TitleLease of 1784 again examined, 1848-1866, when the estate was held by Col. E.G.D. Pennant, son-in-law of G.H.D. Pennant [the Colonel became Lord Penrhyn in 1866].
DescriptionThe Colonel's case was luminously presented by his agent James Wyatt, who seems to have gone to immense toruble in reading the ancient docts. at Penrhyn, and mastering their historical significance. The situation was not changed, but these 27 papers are made considerably more interesting by the series of letters to Col. Pennant from mr. Wyatt on the subject of Crown rents, the long opinion stated by counsel Richard Couch on April 21, 1858, and two important letters from Col. Pennant himself, dated July 8, 1860, and Nov. 17, 1862.
