  • [1867]

A volume containing humorous prose (ff. 4-16 verso) and poetry (ff. 19-33), [1867], by a young woman identifying herself as 'Angelina Workington' (f. 9), for her uncle, 'Slatey Hughes Esquire', as a memento of their visit to Llandudno and the surrounding area in July 1867.
The volume consists of a fanciful prologue (ff. 4-6), followed by equally fanciful accounts of excursions to the Great Orme (ff. 9-10 verso, 12-13 verso) and Capel Curig (ff. 14 recto-verso, 16 recto-verso), and poems entitled 'Ffos Noddyn' (ff. 19-20), 'A Growl from Gelert's Ghost' (ff. 22-25), 'The Streamlet's Song' (ff. 27-29) and 'Excelsior' (ff. 31-33). The manuscript is written mainly in black ink, with some words in red, blue, green and gold paint. In addition there is an illuminated title page (f. 2) and dedication (f. 3), with further illuminations or decorative initials on ff. 4, 8, 9, 16, 19, 22, 31; together with five pen drawings (ff. 7, 11, 15, 17, 22) and a photograph of the Great Orme, Llandudno (pasted in on f. 8). The name 'Angelina Workington' is presumed to be a pseudonym; the writer may actually be the Isabella Slater to whom the volume was gifted in 1862 (see f. 1).
