EVANS Aneurin Weber

The following is from an unidentified local newspaper:
Driver Aneurin W. Evans, M.T., A.S.C., son of Mr D.C. Evans, M.Sc., F.R.G., headmaster of St Clears C. School, and of Mrs Evans, Ardwyn, St Clears, killed in action in France on 30th Sept., 1917. Deceased, who was 32 years of age, had served his apprenticeship as teacher at St Clears C. School. He was trained at the South Wales Training College, Carmarthen, 1906-8, and was war college monitor during his second year. Subsequently he became assistant master at Kings’ Norton and Kings’ Heath, Birmingham. Called to the Colours with the Worcester Imperial Yeomanry, when war broke out in 1914, he went out to France in September, 1916, and served for some months in the trenches. He was later transferred to the M.T., A.S.C., in which corps he was serving when he made the supreme sacrifice. Though evidently unconscious of the fact, there was something strangely premonitive in the headings of the two last letters he wrote home, each one being headed €œSeptember the last€ and sad to state it turned out to be €œhis last.€ Driver Evans was married.
