The Great War ‘Irish Rebellion’ D.S.C. group of four awarded to Lieutenant W. H. A. Bee, Royal Naval Reserve, who was awarded a D.S.C. and an M.I.D. for his command of H.M.T. Lord Heneage, which ship played a vital part in the capture of the German Auxiliary Cruiser Aud off the south-west coast of Ireland where she was due to rendezvous with Sir Roger Casement to deliver her cargo of 20,000 rifles, 1,000,000 rounds of ammunition and ten machine-guns to aid the imminent Easter Rising Distinguished Service Cross, G.V.R., hallmarked London 1918; 1914-15 Star (Lieut. W. H. A. Bee. R.N.R.); British War and Victory Medals, with M.I.D. oak leaf (Lieut. W. H. A. Bee. R.N.R.) mounted for display, some contact wear, therefore nearly very fine (4) £4,000-£5,000 --- Importation Duty This lot is subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the UK --- --- D.S.C. London Gazette 27 June, 1917: The original recommendation submitted by the Vice-Admiral at Queenstown states: ‘Assisted in the capture of the S.S. Aud on 21/22 April 1916.’ M.I.D. London Gazette 21 April 1917. The original recommendation states: ‘Capture of German auxiliary off coast of Ireland on 21 April 1915. Did good work in keeping the vessel in sight until she was brought to by the Bluebell.’ In April 1916, information had been received at the Admiralty that a landing of arms was to be expected on the west coast of Ireland for the Sinn Feiners, and that Sir Roger Casement was believed to be on his way to meet with the arms ship. Casement, the ex-British official who was the prime instigator of German supported rebellion, was bound for Ireland in U22 to rendezvous with the steamer Aud, a German ship disguised as the Norwegian steamer of the same name. The rendezvous where Aud had arranged to meet Casement's submarine was one mile north-west of Inishtooskert, an uninhabited island at the north-west end of Tralee Bay, Co. Kerry, and here the steamer, with her cargo of arms arrived in the late afternoon of 20 April, 1916. Here the Aud waited and waited but nothing happened. No submarine. No Casement. Finally, at 1.30 am, Aud anchored in the shadows of Inishtooskert to await the dawn of Good Friday. Meanwhile, on the Thursday night Lieut-Commander Weisbach in U22 with Casement reached the Inishrooskert rendezvous, and from a distance sighted the dark outline of the anchored Aud, however, unfortunately for them, the submarine mistook this outline for a British destroyer and withdrew. Finally, Casement despairing of Aud's arrival acted independently and was landed with two companions on the beach by means of a small collapsible boat which had been secured to the submarine's upper deck. Early on Good Friday the deserted boat, wherein lay revolvers and ammunition was discovered by a local man and within hours Casement had been captured. Meanwhile, earlier that morning the Aud was approached by the armed trawler Setter II (Skipper John Donaldson, R.N.R.) which came alongside and boarded. Unfortunately, Donaldson was bluffed by Lieut. Karl Spindler of the Aud and his subsequent search revealed only pots and pans as shown in the cargo manifest. Soon after 1 pm Spindler had another shock when he saw a small steamer approaching at speed with a gun on the forecastle. This was the armed trawler Lord Heneage, commanded not by a skipper, but by Lieutenant W. H. A. Bee, R.N.R., a 56 year-old veteran of the Merchant Service. Bee had learnt from Loop Head signal station that a steamer was hovering suspiciously about the entrance of Tralee Bay and flying the signal ‘Stop at once’ immediately gave chase to the Aud which had hurriedly weighed anchor and got under way to the westward in something of a panic. The Aud was fleeting for her life and exceeding the limit of safety. 'More steam!' ordered Spindler. 'Captain,' replied his Chief Engineer, 'if we go on like this the boilers will burst. The steam is long past the red mark.' She was doing two or three knots more than Lord Heneage so that whilst the latter opened fire at long range, nothing could be done to stop the fugitive heading clear of land into the wide Atlantic. However, at 4.30 pm, a signal from Lord Heneage was received by H.M.S. Zinnia and H.M.S. Bluebell and these two ships hastened towards the spot from different points of the compass. Bluebell at last sighted the Aud and at 6.15 pm caused her to stop and ordered her to proceed to Queenstown. Spindler complied but not before testing the patience of Lieut. Hood in Bluebell who was compelled to drop a shell over the German's bow. Next day, however, when these two vessels were just outside Queenstown Harbour the Aud suddenly stopped engines and lowered boats into which every German clambered after which followed an explosion, the gun-runner bursting into flames and fragments till she sank. Spindler had used the bombs and fuses which had been destined for the Sinn Feiners to destroy his own vessel. The associated capture of Sir Roger Casement is well documented and resulted in his being removed to London, tried and hanged for treason. Lieutenant William Henry Askew Bee was born in Liverpool on 26 April 1860 and served more than 36 years at sea. He joined the service in 1884 as a Deck Hand and by 1888 passed as Master of Home Trade Passenger Ships. From 1890 he served consistently as Master on more than a dozen ships. Following the Aud incident, Lieutenant Bee served with Galway Trawlers in mine-sweeping and patrol and rescue operations (Swept Channels refers). He retired after the war to live in Barrow-in-Furness and died on 9 March 1940. Sold with two large files of research including detailed articles on Lieutenant Bee’s exploits published in the OMRS Journal and Medal News.

The scarce ‘between the wars’ Submariner’s B.E.M. group of nine awarded to Chief Petty Officer F. J. Jolly, Royal Navy, whose bravery contributed in no small part to saving the life of his crew, when L12 collided with H47 off Milford Haven, 9 July 1929. In an accident that cost 24 lives, Jolly was conspicuous for ‘his action with the Coxswain in closing the lower Conning Tower hatch and for his subsequent behaviour... whilst the submarine was cleared of chlorine, in which work he persisted until practically unconscious.’ He re-engaged for the Second War, and was twice mentioned in despatches for services with the minelayer H.M.S. Teviot Bank British Empire Medal, (Military) G.V.R. (J.7719 C.P.O. Frederick John Jolly. R.N.); 1914-15 Star (J.7719. F. J. Jolly. L.S., R.N.); British War and Victory Medals (J.7719 F. J. Jolly.

Cyclops.) mounted court-style as worn, Great War awards slightly worn, therefore generally nearly very fine (9) £1,800-£2,200 --- Importation Duty This lot is subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the UK --- --- B.E.M. London Gazette 3 June 1930: ‘Chief Petty Officer Jolly. To be considered for “Gallantry” Medal and failing that noted for Meritorious Medal. For his action with the Coxswain in closing lower Conning Tower hatch [of Submarine L12] and for his subsequent behaviour and example to the crew whilst the submarine was cleared of chlorine, in which work he persisted until practically unconscious.’ M.I.D. London Gazette 14 January 1941 and 1 July 1941. The above B.E.M. award was given for Jolly’s gallant conduct when his submarine L12 catastrophically collided with another British submarine, H47, on 9 July 1929. The details are taken from ADM1/8746, which provides the official report on the collision written by Lieutenant-Commander H. K. Oram, L12’s commanding officer. An article written on Oram, gives the following on the tragic episode: ‘On July 9, 1929, L12 together with L14 sailed from Lamblash on a training exercise bound for St. Ives Bay. They were accompanied by the depot ship Alecto. At the same time, the submarine H47 was heading for the Irish sea to continue a series of independent exercises. Shortly before 8 am, Joe Oram left the bridge to have his breakfast and passed over the watch to Sub Lieutenant J. A. S. Wise with H47 about 2 miles away. Sub Lieutenant Wise kept taking bearings of H47 and drew the conclusion that both submarines were on a collision course. He was about to summon the captain when Lieutenant R. S. G. Green, RNR arrived on the bridge. Lieutenant Keen passed word down to his captain that H47 was attempting to cross their bows, and not receiving a reply altered course. Lieutenant R. J. Gardner, commanding officer of H47, seeing L12 swinging to starboard and believing that a collision was imminent, ordered an immediate alteration in course and sounded several blasts on H47’s whistle. With L12’s bow overlapping H47, Lieutenant Keen ordered motors full astern. Joe Oram, hearing two blasts on L12’s whistle and feeling the motors going astern, hurried to the bridge and about 20 seconds later the bows of L12 sliced into H47 at right angles on the port side just above the foremost control room bulkhead.’ With the two submarines locked together, Oram’s report offers further details of the crew’s plight: ‘The Conning Tower upper and lower hatches were open and a flexible Sperry repeater compass lead was led up to the Tower. In the Gun Tower the starboard hatch was properly shut but the port upper hatch, though closed down, was not clipped. The submarine then took up an alarming angle of approximately 50 degrees down by the bow and the crew were left hanging from overhead valves or thrown to the foremost ends of the compartments. All moveable gear broke away, and, in the Engine Room, a big end brass fell the length of the compartment. The impression in the minds of all was that the submarine was diving at great speed. In spite of the extreme angle Engine Room Artificer 3rd Class H. J. R. Hoggett unlocked and actually succeeded in freeing the drop keel. Chief Petty Officer W. F. A. Betty, the Coxswain, and Chief Petty Officer F. J. Jolly, one of the instructional staff, got the lower Conning Tower hatch closed on to the Sperry lead, but before they managed to do this a great deal of water came into the Control Room. Water continued to spurt in past the Sperry lead, at apparently great pressure. Chief Petty Officer Betty was jambed against the W/T Cabinet by the hatch lever pressing on his chest and was in considerable pain until he was released.’ Oram and the rest of the bridge party were at that point swept into the sea, and it was only the quick reactions of a crew member in closing the bridge hatch that prevented an even greater tragedy occurring. Both submarines plunged beneath the waves, and at about 40 feet L12’s buoyancy pulled her free and she quickly started to rise to the surface. None of this was apparent below deck, as the remaining crew of L12 battled on: ‘The First Lieutenant and four or five others were standing on the closed water-tight door at the forward end of the Crew space, and could see an avalanche of water pouring in from the Control Room. The lights continued to burn but several blow outs were noticed as the water reached the switchboards. After an unknown interval of time the submarine gave a slight lurch and quickly settled on an even keel. In the opinion of everyone she was on the bottom. This illusion was understandable in the Control Room, as water was still spurting in from the Conning Tower as it drained. Thinking they were on the bottom the Engine Room remained shut off. The First Lieutenant with the particular assistance of Hoggett, Jolly, King and Fry successfully blew Z internal and put the fore hydroplanes “Hard to rise.” He was just going to order the motors “Ahead” when Chief Petty Officer Jolly noticed that the depth gauge was registering 5 feet only. Not believing this the First Lieutenant opened up the deep depth gauge. Leading Seaman Reynolds had by now discovered that the Gun Tower was out of water and passed the news to the Control Room. All men forward, with the exception of about 5 hands who remained with the First Lieutenant, were ordered on to the upper deck. Several switchboard fires had broken out and an attempt to put these out with Pyrenes failed. Eventually the First Lieutenant put out the fires by breaking the Selector switch. This put the submarine in complete darkness as the Police light resistances had already blown out.’ The vast majority of the crew by this point had been ordered to the upper deck, with the exception of the First Lieutenant and a small band of others including Jolly. Chlorine was by now very strong in the Crew space and Control Room, and gas masks were donned by those attempting to disperse the gas. It was at this juncture, with L14 now in attendance along with H.M.S. Alecto, that Jolly succumbed to the effects of the gas. Surgeon Panckridge, the medical officer for H.M.S. Alecto, submitted the following report on Jolly: ‘This rating was seen by me on the bridge of L12 at 11.45 on the 9th July. He was cyanosed, coughing and vomiting. He was suffering from chlorine gas poisoning. He was removed from L12 at 12.30 and taken on board H.M.S. Alecto, when he continued to v...
