A precedent book, 1793-1823, probably compiled by Rees Davies of Swansea, under-sheriff of Glamorgan in 1793-1794, with additions by Wyndham Lewis, under-sheriff in 1809-1810, and others. The volume contains legal processes, 1766-1823, mainly of Glamorgan and co. Brecon interest, relating to bankruptcy, highway repairs, actions of trespass, trespass upon the case, debt, etc., and includes an application and licence to perform 'Tragedies, Comedies, Interludes, Operas, Plays & Farces' in Brecon for sixty days between November 1792 and February 1793 (ff. 47-48); a case concerning the appointment of a non-Welsh speaker to the vicarage of Aberysgir, co. Brecon, 1774 (ff. 70-2 verso); and costs of the under-sheriff of co. Radnor in executing a convicted horse-thief, 1785 (ff. 91 verso-92 verso). A copy of a treatise, written [c. 1750], on the practice of the court of Chancery in the Brecon circuit of the court of Great Sessions has, with the exception of the first page (f. 17 verso), been cut out leaving only stubs.
