Bowmen, Bridgmen, Divers, Swimmers, Placemen, Stewards, Supple Trimmers; Turners, Carters, Leaders, Drivers, Servants, Kitchenmen, and Weavers;[…]And many more—but let us ſtop! / And this fond prayer offer up: / May Erin’s ſons of ev’ry caſt, / Be Iriſhmen! from firſt to laſt! / Nor name or creed divide them!

The washermen, kitchenmen, and servants were chosen from the serfs of the estates of the house.

Hours of work (except for night porters, kitchenmen, kitchenmaids, housemaids), 120 per fortnight; night maids, housemaids, 126 per fortnight; night porters, 272 per 4-weekly period; kitchenmen, kitchenmaids, housemaids, 126 per fortnight.

Persons employed in the capacities of kitchenmen, pantrymen, scullerymen, waiters, porters (day and night), yardmen, handymen, oyster openers, waitresses, kitchenmaids, scullerymaids, and pantrymaids, are all provided for in a scale, the minimum of which is £1 and the maximum £1 12s. 6d., which is the wage for the waiter.

The last thing which the employers ask is the re-introduction into the award of a clause placed by Mr. Justice Cohen in the first award, by which it was directed that cooks and kitchenmen should mutually help each other.[…]The only answer put forward to this was, that the term “kitchenmen” was intended to include pantrymen and certain other workers. This was strongly contradicted, and the probabilities seem to me to be entirely against it; the term “kitchenman” only is used, and I must accept what the agreement says.

Youths at 19 years of age or under employed as kitchenmen shall be paid a weekly wage at the rate of not less than seventy-five per annum of the basic wage and thereafter at the relevant adult rate.
