Fishguard and Goodwick Education…
Fishguard and Goodwick Education Authority. MONTHLY MEETING. At a meeting of the Fishguard and Good- wick Group of County Council Elementary School Managers, held at the Fishguard Council Schools, over which Mr Walter L Williams,IC.C. (chairman), presided. There were present Messrs J C Bowen, T James, W James, and Francis A Davies, together with the headmasters of Fishguard and Henner Schools (Messrs 0 D Jones and E Anthony respectively), Miss Edwards (headmistress of the Fishguard Infants School), and the Depu- ty Clerk (Mr R E Williams). CLEANER'S SALARY. An application for an increase of salary as cleaner to Fishguard School had been recei- ved from Mr J S Lewis, but it was decided that it be not entertained, it being felt that the managers would not be justified in grant- ing the application without previously re- advertising the post. STAFF CHANGE. The Deputy Clerk read a letter from the Director of Education (Mr H E H James) an- nouncing that the Education Committee had decided to appoint Mr Morgan D Lake as a certificated assistant teacher at Henner school, and that he would take up his duties there on February ist. THE ATTENDANCE PROBLEM. Another letter received from the Director called special attention to the fact that the attendance registers had not been tested during two quarters of the last school year, and directed that, in default of the Managers attending to this matter, the Clerk should do so. THE COAL CONTROVERSEY. A further letter from the Director asked for particulars as to the probable amount of coal that would be required in both schools up to the end of March. It was decided that the attention of the Director be called to the resolution passed by the Managers at the last meeting, to which they were still awaiting a reply, and that it be pointed out that it was only the best steam coal that could be used iu the heating appa- ratus at Fishguard. TEACHERS' REPORTS. The monthly reports of the three head teachers were individually submitted and ap- proved. FURTHER STAFF CHANGES. Mr Anthony having informed the Managers that Miss Francis had accepted a situation under the Ebbw Vale Education Authority, it was agreed, on the proposition of Mr T James, seconded by Mr F A Davies, that in her place there be appointed a certificated female teacher proficient in needlework and singing, and that it be recemmended thatMiss Roblin be transferred to the infants school in order to make room for her.
A St David's Election Cry.
A St David's Election Cry. FREE WATER SUPPLY FOR RHODIAD At the last meeting of the Haverfordwest District Council the Clerk read a petition signed by twentv-one inhabitants of Rhodiad in reference to a water supply for the locality. It was reported," said the petitioners, that Mr Martin had said that only in the summer months there was a scarcity of water. This is a false statement. We have no well of our own, and we depend on the neighbouring farms for a supply of water. Mr Martin is well aware of this fact. We hope you as an honourable Council will grant our request, otherwise we shall be obliged to apply to the Local Government Board." Mr W G James: The honourable Council will now call upon Mr Martin (laughter). Mr J C Bowen Do we include Mr Martin in the honourable Council (laughter). Mr Martin explained that he had never said there was an ample supply of water at Rhodiad. The place stood very much in need of a supply, but the question was who was to provide a supply. As regarded the present supply there was ample water at the well that had been slJpplying the district for years.—Mr J W Davies endorsed Mr Martin's remarks. Mr Henry Evans We must go to the coun- try on this matter (cheers). Mr Martin There is no urgency whatever just now. Mr W G James: This is a matter to be deferred. There will be a parish council election in St David's soon, and the well question will provide a good election cry. We will afterwards have a concrete result before us. Mr J C Bowen It will make a splendid election cry (laughter). The matter was ultimately deferred.

Local Charities. TWO REORGANISED. We are authoritatively informed that ar- rangements are now being effected by Mr Thomas, of Old Manor House, Wrington near Bristol, a native of Fishguard, whereby the in- terest upon the capital of the Smith Charity shall be increased to four per cent, guaranteed by himself and his heirs in perpetuity. Arising out of a recent report which appear- ed in these columns, we have been furnished with the following ex parte particulars con- cerning the recent reorganisation of Vaughan's Charity, Jordanston. It appears that about Nov 1908 Mr Hugh Wathen Thomas wrote to the Rector (Rev Joseph Evans) asking him to call a meeting of the trustees of the charity in order to elect a new trustee in the place of Mr Henry Perkins, of Hendrewen, decea- sed. The Rector replied that he would be pleased to do, and suggested a certain date, He also said that Mr W G James, J.P., of Pantyphilip, was no longer a trustee, be- cause he had missed several of the meetings. To this Mr Thomas demurred,"and contended that Mr James should be given another chance of attending. Mr Thomas never understood that the Rector's suggestion concerning the date was intended as a notice convening a meeting, and was very much suprised, some three weeks later, upon meeting Mr Evans on the highway, to be told that he (the Rector) had recommended the names of two new trustess—Mr T Perkins, of Hendrewen, and Mr T Beynon, of Clegryn, Mr Thomas then 'distinctly told Mr Evans that he had no proper notice, and that he considered that he had been ignored entirely, although a trustee of over eighteen year's standing. A week or two later a cheque was presented to Mr Thomas for his signature, which was essential before the cheque could be cashed. Mr Thomas declined to sign it; on the grounds that he should have been consulted in the selection of the new trustees, and more es- pecially because he thought that Noncon- formists and Churchmen should be equally represented upon the trusteeship. As Mr Evans failed to fall in with Mr Thomas' views, the latter acting in conjunction with Mr Perkins, of Hendrewen, applied to the Charity Commissioners for the grant of a new scheme, which was acceded to upon condition that the Rector of the parish for the time being should be an ex-officio trustee, but not an ex-officio' chairman of the trustees as had hitherto been the case, the the appointment being left in the hands of a parish meeting. I was further directed that Mr Hugh Wathen Thomas was to be a life trustee.-At a meeting of the new trustees held on Tuesday night last week the Rev Joseph Evans was appointed as Chairman and Correspondent and Mr H W Thomas as Vice-chairman. It was arranged that the charity should be distributed on or about Friday next.
A Fair-day Squabble.
A Fair-day Squabble. ALLEGED ASSAULT AT MAENCLOCHOG. At Narberth County Court last week before Judge Bishop, Evan Pritchard, Tyllosg, Rose- bush. farmer, sued Griffith Phillips, Hafod, Eglwyswrw, farmer, and John Davies, Ddolgam, Eglwyswrw, for £ 15 damages for assault— £ q 10s damages for loss of work caused by the injuries, 10s for medical and travelling expenses, and £5 for pain and suffering. Messrs Stokes and Stokes, Tenby, appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr Ivor Bowen (instructed by Mr Wm. Evans, Fishguard) defended. The case was tried before a special jury. The plaintiff's evidence was to the effect that on the day of the October Fair in Maenclochog he was assaulted by Phillips and Davies, knock- ed down and beaten with a stick, his lips being cut and a contused wound inflicted on his head. His injuries were so serious that he had to be treated by Dr. Morgan for them. In cross-examination, he admitted that he was able to attend his sister's wedding in Nar- berth the day after the assault. The plaintiff's father, Hugh Pritchard, gave his evidence in English, but warned Mr Bowen that he might fall back on Welsh (laughter). The defence was that the plaintiff first assault- ed Phillips and Davies, and that they only acted in self-defence, the plaintiff being very quarrelsome in beer." (Laughter). It was ad- mitted that Davies struck Pritchard with a cane on his head, but counsel suggested that the con- tused wound on Pritchard's head was caused by his falling against a beer-cask. Mrs Eynon, licensee of the Farmer's Arms, stated that when she remonstrated with the plaintiff about creating a row in her house, he shoved her aside, and Miss Alice Eynon, who now lives in Narberth, said the first blow she saw struck in the house was struck by Pritcnard. Mr Ivor Bowen said it was only a fair day row, caused by Welsh blood and beer (laughter). The plaintiff started the scuffle, and got only what he deserved, but now he wanted money from the defendants so that he could go home and celebrate his victory at Rosebush. Mr Stokes submitted that the assault on the plaintiff was unprovoked, and that a blow in the mouth was no laughing matter. The jury found for the plaintiff assessing damages at 10s with costs.

A WELL-KNOWN FOOTBALLER. The football match, which was played at Mr H. Williams. Carmarthen Park at Easter (1909), between the Brothers Williams, of Haverfordwest, and the Brothers Randall, of Llanelly, will still be fresh in the memory of our readers and the following 1 ntere s ting statement is made by one of the winning team Mr Howard Williams, whose address is 1, Dark Street,Haverfordwest:- The least cold," says Mr Williams, would affect my kidneys, and bring on severe pains in my back and loins. Sometimes the pain would spread to my shoulders, I was also troubled with splitting headaches, and now and then came over dizzy. Hearing that Doan's backache kidney pills were a good medicine for such troubles, I made up my mind to try them.. They did me a great deal of good in every way, strengthening my back, and completely driv- ing away the pains. I can indeed speak well of Doan's pills. (Signed) Howard Williams." Over seven years after making the above statement, Mr Williams said :—" I still keep quite well, and I confirm all I said for Doan's backache kidney pills many years ago." Doan's backache kidney pills are two shil- lings and ninepence per box, or six boxes for thirteen shillings and ninepence.

ECHOES. Extract from the proceedings of a local organisation's annual meeting :—Chairman All in favour please say" Aye." (Cries of "Aye.") Anybody say No ? (A voice "No!"), Two negatives make an affirma- tive. (Laughter). The death is announced at Watford of an aged Wesleyan minister, the Rev. W James Lewis. He was a native of Pembrokeshire, and laboured for fourteen years in Jamaica, besides spending twenty-seven years in vari- ous English circuits. A phenomenal entry is anticipated at the next Cattle Show in the new class for asses. The latest definition of "an optimist" is A leader writer for a political daily paper during the progress of a general election." It was-if we remember rightly—that emi- nent divine, Sidney Smith, who declared that there were three degrees of terminological inexactitudes :—" Lies, d-- lies, and statis- tics." The reverend gentleman was probably troubled by fiscal and naval controversies, even as we of a later generation. A Great Western passenger train from Swansea narrowly escaped serious accident near Neath on Saturday' After leaving Landore Station the engine struck the pro- jecting jib of a heavy crane belonging to a local steel works. The locomotive cab was much damaged, and the roof of the coach following the guard's van was partially stripped. The swearing in of the common jury under the new system at the opening of the Suffolk Winter Assizes has proved a tedious process. When one juryman was about to kiss the Book under the old style Mr Justice Jelf ob- served, If you kiss the Book under the new system then any germs that may be on the Book are taken by yourself at your own risk." On Friday at Penrhiwgerwyn Lead Mine in North Cardiganshire, a man named Evan Rowlands was wheeling a truck to the mouth of the shaft, when, owing to a misunderstand- ing, there was no cage to receive it. The result was that both man and truck went down the shaft, which was about. 25 yards deep. The unfortunate miner was found dead, his body having been considerably mangled. Some strange antiquarian "finds" have taken place in Wales and elsewhere, but one of the most amusing was that of a large stone found in the middle of a 'Pembrokeshire field. The antiquary decided that it must be of very ancient orign, and no doubt came through some occult agency. As a matter of fact it had been placed there by a farmer to enable his cattle to scratch themselves 'It is one of the signs of a man's being out of employment when you see him with I is a cigarette in his mouth," said Judge Willis at Greenwich County-court. The scheme for State-aided insurance will evidently be more costly than anticipated
FISHGUARD ROUTE.
FISHGUARD ROUTE. IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT. IRISH BEEF FOR LONDON Of more 'than ordinary interest was an ex- periment made recently of conveying Irish beef to London by the Fishguard route. Scotch beef has long enjoyed almost a mon- opoly at Smithfield of a certain class of the best of the trade, this being rendered possible by the expedition with which the meat can be conveyed from north of the Tweed. But hitherto Ireland has been unable to establish a dead meat trade on somewhat similar lines. The way has now been successfully opened up via Fishguard. The experiment referred to consisted of the bodies of five prime Aber- been-Angus heifers. In order that the dress- ing, of the beef might be done in the style best suited to the London market, the Depart- ment of Agriculture and Technical Instruc- tion in Ireland paid the expenses of a Scotch butcher to go to Ireland to superintend the slaughtering of the animals. This having been accomplished to the satisfaction of Mr Esmonde (who sent the beef) and his friends, the beef was despatched to London by the Great Western Railway route. On arrival at the London Central Market the beef proved to be in a first-class condition and met a ready sale at the top market price of the day —namely, 4s 4d to 4s 6d per stone (81b). Commenting on the experiment the Meat Trades Journal says :—" The fact remains that Irish beef can be put on the markets in London and successfully compete with the Scotch article. We may therefore assume that in due time a regular supply of Irish beef will be forthcoming to the London market."
Preferred the Militiaman.
Preferred the Militiaman. WOMAN'S TRIP TO FISHGUARD, AND A BIGAMY SEQUEL. At Gorey (co. Wexford) Quarter Sessions last week, George Stafford, of Moneylawn, surrendered to his bail, and was put forward on the eharge of having, on the 29th Novem- ber, 1907, feloniously married Margaret Red- mond, at Ballyoughter, his first wife being then alive. Mr John R Cooper, Crown Solicitor, prose- cuted, and the accused was represented by Mr Brennan. When the charge was formally read out to him, the accused pleaded guilty. No petty jury had, therefore, to be sworn. Mr Brennan, speaking for the accused, said that in pleading guilty to this indictment on his behalf, he would like to point out that the circumstances of the case were extremely sad. The accused, was married to his first wife, Sarah Curley, in Wicklow in 1898, and they lived together for some time after the marriage. They lived at first with the wife's parents, but as the accused had to go a con- siderable distance every day to his work they took a house of their own. The wife, after a little while, got discontented, and returned to her parents, and although Stafford made sev- eral entreaties to her she would not come back to live with him. There was one child born to them before they separated. She went away to Kingstown with a militiaman named Marshall soon afterwards, and the ac- cused lived by himself for some years. One day when Stafford was in Kingstown, he saw his wife going with this other man, and he understood that she had some children by this militiaman. The last news Stafford heard about her, after her departure from Wicklow, was that she had gone across to England with this man Marshall. Abour four years ago he got a letter from Edinburgh purporting to come from Marshall which sta- ted that Sarah Curley was dead. He (Staff- ord) believed that this news was true, and about a year afterwards he married the sec- ond woman, Margaret Redmond, at Bally- oughter, and there were two children born of that marriage. It had been shown in the de- positions already made that the accused was stated to be a good, kind husband. He (Mr Brennan) firmly believed that Stafiord con- tracted the second marriage in the firm con- viction that his first wife was dead, and that the letter he got from Edinburgh was genu- ine. The man bore a very good character. Head Constable McGarry was sworn as to the character of the accused. He gave evi- dence as to having arrested him, when the accused pleaded guilty and said he would make a clean breast of the whole thing. On making enquiries he found that Stafford's first wife, Sarah Curley, was at the present time living at Fishguard with Marshall. He knew the accused to be a decent man, and from what he could learn from the other police the character he bore in the district was very good. Mr Brennan It is, altogether a very sad case, your Honor, and I .would ask your Lord- ship to deal with it as easily as you can. Judge Barry, addressing the accused, said he was charged with the very serious offence of bigamy. It was one of the most serious things a man could be charged with to dis- grace the ceremony of matrimony, and bring < shame and disgrace upon a virtuous woman. r As a matter of fact, a marriage carried out like that was not a ceremony at all. Accused A policeman in Wicklow advised me twice against going to see and look after this woman, my first wife. I did all I could to make her come back to me. His Honor That does not justify you in getting married to another woman. Your guilt is just the same, but under all the cir- cumstances of the case, you will be kept in custody until the rising of the court.
