Edgar Bairstow (see 14th September 1919), who had been transferred to the Army Reserve Class Z a year previously, was awarded a grant of £32 10s. in lieu of any further pension award.
A review of the pension award made to William Arthur Hutchinson (see 30th July 1919), who had had his left leg amputated as a result of wounds suffered on 29th October 1918, resulted in his assessed level of disability being reduced to 70% and his Army pension £2 2s. 8d. per week.
A report submitted by the Directorate of Graves Registration and Enquiries detailed the re-burial, at Aeroplane Cemetery, Ypres, of the remains of a number of men which had been recovered from isolated burial sites. Among them were the remains of the late Pte. Frederick James Farthing (see 9th December 1919), who had been killed in action in October 1917; the location of Pte. Farthing’s original grave is not recorded.
