Letter from E. Vincent Evans, 64 Chancery Lane,

The Honourable Society of Cymmrodorion will always recall with gratitude the 'splendid and disinterested work' which John Herbert Lewis has done for it in the past. Thanks for the donation to the Society's Records Fund. The House of Commons is in a pickle.

Letter from Ernest Evans, House of Commons,

Thanks for message of congratulations. Some of the Labour members are agitating for the abolition of University representation. There is much of interest at Westminster 'in the opening days of a new Parliament - especially when there is also a new Government in office'. The Ministry has not begun well. Expects Lloyd George and Churchill to be 'the two dominating figures in the Parliament'. There is greater unity in the Liberal camp and the Liberal MPs attend more regularly.

Letter from John Owen, Shrewsbury,

Thanks for the copy of Plenydd's Cofiant. There has been a marked 'decay in Temperance speaking' in north Wales except among the ladies. Local News. Mrs Foylkes Jones, 'one of the ablest women of her time in Wales', was buried at Machynlleth last Monday. Describes in detail 'Salop and its Celebrities'. It seems that Wales has permeated Shropshire more than is generally thought'. Plans to go to Aberystwyth tomorrow to see the National Library.

Letter from Alfred [--], Great Marlow,

Domestic news. Describes what is going on in London at the moment, and outlines his forthcoming engagements. Refers to the bankrupcy of Sir R. J. Thomas. Gives news of members of his family. Discusses the O. M. Edwards Memorial Fund and the Owen Glyndwr Memorial. Is to have an article published in The Christian World. Discusses books he is reading, and describes a recent Licensing Committee meeting. Wishes John Herbert Lewis well in the future.

Letter from John Owen, Cressington,

Thanks for being allowed to read the letters about India and its problems. Discusses various views on India. Describes religious life at home - 'There is a great deal of uneasiness in the ecclesiastical sphere'.

Letter from H. A. L. Fisher, Oxford,

Thanks for Barker's memorandum. Gives his own views on India. Discusses Marthe's book. Is now delighting in George Trevelyan's new volume on Blenheim. Has seen much of Lloyd George recently - 'Physically he is as wonderful as ever, but he is much depressed and perplexed about politics'. L. G. does not expect the present government to tackle unemployment. Much enjoyed his American trip. Would JLH like him to visit Plas Penucha?.

Letter from Gwilym Roberts, Buenos Aires,

Hopes John Herbert Lewis's condition will improve. Has collected Spanish and English newspapers which give an account of events during the revolution. Recounts the scene from one of the balconies of Government House after the fall of the Trigoyen regime. Is pleased with the progress of the Provisional Government, but laments the absence of a civil service as in Britain. Domestic news. Encloses a snapshot of the visit of the Prince of Wales to the country.
