

Pte. Charles Oldham (see 23^rd September 1918), who had been serving with 5DWR, was formally transferred to the Army Reserve Class Z.

A payment of £14 4s. 4d. was authorised, being the amount due in pay and allowances (including a war gratuity of £12) to the late Pte. James Isaac King (see 24^th April) who had been killed in action on 27^th October 1918; the payment would go to his mother, Sarah Lester, resident of Herndon, West Virginia, USA.
