| Description | General estate matters. A somewhat derogatory reference to the "Lord of Penrhos" in 22, who was either then [second] Baron Stanley of Alderley or his twin brother, the Honarable W.O.Stanley; 23 is mainly concerned with certain deviations in the course of the Bangor and Caernarvon Railway proposed by the promoters (cp.papers LLIG/300-323); 24 show that he was keeping an eye on the movements of the coal speculators down at the marches of Berw. Quite interesting is his reference to the new promotion of the Rev.E.O.Hughes from the vicarage of Llandbadrig to Llanddeiniolen; no doubt it was of advantage to "his numerous family", but E.O.H. was also one of the most powerful preachers in the diocese. |
