Transcription: I appeal against the decision of the Local Tribunal on my claim for total exemption from military service on the following grounds\n(a) I am certain that my position as a conscientious objector to every department of military service was grossly misunderstood. I thought I made it absolutely clear to them that I cannot take any share in whatsoever is of the nature of an act of war. In my individual capacity I am quite prepared to give Queens, comfort or inspiration to whomever stands in need of it and to alleviate pain and suffering if the opportunity arises. This is in its very essence a Christian work. However, under no circumstances can I submit myself to military control & become part of the military organisation. Any such action of mine would deprive me of any power of initiative and individuality and would simply make me a part of the military machine. My religion, the highest ideals of my life, forbids me to sear absolute and unconditional allegiance to anyone except God himself. Therefore not to exempt me from all military service does not meet the claims of my conscience and I find it impossible to join the Royal Army Medical Corps P.T.O.

Address: Aubrey House, Queens Rd, Aberystwyth

Occupation, profession or business: Ministerial Student

Attested or not attested: Not attested

Grounds: I am aggrieved at the decision made by the Local Tribunal concerning my claim for exemption for the following reasons.\nFirst of all, I am confident that they have not understood my position as a conscientious objector to all military service. As I stated to them , I cannot participate in any act of war nor can i either take the military oath or allow it to be assumed that I have taken it. \nIn my individual capacity, I am quite prepared to give comfort and inspiration to those in need of it and alleviate pain and suffering wherever the opportunity is given. This is, undoubtedly a Christlike work. But even for this work I cannot submit myself to military control and become part of military organisation, because this would take away from me all initiative and individuality and simply make me part of a machine. My conscience forbids me to give absolute and unconditional allegiance to any except God Himself. Thus, not b exempt me from all military service does not meet the claims of my conscience, and I find it impossible to enter the R.A.M.C.\nAnother important matter that has been overlooked is my present work in College. I am now in the very middle of my College Career and am pursuing an Honours Course in History. Moreover, I realise that my call in life is to minister to the spiritual + religious needs of men. God has called me to the Highest task, to which it is possible to call a man. Is it reasonable to refuse me the right to prepare myself for the Christian ministry, a work undoubtedly of supreme national importance? Moreover I am even now actively engaged in religious work both in

Attested or not attested: Not attested

Grounds: Continued from page attached to the form...... college and outside. My claim is therefore, that I be exempted from all military service on condition that I be engaged in work of national importance and the work that I feel most adapted for and definitely called to is the work of Christian Ministry. If witnesses are needed to prove the absolute sincerity of these convictions, which I have but very imperfectly expressed, since I cannot express them too strongly, they are forthcoming. I ask if it is essential in the national interest that ministers should be exempted is it not just as necessary that those who are in active preparation for such ministry should merit exemption too. The importance of my present work seems to have had but little consideration by the Local Tribunal and the nature of my objection was completely misunderstood. I felt that the only logical stand I can take as a conscientious objector is one for total (underlined) exemption for all (underlined) military service. Any act of war is, to my mind, definitely antagonistic to the whole spirit of Christ's teaching, as we find it in the New Testament.

Occupation, profession or business: University Student (In Normal Training Department under Board of Education).

Attested or not attested: Not attested

Grounds: I appeal against the decision of the Local Tribunal re my case on the following grounds. (1) I am convinced that the Local Tribunal either misunderstood or deliberately disregarded my position as a conscientious objector to military service. In my appeal I thought I made it quite clear that I am not willing to take the military oath or allow it to be assumed that I have taken it since absolute allegiance to two different persons is impossible. I shall not partake in any work which is under military control and which is a deliberate act of war. My objections is not based on any political creed but on deep religious convictions. It is my deep rooted conception of the obedience I owe to no earthly (king) master, but to the King of Kings and to the Prince of Peace. Secondly, my work in preparing for the education of the rising generation is of the utmost importance. As one famous author says \"Teachers touch the soul of the future\" and so have the most to do in the moulding of the character of future citizens of Britain. This claim was ignored as the exemption certificate shows that the only ground taken into consideration was (f) the conscience clause. Therefore as a conscientious objector and being prepared for the teaching of the young, a work essentially of national importance, I think I am entitled to exemption.

I am willing to serve my country in any work of national importance which I may be able to do consistent with conscience. But in nothing will I have it assumed that I have taken the oath.

She is a hard working lady of 76 years of age and she has brought up two grandchildren namely Richard Rees and his sister. Richard Rees is the sole support of his Grandmother and his orphan sister and if he is taken away it would be a very serious case for the old Lady and granddaughter as neither of them can do anything to help themselves, and great hardship may ensue to bother of them.

Transcription: Ackworth School, Near Pontefract, 28 May 1916. Evan Evans Esq. Secretary of the Cardiganshire Appeal Tribunal. Dear Sir, I beg to acknowledge receipt of your notice that my appeal will be further considered at (deleted) next Friday June 2nd. In connection therewith I enclose a copy of a letter that I have received this morning from the Committee on work of National Importance from which I gather that the tribunal has communicated with them regarding my case. May I ask whether you are at liberty to inform me whether the tribunal has already decided to refer my case to the Pelham Committee, or whether it wishes finally consider my case next Friday. If they have decided to refer me to the committee, do you think they would be prepared to dispense with my appearance before them next Friday. I only suggest this as it seems possible that they may wish to refer any further evidence to the committee; but if they have any desire that I should attend I am quite prepared to do so, though my absence from the school for two or three days would cause some inconvenience. With regard to the enclosed I would like to point out that, I am at present engaged in teaching mathematics and science here, that I am a considerable distance from my home (Cardiff), and that I have accepted the post since sending in my appeal. I would be much obliged to you if you could let me have advice by wire as to whether I had better appear before the tribunal or not. I enclose a stamped form.

Transcription: Dear Sir, Your application for assistance in obtaining work of national importance as the condition of your exemption from military service has been considered by the committee, but I am directed to inform you that without a personal interview they find it difficult to recommend work which you would be qualified to undertake. The committee would suggest for your consideration that you might take up work for the Y.M.C.A. or some teaching post. You will probably be able to communicate with some Education Authority on the subject. Failing this the committee could only recommend your employment on a farm or market garden where labour is really needed. In any case it is a stipulation of the Committee that the work must be at some distance, say over 20 miles from home, and it is necessary whatever work you undertake that you obtain and forward to the Committee a letter from your employer stating that he is willing to engage you, the nature of the work, and the remuneration.

Occupation, profession or business: Blacksmith, Shoeing Smith and Agricultural Implement Maker

Attested or not attested: Attested

Grounds: I am a Blacksmith, Shoeing Smith and Agricultural Implement Maker in business at South Gate, Aberystwyth, where I have carried on the business for the past 24 years. I work for a very wide agricultural district and the nearest forge to mine on the Aberayron road is nearly five miles away, and on the Llanbadern side also the nearest forge is 5 miles away.\nMy customers are drawn almost exclusively from the farms class, and I make a speciality of the making and repairing of agricultural implements. Before the outbreak of war I had two men and one apprentice in my employ. One man, David William Jones, joined the forces in August 1914 and since then I have had to carry on the forge with the aid of my son, Evan Thomas Jones, and an inexperience apprentice, as I have been unable to replace the said David William Jones. I am 55 years of age as as my health is not what it was, I have had to rely for the past 5 years upon my son, Evan James Thomas, to do the heavy work for me, especially to the shoeing of restive horses. I have entered into a contract for the weekly supply of 50 pairs of horseshoes for the Government and if I am deprived of the services of my son, I shall have to cancel this contract and in all probability, I shall have to close the forge, which will entail special hardship to me, as I depend upon it for my living, and also to the neighbouring farming community, as my son is indispensable to my business. I also claim exemption for my son on the ground that he is engaged in a reserved occupation.

Eight women are also employed. Lewis is a married man with a wife and two children depending. It will be practically impossible to replace him as linotype operators can make much higher money in the big towns & will not come to the country. the Cambrian news has throughout the war rendered signal service to recruiting and assisted the military authorities in every way.

Transcription: 6th July 1916\nEvan Evans ESQ.,\nClerk to the Cardigan Appeal Tribunal,\nGt. Darkgate St.,\nAberystwyth\n\nDear Sir,\nCardigan Appeal Tribunal : 7th July 1916\nre David Thomas: No.4 on list.\n\nI am acting on behalf of Mr E. E Jenkins, builder, of Aberystwyth, who applied for exemption in regard to the above-named David Thomas before the Aberystwyth Borough Tribunal. Mr Jenkins has in his employ another Stonemason, vizi-Arthur Corfield, a single man, who was rejected under the Derby Scheme, and I have had an interview today with Major Williams, the Military Representative, with reference to the military appeal lodged against David Thomas, and Major Williams has agreed that the case shall stand over until the next Appeal Tribunal to be held for the hearing of appeals from the Aberystwyth Borough so as to enable Arthur Corfield to be again medically examined in the meantime so as to ascertain whether he is now fit for military duties, inasmuch as he is a single man whilst David Thomas is a married man with a large family. I shall accordingly be much obliged if you will kindly arrange for the case to stand over at the Appeal Tribunal tomorrow, at which in the circumstances I shall not attend, and Major Williams has requested me to ask you not to reinstate David Thomas' case in the list until you receive a further communication from him.\n\nYours truly\n\nD Emrys Williams\n

Under the circumstances I hope you will allow him to continue his studies at Aberystwyth. I feel he will be of more value to his Country in the future by doing so than by entering the army for quite unimportant duties. Lest you may think I am unpatriotic I may say that his younger brother joined voluntarily when only just 18.

Transcription: British Dental Association, 19 Hanover Square, London W. 20th June 1916\nDear Sir\nI forward for your information and guidance the rider appended to a decision of the Central Tribunal with reference to the case of a dentist for whom an appeal was made by the Association. In the first instance, the dentist was granted merely a short postponement by the Local Tribunal; he appealed against this decision to the Appeal Tribunal, who, while declining to alter the decision, granted leave to appeal to the Central Tribunal. The Solicitors of the Association were instructed to endeavour to obtain permission for the Council to appear before the Central Tribunal on his behalf. This permission, however, was not granted and only a written appeal was allowed. A statement was accordingly drawn up on general principles in order that an appeal might be considered in the light of a test case, and the Association offered to depute one of its members to attend before the Tribunal to discuss the matter. This lead to an interview with the Executive Committee on June 2nd. The committee discussed the whole problem with the Central Tribunal from the point of view of National Interests and Public Health and also hardships of individual dentists.\nThe appeal in the case referred to was allowed, and the dentist was granted exemption conditional upon his remaining in his present occupation, and the following important addition was appended to the decision :- \n\"The Central tribunal from evidence submitted to them are impressed with the danger of further reducing the number of registered dentists now in the country. Whether nay particular dentist should be granted exemption must obviously depend to some extent upon the requirements of the place in which he practices, but they are inclined to think that unless it be shown that his services are not required he should be granted an exemption. Similar considerations apply to the mechanics on whom dentists depend for the efficient performance of their work.\"\nI trust that this pronouncement, coming as it does, from the Central tribunal, will be assistance to those who may be appealing for exemption, either on their own behalf of for their mechanics.\nYours sincerely\nFrank J. Pearce\nHon. Secretary

Transcription: To the Cardigan Appeal Tribunal \n\nGentlemen\n As I am unable to speak my case clearly in English I am stating it on paper. I started in the baking trade in 1913 employing my son as a baker also to keep all accounts as I unable to do same, delivering all bread myself to a district of 10 to 15 miles radius.\nHe is the only man of military age at home also the only baker in Penparks, one son serving with the 4th Welsh, also a son-in-law seen active services, winning the D.C.M. I have one daughter (an invalide) being home nearly 12 months, being now in Cardiff Hospital under treatment, also a daughter at home suffering from the effects of Rheumatic Fever. I have speculated all in the business so it would mean selling up the business, also it would ensure serious hardship if my son should go. I object to all questions raised in English. \nYours faithfully\nDaniel Hughes

Transcription: Cardiganshire Education Committee, Penparke National School, Aberystwyth\nMar 25th 1916. School No.6\nRev. Sir\nThe following reasons I think would be of interest to the Managers in making an application for exemption from \"Military Service\" on my behalf;\n1. If replaced by a woman, efficiency of school would suffer as a female would have great difficulty with the discipline on account of the nature of school.\n2. H.M.Inspector verbal report at his last visit (Mar 10th). The work of he school had reached a very high standard. It would be a great hardship on present headteacher if called away after such good work. ( I was told to mention this to the Manager in any case).\n3. Mrs Thomas after a very serious operation which she had to undergo last January has not yet fully recovered.\nI remain\nYours faithfully\nT. Ll. Thomas\n\n

During his absence he has arranged that the work shall be carried out by a paid traveller. It is a very difficult matter to obtain a man to carry out this work.\n4.

Transcription: My Laundry is the only Steam Laundry in or near to the County of Cardigan, and I do the Laundry work for all the Hotels and most of the Institutions (including the Red Cross Hospital) in and near to Aberystwyth, and there is no other Laundry available.\nThe Capital invested in the Laundry amounts to \u00a34000.\nBefore the War three men were employed for indoor work, but now I only have this man left.\nIt is absolutely necessary for the working of the Laundry that at least one man (experienced) should be employed upon indoor work to do the work of Boiler man Engine man and Wash-house man, where he has sole charge of the power plant and machinery including repairs as well as the daily working of the machinery.\nThis work could not be done by a woman, because the plant includes a Boiler and Engine in addition to the Washing machines. \nOn the 31st March 1916 Temporary Exemption was granted in respect of this man to the then proprietor of my Laundry, but there being then one other man at the Laundry to do the indoor work this man joined the Army about six weeks before his Exemption expired.\nOn the 25th May 1916 this man was discharged from the Army \"in consequence of being rejected by the Medical Board at Newport, Mon,\" he accordingly returned to the Laundry and the other man joined the Army.\nThis man was on the 17th May last examined by the Recruiting Medical Board at Carmarthen and classified \"A\",\nNotwithstanding the fact that he remained in the same state of health as when previously examined (a Medical Certificate in regard to this will be produced to the Tribunal)\nThis man is fully employed at the Laundry and I myself work from 6-30 a.m. till 8 or 9 p.m. and my Wife also devotes the whole of her time to the business in which I employ 25 women and girls.\nI submit that it is expedient in the National Interests that my Laundry should be allowed at least a minimum of one man to enable it to continue working, especially in view of the fact that the town and neighbourhood of Aberystwyth depend upon him for Laundry work in addition to the facts that I am such a large employer of labour and have such a large Capital at stake as are mentioned above, and that serious hardship would ensue if I were not allowed this one man inasmuch as the whole of my Capital is at stake.

Transcription: St John's College, Cambridge, 31st Oct 1917. \nTo the Chairman of the Cardiganshire Appeal Tribunal\nDear Sir,\nI understand that the ground on which the Military Appeal for the withdrawal of my certificate is being made, is that I should be compelled to submit to further medical examination. I should be much obliged if you would permit me to make the following statement with reference to the facts giving rise to the Appeal.\nDuring the vacation I received a notice calling me up for medical reexamination. About the same time my attention was drawn to the following cutting from \"The Times\" of July 13th 1917. \n\"CERTIFIED EXEMPTIONS\nNOT LIABLE FOR RE-EXAMINATION\nAt the House of Commons Appeal Tribunal yesterday Mr. D. Maclean, M.P., stated that after consultation with the authorities he was authorised to confirm his previous statement that a man holding a valid certificate of exemption under the Military Service Act, 1916, was not liable to be called up by the Army authorities for medical re-examination during the currency of his certificate, except in the case of a man who has never been examined and classified by an Army Medical Board. \nThe same principle applied to an attested man in similar circumstances, the intention having been frequently expressed that an attested man was not to be placed at a disadvantage as compared with a non-attested man. There were some cases where a man had been rejected and held a certificate of exemption but was liable for re-examination, but on classification for any form of military service he started with fresh tribunal rights\"\nAs I held a Tribunal Exemption Certificate and had already been examined by a Medical Board (class B 3) I already fell within the lines of Mr Maclean's statement. I accordingly wrote to the Barry Recruiting Officer and pointed out that I was not liable to reexamination during the currency of my certificate. \nIn view of my low Medical category, and the further evidence\nPTO

Transcription: Glanrhyd, Nantymoel, Glamorganshire, 26th Sept 1917.\nTo the Chairman of the \nAberystwyth Borough Tribunal\nDear Sir,\nI shall be much obliged if you will lay before your Tribunal the following considerations with reference to the Military Appeal against my Exemption.\n1. Since the outbreak of war I have been totally rejected on four ocasions (No 11th 1914; July 10th 1915; Nov 22nd 1915 and January 17th 1916) I served in the Officers Training Corps for some time but was then discharged on account of my physical unfitness. On each occasion the chief cause of my rejection was on permanent injury to the leg. On examination by a Medial Board I was classified as fit only for clerical work (B3). In view of the permanent character of the disablement as further testified by the attached medical certificate, there seems no ground for further examination\n2. As I am in Class B3, I come under the Bd of Education Agreement with the War Office whereby all students under class B1 came to be exempted from service\n3. I am being educated for the work of teaching and I am at present engaged in research work on industrial conditions - work which is of the highest importance at the present time. I propose going up to Cambridge next season and as I have already become a student of that University paid my fees it would be a serious financial loss if I was not allowed to proceed there.\nYours very truly\nIlltyd Davies\n*Carmarthen Medical Bd

He served his apprenticeship with me and has been in my employ continuously for the past 15 years. He offered himself for attestation under the Derby Group System but was rejected on the 8th November 1915. In May 1916 he was examined by the Newport Medical Board and again rejected. In May 1917 he was called up for re-examination under the Review of Exceptions Act and was placed in Class R.R. by the Carmarthen Medical Board. On the 15th November 1917 he was again re-examined by the Carmarthen Medical Board and placed in Grade 3 (three), and was informed by the President of the Board that his classification was equivalent to the former C.3 Class. Owing to his state of health, he has always been employed by me on light work. He is a most experienced assistant and on the grounds of his state of health and his experience I apply for exemption for him.

Since my last appearance before you, I have been engaged in the Mercantile Marine as a Seaman. I have now been requested by the Aberystwyth Town Council to resume my occupation as as fisherman with a view to increasing the food supplies of the Town and district and if my application is granted, it is intended that I should enter into an arrangement with the Abersytwyth Town Council for the sale of all my catches of fish at Aberystwyth at a fixed price fro the benefit of the inhabitants of the Town and district. I am 41 years of age, married, and have been rejected for the Royal Naval Reserve upon voluntary enlistment since the present War commenced as being unfit on medical grounds. As the fishing grounds of Cardigan Bay are at present teeming with fish, an abundant food supply is waiting to be utilised and in view of the present shortage of food, I beg to submit that my exemption by you from military service would materially assist in increasing the food supply of the district and would enable me to serve the national interest in the very best possible way at the present time having regard to my exceptional qualifications as an expert fisherman.\nI am, Gentleman,\nYour obedient servant,\nJ H Thomas

Reeves, The Bibby Cake Stores, Aberystwyth, on whom we rely absolutely for the looking after of our interests generally in the Aberystwyth district.\nSince the commencement of the War, we have lost upwards of 60% of our male staff, replacing all as far as possible with female labout together with one or two discharged soldiers.\n\nWe are raisers of absolutely New Breeds of Oats, Wheats and Barley, as well as other Farm Plants, and our efforts in this direction have been so successful as to very materially increase yields per acre of Food Stuffs on the farm for the past 30 years.\n\nWe are constantly being reminded by the Board of Agriculture to maintain or if possible to increase the output of our New Pedigreed Seed Grain and are doing all in our power to rise to the occasion. In the early stages of the War, however, we encouraged recruiting and lost a very large percentage of our employees, and in fact our staff is now depleted to such a point that we really cannot lose the services of one further man without jeopardizing our output.\n\nIn accordance with the request of the Board of Agriculture last Spring, we have raised larger stocks than usual for distribution during the coming Spring months, and if we are to lose the services of our distributors, farmers having been used

Name and address of last employer before 15 August 1915: own employer

Name of employer: own employer

Nature of application: application for renewal of exemption

Grounds: A and D

Reasons in support of application: I am married with 2 children and am in business on my own account as a Fancy Draper, Milliner and Ladies Outfitter. I have been in business on my own account for 12 years at Aberystwyth and have been in the drapery trade for the past 25 years. I am the only male in the business and the only person capable of taking charge of the same. I am a large ratepayer and have a large turnover in the way of business.

I can assure you Gentlemen that it is very rarely that I can get through a nights rest, without coming downstairs 2 or 3 times to get either a cup of tea made, or hot milk to try to soothe the severe turns of coughing she is so subject to and which leave her quite prostrate from the strain I have absolutely no relative whom I can turn too for any assistance and of course one cannot expect strangers to do much in a case like mine.

Reasons in support of application: Have already given two years + voluntary service with YMCA Sept 1915 - Oct 1917. was the 1st to volunteer for the same from Trevecca in 1915 having resonated (?) also with Dr Thomas, now at Brecon with a view to R.A.M.C work, but owing to a call from the YMCA headquarters for immediate service at Essex, I proceeded there. My work with the YMCA was extremely hard, sometimes I worked fro 12 + 13 hours a day. The result was a break down in health which necessitated my taking a few weeks rest. Immediately on the first signs of recovery I took on YMCA work and continued up to Oct of last year, when in view of my health, and the fact that my category was CI I returned to Aberystwyth College. I have just completed a session of hard work and am preparing for an important exam for next year. If my educational courses were again interrupted the results would be ruinous.

To: - The Clerk to the Tribunal, Dear Sir, RE Percy David Smerdon Vokes. of 73 North Parade, Aberystwyth. Should your Tribunal see their way to grant this man exemption if he obtains work of National Importance, we have the honour to state that he is working for us at the present time as a foreman of timber hauliers. Owing to this previous experience in the timber trade in Canada he is a very useful man for this purpose, and we should find it difficult to adequately replace him. Most of the timber which he is engaged in hauling is being consigned to collieries for use as pit props, and we probably need not point out that this is work of the greatest possible national importance, inasmuch as it is impossible to obtain coal without pit props, and that, therefore, every branch of munition work must obviously be affected by the supply of pit props being maintained. We are, Dear Sir, Yours faithfully, per pro George Andersn & Andersons A.G.P.

He has worked at his trade as a carpenter from his youth, is a skilled carpenter and when Richard Owen lost the service of his foreman John Mason who joined the colours in September 1916 Williams succeeded him and has been able to learn to work all the machinery with the exception of a spindle machine of which Mason had hitherto charge.\nThe said Richard Owen has an extensive business as a builder and contractor and owing to the fact that his staff and the staff of all the other local builders have been so depleted it is difficult and at times impossible to complete essential work. The retention of Williams serices is indespensible if the said Richard Owen's business is to be continued.
