An Essay on the Island of Anglesey

  • NLW MS 23899E.
  • Ffeil
  • 1832

'An Essay on the Island of Anglesey', 1832, in an unidentified hand, apparently the original version submitted by the Rev. Peter Bailey Williams in the competition for an essay on the history of Anglesey at the Beaumaris Eisteddfod, 1832, winning the second prize for its author.
The essay was published in The Gwyneddion for 1832: Containing the Prize Poems, &c., of the Beaumaris Eisteddfod and North Wales Literary Society, ed. by W. Jones (London, 1839), pp. 1-97. The first prize was won by Angharad Llwyd for the work later published as A History of the Island of Mona, or Anglesey (Ruthin, 1833). Williams may have forwarded his work to the competition in the hand of an amanuensis in order to disguise the authorship from the adjudicator, his fellow diocesan cleric, the Rev. J. H. Cotton.
