General Sir Owen Thomas, M.P., speaking at Carnarvon, said that while he was raising the Welsh Army Corps, a householder, upon whom soldiers had been billeted, came to him with a complaint that one of the men had disappeared, and with him a gramophone. “He’s gone with my gramophone,” complained the man. “It was an attraction m my house, which I let in summer.” The General inquired if anything else had disappeared. “Yes, my wife,” replied the man, “but that gramophone cost me £11.”
