| Ddisgrifiad / Description | She has been summoned to appear in court for non-payment of rates to Llandudno UDC. She is unable to appear and requests that her case, which she attributes to the war, is laid before the magistrates as follows: she is a widow with four unmarried sons, three of whom are doing military service. She receives just 14s.3d. per week as an allowance for two of them. Her house [a guesthouse?] was greatly affected when the boats stopped running and this, together with an increase in the cost of living, has resulted in her being unable to pay her bills. Offers to pay by instalments and hopes for leniency from the bench. |
