Sergt. Morgan, son of Mrs. Morgan, formerly of the Rose and Crown, is now at home on sick furlough, having been wounded in the heel in the Dardanelles.

A meeting of the local Advisory Committees was held on Tuesday. There were, we understand, about 100 appeals. A good number were put back. The exemptions were very few.
