    Information has been received from the Record Office by Mr. James William Wynn of 15 Dale Street, Milnrow, that according to records his eldest son, Sergeant James Donald Wynn of the Intelligence Corps, was serving in Malaya when the garrison at Singapore capitulated on February 15th. Every endeavour is being made through diplomatic and other channels to obtain information concerning him and it is hoped that he is safe, although he may be a prisoner of war. Meanwhile he is posted as missing. Sergeant Wynn, who has been in the Regular Army for seven years, for the last six years has served abroad. He is twenty-five years of age and previous to joining the Army was employed at the Dale Spinning Company, Rochdale.18

The message on the card reads: " I am a prisoner of war. Don't worry. Safe and well, and I am being well treated." Warrant Officer VVynn is 25 years of age and formerly worked at the Dale Mill. He was in the Regular Army when war broke out, and has been abroad about seven years. His father, Mr. James William Wynn, lives at 15 Dale Street, Milnrow.19
