I don't know anything about Irish Army records but this may be a good place to start:  https://www.militaryarchives.ie/home

Regarding your original question about the punishment, Francis Mortimer was a British Army Reservist and so would have received an annual bounty payment. A report to the Bounty Board would presumably have put future bounty payments at risk. Perhaps it served as a warning about his future behaviour.

As you've probably seen, Francis deserted in October 1916.
