At the end are copies, in another hand, of verses entitled 'My Native Land' ('Fe gyfansoddwyd y gân hon gan Mr. Robert Jones gynt Tailor & Draper Caernarfon, yr hwn a ymfudodd ir America y flwyddyn 1839') and 'Mae Gwyrddlas Fryn' ('Cyfieithiad o There is a Green Hill Faraway'). Inset is a holograph letter from Thos William David Jones [sic], wheelwright, Llanrhaiadr, near Oswestry, [18]51 (a request for the words and tune of the 'A.B.C.').
