L.Cpl. Christopher Leigh (see 27th July
1917), who had been serving with the Military Foot Police, was transferred
to the Army reserve Class Z; he would be subsequently assessed as having
suffered a 20% disability due to neurasthenia and would be awarded an Army
Pension.
Pte. Arthur Holden
(see 2nd December 1918),
who had been in England since having been wounded in October 1918, was formally
discharged from the Army as no longer physically fit for service due to wounds
to his left arm; he was assessed as having suffered an 80% disability and was
awarded an Army pension of £1 7s. 4d. per week.
Letters of
administration in the estate of his late son were granted to Thomas Whitaker,
father of the late 2Lt. Samuel Whitaker
(see 23rd April) who had
died from ‘influenza and broncho-pneumonia’ shortly after returning home from
Italy in February; his estate was valued at £200.
