TeitlLetter from the Rev. William Ambrose ('Emrys') from Portmadoc [Porthmadog] to his cousin John Ambrose Lloyd
DisgrifiadWould very much like to have Prince Albert for the Chair prize at Swansea; it would 'tend to bring out some of us who have been resting on our shields for some time past. It would be well to avoid the appointment of two adjudicators of the same party or sect, on any subject. This was the mistake at Carnarvon. I do not mean to insinuate that Gwalchmai and Caledfryn, or either of them were led by any sectarian feeling in awarding the prize to Hwfa, but ut serves the unsuccessful candidates and their friends with a handle of which they make the best use.' 'There is a storm brewing between Nicander and his co-adjudicators. Another Aberffraw squabble.' It would be well to get Hwfa's awdl published as soon as possible.'
