Another brother Lance-Corporal P. J. Rees, is in the 3/6 th Welsh at Swansea, and expects soon to go out; while a third brother, Private Emrys Rees, is with the 9 th Battalion Royal Welsh Fusiliers.
Private Rhys Rees heard that his brother Emrys was in his neighbourhood, and walked nine miles to see him, and caught him half an hour before he moved off into the trenches.
There were in the same battalion with him Privates John Edwards and David John Davies, of Tycroes, and Privates Sam Vaughan and Tom Rees, of Caerbryn.
All were well. Our visitor also states he met Driver Willie Davies, of the Square, Ammanford, when he went out on New Year's Day, and afterwards saw him in February as he was about going into action.
