The following details in a letter were sent from Base Records to Finance Secretary on 19th March, 1919 regarding Private Arthur Hughes: The above-named deceased soldier enlisted as a single man and the first intimation of his being married was received ion a communication dated received from Mr J. H. Evans, 105 Lygon Street, North Carlton, extract of which is appended. I am writing in reference to a Report in a death column in last Tuesday s AGE July of Arthur Hughes, the husband of Mrs E, Hughes. He left her at 248 Johnston Street, Fitzroy, about 18 months ago in practically a starving way with three children; she has not heard of him until the above report. As the soldier could not be traced under the name of HUGHES the matter as referred to the A.A.G. 3rd M.D, for investigation and that Officer furnished a report dated received from Mr T. S. Kerr, Duke of Wellington Hotel, Flinders St., Melbourne, extract of which is as follows:- Hughes enlisted under the name of ARTHUR LAWSON about 2 years ago and went into Royal Park Camp.. Hughes is my wife s brother. Hughes stated to me that he was going to enlist under another names as he found that his wife had been previously married and her husband was still alive, He afterwards enlisted under the name of LAWSON. Mrs E. Hughes was communicated with from this Office under date and she subsequently furnished a Statutory Declaration and Marriage Certificate in support thereof.. A statement was made by Mrs Eliza Maud Hughes, of 540 Lygon Street, Carlton, on 23rd May, 1921 which reads I have made application to receive payment of any War Gratuity which may be payable in respect of the services of the late No Private ARTHUR HUGHES (ALIAS LAWSON) 22nd Battalion, Australian Imperial Force. In support of my claim I would state:- I was married to the soldier about twelve months previous to his enlistment. I lived with him until he deserted me. I lived with him for about twelve months. Previous to that he was paying my rent for about twelve months. During the time he was paying my rent I was living with him as his wife. I had one child by the late soldier but it was taken away from me stillborn. It is true that my previous husband was living when I married the soldier. At the time I did not know where he was or even if he was still alive as he was away from me for about eleven years. He deserted me because of his drunken habits and cruelty to me. My husband died six months after my marriage with Hughes. I produce for the Board s perusal Marriage Certificate showing my marriage to both of these men. At the time of my marriage with Dick my previous husband was dead and had been dead for four years. I believe the reason for Hughes leaving me was that he was of me and did not want to be burdened with keeping me. He enlisted as a single man. I discovered of his being in the Army through a notice of his death in the paper. I have three children, of them Dick is the father of one, my first husband is the father of the other two. I applied for a pension but did not get it. I keep myself by working for a man named Hash off Station Street, North Carlton. This brings me in 12/- per week, my daughter contributes also to my support. The authorities told me at the Pension Office, the reason I did not received a pension was that there was a wife of the late soldier living. The decision of the Board Claimant not eligible. (Note Dick being the previous surname of Eliza Maud Hughes)
5 Private Arthur Lawson was entitled to British War Medal & the Victory Medal. A Memorial Scroll & Memorial Plaque were also sent to Untraceables pending investigations into the next-of-kin. (The Plaque was embossed incorrectly as Arthur Hughes but should have been the name he served under Arthur Lawson.) A notation on the front of the Service Record file for the late Private Arthur Lawson reads I have examined 3rd MD Gratuity File which discloses Mrs E. M. Hughes not to be deceased widow, but his de-facto wife of one years standing. She has no claims to Gratuity & no claims to War Medals. War Medals to Untraceables.
