PERTWEE (BURRYPORT), With Preface by the Editor of The Cambrian. NOW SELLING. May be obtained at The Cambrian Office, Swansea; and from the principal booksellers in South Wales. The Book deals with the Foundation and History of the Parish Church of Pembrey, before and after the Norman Conquest, and with its Architecture, Carvings in Stone, &c. There are 23 valuable and interesting Illustrations. PRESS OPINIONS. The Western Mail says :Mr. Edward Roberts of Swansea, a gentleman who has provided the public with many instructive and original con- tributions on place-names, has just produced a most interesting history of St. Illtyd's Church, Pembrey, which is published in book form, and is copiously illustrated by Mr. H. A. Pertwee, of Burry Port, who has also dealt with the architec- tural portion of the work." The Lianelly Guardian says :-That the history of this church has been undertaken by Messrs. Roberta and Pertwee at once guarantees antiquarian research and local knowledge com- bined for the former gentleman has for many years made a speciality of the study of Welsh antiquities and place names. Such sur- vivals as heraldic carvings, burials and memorial stones, the inscriptions for which are most interesting reading, bring back to our minds the Butler family, of Dunraven and Pembrey; the Vaughans, the Mansels and the Rees's. In fact, the little brochure is a most complete collection of historical facts connected with the old Church and the district. The letterpress and illustrations are excellently printed, and much credit is due to The Cambrian :office, Swansea, for the tasteful manner of its get-up. A Torquay gentleman writes :—" The writers of the very interesting work on St. Illtyd's Church, Pembrey, which has been recently pub- lished at your office, invite discussion in your columns. They must be first congratulated on their contribution to the literature of parochial histories, and The Cambrian Newspaper Company also deserves praise :for the style in which the book has been printed and issued," PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY THE CAMBRIAN NEWSPAPER Co., LTD., SWANSEA.
