| Description | Two debtors of his are not to be pressed unduly and their property distrained, but allowed time to pay. Special care to be taken of his "Arca Botanica", one imperfect copy to be completed, one copy to go to Dinam, the other to Dr Owen. "The Welsh Botanology" to be distributed as extensively as possible "at any rate it can be done;" regarding the books on Botany, they are to go to Robert Brisco Owen, son of Dr Owen Owen, who afterwards became M.D., lived at Haulfre, and died in 1883 (Pedigrees, 51);but he is not to allow them to go out of the family, rather "to leave them to whichever of them seems most to study the Science." Nor was Mr. Pennant's picture to go out of the family [whether it was Thomas Pennant of Downing or the David Pennant of Downing who corresponded with H.D., is not very clear]; reference to Mr. Davies's own portraits by the painter Jones - one copy is for Sir. Robert Williams of Friars [half-brother of the seventh and last Viscount Bulkeley]. the other to be framed and sent to Mrs Jane Owen. Several personal possessions to be "drawn for" by Mrs Prichard, Mrs. Jane Owen, and Dr. Owen. |
