Letter from the Rev. William Ambrose ('Emrys') from Portmadoc [Porthmadog] to his cousin John Ambrose Lloyd 'Your letter has satisfied me that I am not to have the p. at least from Clwydf[ardd]. He would have given you the information at once if Idwal had been the favourite ... If there is one much superior to mine it must be a first rate awdl.' 17 August 1863
