Cpl. Arthur Lee
MM (see 29th March), who
had reported as ‘absent without leave’ having failed to return from leave to
England from 8th Yorks. and Lancs., reported to 1st
Battalion Yorks. and Lancs. at Rollestone Camp on Salisbury Plain.
Pte. James Moran
(see 6th December 1918),
who, it seems, had been recently released from prison having served a twelve
months sentence for manslaughter, was formally transferred to the Army Reserve Class
Z. He was originally awarded an Army pension on grounds of ‘debility caused by
active service’; it was noted that, ‘states that he is not fit and has suffered
in health since joining up. Heart and lungs sound; slight wounds healed and no
inconvenience’. However, his award of 10s. 4d. per week, to be reviewed after
six months, would be annulled and his claim rejected.
