File NLW MS 9055E/715. - Henry Rowlands, bishop of Bangor, at Bangor to Sir John Wynn,

It is well-known that Sir John is a good governor of his country; God bless him long, for there will be 'a miss of him' whenever he is gone. There is, in his limits, an honest old gentleman named Robert ap Hugh Lloyd, who is recommended as high constable of the hundred. He has many times held the office, but has now grown heavy and sickly, and has had great losses by fire. Desires Sir John to pass Lloyd over and to appoint some other, as he can doubtless make his choice. Though Sir John stands by the most efficient, yet every man must serve his turn. The poor gentleman is kinsman to the bishop, who writes this at the solicitation of the brother, who is in the bishop's house. Thanks Sir John for enquiring after his health, and cites the proverb senectus ipsa morbus est.
