Mr. Adams and the Churchill Complaint
We have received a statement from Mr. Adams in reference to the letter of Ambrose Churchill in which the latter complained that his son left his work and volunteered, failed to pass the medical examinations and that he went back to his employer expecting to get his job again, but was refused any work or even wages due him at the time.
_______________

Nathan Churchill, son of Mr. Ambrose Churchill, Seward's Mill, worked with us last year. He didn't give us very good satisfaction. We decided not to have him any more. But this spring he came to us three times asking for a job, apparently as we were neighbors, and gave him work for the sake of his father, at $1.30 per day. His pay day was when I'd get the money when lumber was sold, same as last year.There wasn't any limit of time as to how long I would give him employment. He worked twelve days and a half; he did not give me one minute's notice that he was leaving until he left. At dinner hour he came to me ami said, what about my time. He said he was going to volunteer. I told him I couldn't help it. I had another young man here that had been down to volunteer a short while ago, but failed to pass. I had him engaged for a month, and to make disturbance he had been persuaded to go with him, which was useless for him to go. I gave Nathan his time without any hesitation. I told him I couldn't give him any money for a few days as I had to have time to get it. He didn't say anything to me about keeping his place if he failed to pass. He signed the agreement for his father to colled it, but he came back shortly after and I had another man in his place. I collected $10 for him which was the best I could do, until lumber was sold. I owe him the balance $8.25.

We are also informed that there are at present in the Newfoundland Regiment, three of the Adams' family and one in the Canadian forces, out 10 nephews of Mr. Adams, sr. It would appear therefore that the trouble about the wages and the non-taking back of Churchill was not due to th latter enlisting.

Nathan retired on his wife's birthday at the age of 75 years
