TitleLetter from Lord Penrhyn at Penrhyn Castle, Bangor to P.A.Lloyd.
DescriptionFears a possible renewal of the disputes. Lord Penrhyn was engaged all of yesterday with Mr. Barker, Mr. Francis and Mr. Morris, was endeavouring to tell the quarrymen the terms of the agreement bewteen Lloyd and the committee of the Union. Would have been better to have told them various points before being agreed to, and they complain that they were excluded from making remarks on some subjects. They estimate a loss of income at about £30,000 - £40,000 a year. Does not have any sympathy for the 'starving multitude' as they have voluntarily put themselves in that position. Is sending George (Penrhyn) a copy of all the letters so that he knows what is happening. The Union committee published the first part of the last document in the Liverpool paper, without any explanation of the words used.
