The officers were allowed out on parole, to stay with local gentry. There was a real threat of invasion, and a suspicion of spies, because not all Welsh people were against the French Revolution. Throughout the 18 th and 19 th centuries, men were carried off by the notorious ‘Press Gangs’, to fight in other parts of the British Empire, frequently never to see their homes or loved ones again, or to return home injured – to beg on the streets of our market towns.
