Item 636. - Rice Williams, Aberystwith, to Edwd Williams, 'The Bard', Flimstone, near Cowbridge,

Rice Williams, Aberystwith, to Edwd Williams, esq., 'The Bard', Flimstone, near Cowbridge ('try Bridgend'). He readily gave his name to Mr Pierce as a subscriber to 'Cyvrynach y Beirdd'. His mother when living, about 40 or 50 years since, informed him that she was a near relation of the addressee's. Some account of himself. Mr Pryse of Gogerddan wishes much to know the etymology and meaning of the name of his mansion; Dafydd ap Gwilim lived and died near the place, as did also Mr Lewis Morris whom the writer once when a boy had the pleasure of seeing and conversing with, but then he was not able to benefit much by LM's conversation. Address: Dr Rice Williams, MD, Aberystwith. Franked by Pryse Pryse, Faringdon.
