Starting at 09.30. He gives a list of his whereabouts every hour and these remarks:-
“Engaged at the Police Station during the early part of the morning. Patrolled upper and lower Dyserth during the latter part of the morning and called at the Banks respecting advertisements likely to be found on Bank of England notes.
Patrolled Meliden and Bodrhyddan districts during the afternoon and also visited Talargoch Mines respecting complaints of damage.

I don't know if this was the Police Station in 1940.
