RRUDDLAN. XIII. Bennod o lilin y Plwyf.- Y ffarm nesaf y caf alw sylw y darlletiydd ati yw yr Abbey (Mynachlo^, yn Gymraeg). Plasnewydd v byddeta ni yn ei galw.

Y mae mab a merch yn byw yn hapus yn Abbey House, wedi cael yr addewid, a 'rwyf vn siwr Dad oes neb.yn y plwyf yn foddlawn eu colli am lawer o flynyddoedd eto. Yr wyf yn sicr na ddywedaf ddim allan o fylle wrth ddweyd mai John Roberts oedd y ffarmwr goreu yn y plwyf; ie, mi ddywedaf nad oedd ei well yn Nvffrjn Clwyd. Dyn iach, cadarn, heb fod yn fawr nac yn fychan, yn gwis-L) i elos pen glnn, cot pig fain, ac esgidiao, tipyn o o war ganddo, catnrao go fras, ac yn cerdded yn frysiog, heb ddim diogi mewn migwrn nac asgwrn ynddo. Yr oedd wedi ei dempro yn o uchel- fel y I'yddem yn arfer dweyd, ac yn hawdd ei gyffroi. Byddai yn hawdd jjwybod pan fyddai rhywnn wedi ei ddigio: mi fyddai ei het yn ei lygaid a'i nchau wedi gotwog, a tendied pob un oedd o dano ei hun y diwrnod hwnw; byddai yn gweled rliywbeth allan o le ym mbob dyn a bogyn, ond tratioeth yn all right, a bytb yn edliw dim. Rhwng pob busnet- oedd ganddo mi fyddai yn cadw cymaint o weithwyr 3. haner y plwyf fedrai ddim goddef gweled neb allan o waith. Yr oedd vn arfer d od ben bore trwy y dref wrth fyn'd i'r yard glo, neu i'r morfa, ac yn ami iawn byddai baner dwsin neu ychwaneg, druain, yn metha cael diwrsod o waith yo sefyll yn segnr wrth y Groes yma. Gofynai iddynt, 'Allan o honi ydycb chwi, ddynion bach '?' Ie, meiatar," fyddai yr wttfbiad.

Yr oedd yrhan fwyaf o'r eglwys y y 21 yn gwerton llefrith ar y Sol, ae f, ddywedir iddo ea tori allan bob un o honynt. Nid dyn an peth, fel y byddid yn arfer dweyd, oedd John Roberts na, yr oedd gauddo lawer o heyrn yn y tan,a phob chware teg iddo hefyd, fe daliodd hwy heb losgi llawer. Yroedd yn biagn ac yn uarllaw cwrw da. ac yn arfer eyflenwi Ilawer o dai. Gwedd o fulod fyddai yn cario y cwrw, a dau ful rhagorol oedd- ynt hefyd; Tobi a Thos oedd eu henwan.

Yr oedd gan Jofcn riOo«fts longau yn cario yn ol a blaen adeiladodd ddwy long i mi gofio am danynt- 'Lord Mostyn' a'r 'Abbey.'

Yr wyt yn codo ganddo un o'r enw Abel Williams, o Abergele, yn glere-un o'r dynio-n ysgafnaf ar ei droed a welais yn fy oes. Byddai yn arfer d'od mewn awr o amser o bont Abergele i bont Rhnddlan-pnm milldir o ffordd, bob bore. Yr oedd John Roberts yn gymydog da, ac fe gadwodd ben aml'i ffarmwr. Cof genyf am uu yn neilldaol, yr hwn oodd wedi cael rhybudd i fyned i ffwrdd, druan. Aeth ef ac un neu ddan i eiriol drosto, ond 'doedd dim yn tycio, a phaD wflodd yntau hynoy, meddai, O eisiau Brian svdd, dyma hwy i chwi,' ac yna tynodd god allan yn llawn o aur melyn. Dywed- odd fy hjsbysydd wrthyf ei fod yn dychmygu y y codaid aur i un o'r mangles fyddai yn tyfu ar ei ffarm. Wedi hyn fe gafodd y gwr ei ffarm eto. Yr oedd John Roberts yn ffarier da iawn at esgyrn a doluriau ar anifeiliaid a dynion. Cof genyf am facbgen oedd wedi torri ei fraich, ac yr oedd y doctoiiaid am ei thorri ffwrdd. Ond fe aeth John .hoberts yno i gael goiwg arni, ac meddai, Cym- erwch ofal na tborrwch chwi mo fraich y bachgen, os na fedrweh cbwi ei fendio fo mi wna i.' ac felly y ba hofyd. Collad fawr gafodd yr ardal ar ei ol yn y cyfeiriad yma, fel Ilawer cyfeiriad arall Eglwyswr selog oedd ef, ond ym mhell o fod yn rhagfarnilyd tuag at enwadau eraill. Yr oedd Mrs Roberts yn ferch y Shop Isaf, ac wedi ei dwyn i fynu befo'r Methodistiaid. Bu hi farw yn wraig gymbarol ieuangc; ond fe gafodd ef yr addewid, a mwy. Mae yn debyg nad aeth neb i'f pridd ag y gellir dweyd am dano gvda mwy o briodoldeb, fod priddellaa v dvffryn yn felus iddo, ddim gwell nag' ef. Y mae y ddau yn gorwedd yn dawel ym mynwent isaf Llanelwy. Heddwch i'w llwch -(I'w barhau.)

WHAT A TIMELY USE WOULD DO. Consumption implies consuming, decaying, wasting away. Hence, any form of disease that shows decay or pasting of any of the bodily powers, without the ability to convert the food, which may be taken, into fresh power to arrest the progress of this decline, is Consumption. A timely use of Gwilym Evans' Quinine Bitters, the Vegetable Tonic, to waken up the bodily powers to new life, would arrest the disease, and, indeed, banish it from the system. The impoverished blood in the human system may be made rich in all the elements of vitality, bringing strength to the system, freedom from pain to the body, and comfort to the home, by Tiginc, Gwilym Evans' Quinine Bitters. When Dyspepsia holds its cruel sway, the an digested food lies like a big lamp in the stomaob, causing iutentw paiu aod a beusallou of buaviuety Fermentation ensues, generating sour wind, with local irritation.

Daeth Llaw(idei tiI** i adnabyddiaeth a Nathan Dyfed tua'r flwyddyn 1847, ac o'r amser hwnw hyd ddydd yr ysgariad mawr," dywed, bu Nathan a minau yn gyfeillion mynwesol, ac ni chododd cwmwl ar ein cyfeillgarwch." Brodor o Lanhoidy, yn Nyfed, oedd gwrthddrych yr ysgrif ddyddorol hon, ond yn Merthyr y treuliodd y rhan fwyaf o'i oes, ac fel un o fechgyn ly Merthyr" yr adwaenid ef gan y frawdoliaeth farddol. Yr oedd cewri llenyddol ar y ddaear yn y dyddiau hyny, ac nid rhyw silod man. Yr oedd Natnan Dyted yn berftkith gyfarwydd a'r Pedwar- mesur-ar-hugain. Fel hyn y dywed awdwr galluog yr ysgrif: Ar hyn o bwnc yr oedd braidd yn anffaeledig. Yr oedd yn berfl'aith gartrefol yn mhob ffurf o gynghanedd Grymus- der yn hytrach na melusder, yn y cyffredin, oedd yn hynodi ei gyfansoddiadau-gafael gawrairld vn ei bwnc, a synwyr addfed yn ei ymdriniad ag ef. Nid oedd yn hynod am ei ddarfelydd, oddigerth pa.n fyddai yn ymwneyd a. thestynau digrif a difyrna; ac yr oedd ei arabedd a'i ddigrifwch mewn cymdeithas gydnaws braidd yn anghyd- marol. r oedd ganddo yst«">r o storiau, ttraeth- ebau, ac adgofion braidd anhysbyddadwy, a hyny heb ymylu ar ddim gwael nae anweddaidri." Ond rhaid ymatal. er cryfed y brofedigaeth i ddifynu. Nid ydym yn meddwl y camsyniem pe dywedem mai fel englynwr yr oedd yn tra rhagori. Cyfan- soddodd lawer yn y mesurau rhyddion, ac amryw farwnadau gyda'r pethau goreu a gyfansoddodd. Dywed ysgrifenwr yr ysgrif am dano: "Fel eisteddfodwr nid yn ami y bu ei fatb. Nid llawer o eisteddfodau a gynhaliwyd yn ystod yr haner can' mlynedd diweddaf nad oedd efe jrn bresenol. Geilw Llawdden sylw at un nodwedd arbenig arall yn ei hen gyfaill, sef dawn neillduol i ysgrifenu llythyrau doniol, gwreiddiol, amrywiol, a dyddorol; a dywed fod Nathan yn hyn yn rhagori ar braidd bob Cymro a adnabyddodd erioed. Rhoddir yma rai difyniadau o'i lythyrau.

" The Children's Bill."
The Children's Bill." A good deal of flap doodle has been written and spoken about the bill to keep young children from the environment of the public house." But after all the bill does not keep the kids away from the pub. It does do one thing. It encourages the bottling trade at the expense of the jug cus- tom. The following is the full text of the Child- ren's Bill Every holder of a licence who knowingly sella or delivers, or allows any person to sell or deliver, save at the residence or working place of the purchaser, any description of intoxicating liquor to any person under the age of 14 years, for con. sumption by any person on or off the premises, excepting such intoxicating liquors as are sold and delivered in (orked and sealed vessels in quantities not let's than one reputed pint for con- sumption off the premises only, shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding 40s for the first offence, and not exceeding £5 for any subsequent offence, and every person who knowingly sends any person under the age of 14 yeats to any place where intoxicating liquors are sold or delivered or dis- tributed for the purpose of obtaining any descrip. tion of intoxicating -liquor, excepting for con- sumption by one person on or off the premises, shall be liable to liKe penalties. Nothing in this Act shall prevent the em- ployment by a licensed person of a member of his family or his servant or apprentice as a messenger to deliver intoxicating liquor. The term corked means closed with a plug or stopper, whether it is made of cork or wood or glass, or some other material. The expression sealed means secured with any substance with- out the destruction of which the cork, plug, or stopper cannot be withdrawn. The Act shall come into operation on January 1, 1902." n

ST. ASAPH PETTY SESSIONS.…
ST. ASAPH PETTY SESSIONS. MONDAY.—-Before Major Birch (in the chair), Dr Davies, Messrs R C Enyon, and Peter Roberts. Sad Case of Child Neglect. James Edwards, a plasterer, of Chapel House, Mill Street, St Asaph, was charged with neglecting his child, Margaret Ann Edwards, aged 91 years. He pleaded not 2 guilty. Mr J Lloyd appeared for the Society for Preventing Cruelty to Children, and said defendant was earning 25s a week. His child, Margaret Ann, was only about 9 years old. The defendant was a plasterer, and as a rule left his house about six o'clock in the morning, and did not return until about 10 in the evening. According to his instructions the child was left alone in the house all through the day. A little thing of her tender years could not look after herself properly, and when the Inspector of the Society first saw the girl she was not properly clothed, fed, nor cleaned in fact she was in a fearful state She was suffering from exzema, the result of being dirty. It appeared that the defendant, instead of looking after his child, spent his time in public-houses, and the money he ought to have spewt in food and clothing went in drink. Defendant seemed to have lost all sense of parental duty towards his child. To make matters worse the little girl was without a mother, she having died about nine months ago. Inspector William Jones, of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, said in consequence of complaints he visited defen- dant's house on the 2nd of May last. Defendant was not at home, but he found the girl in ques- tion with her brother, who was about 17 years of age. The child was filthy, poorly clad, and poorly nourished. The house was in a state of disorder and very filthy. The bedding was dirty, and evidently had not been washed for along time. The child was suffer- ing through being dirty, hungry, and poorly clad. Witness saw the father and called his attention to the condition of his daughter. Defendant told witness that he was paying a Mrs Jones, who lived next door, to look after the child when he was away. Witness visited the house several times after, but there was little or no improvement. In July he saw the girl with Mrs Jones. The child's head was tilled with vermin. Oil the 16th of I August witness saw the little girl again in a filthy state. Her head was covered with scales and eczema, and she was badly nourished and poorly clad. Her body was black with dirt,. The house was filthy, and the stench was almost unbearable and enough to knock anyone dowu. Witness called in Dr Lloyd, who examined the child. He did not see the father that day, but the next time witness saw him he was in a public-house with his little girl. On the 20th of last month he saw the child at the house of Mrs Walsh. It was much better, and had been properly cleaned and dressed. Witness had never seen anything in che house but bread. By Defendant The child did not have clean clothes on when he visited it the first few times. Defendant Why, she had clean clothes on every week. Ellen Jones, of Chapel House, Mill Street, St Asaph, said she was the wife of a carter, and lived next door to the defendant. He was a man rather fond of drink. Defendant usually left his home to go to work about 6 in the morning, and returned sometimes late at night. Witness took pity on the child and gave her articles of clothing. Witness did not feed the girl, but washed her clothing. The child had clean things on every week. Witness knew that the child's head was covered with vermin, and she advised the father to have her hair cut off, and witness gave the child parafhn to wash her hair. The child was as clean as her own children about the skin. Witness used to clean defendant's house before his wife died, but not since. She had never been inside the house, so she could not tell whether it was dirty or not. By the Chairman She was sure the child had clean clothes on every week. P.C. Parry, stationed at St Asaph, said he visited the defendant's house with the Inspector on the 16th of last month. He saw the child and found her head covered with vermin and sores. The house was almost unbearable to go into, and the smell was awful. The clothes were fairly clean, but the child was dirty. The Chairman Are you going to call Dr Lloyd ? He is a very important witness. Mr J Lloyd Unfortunately Dr Lloyd is unable to be present. He has sent a note to say he is away. The Chairman What have you to say Edwards in answer to the charge ? Edwards Nothing, gentlemen, I will leave it to you. Mrs Walsh here stepped forward and showed the magistrates the little girl, who appeared well dressed, clean, and must have been .veil looked after since she had been from her father's house, The Chairman Are you going to look after the little girl, Mrs Walsh Mrs Walsh Yes, sir, I will look after her like a mother. She has altered a lot since I have had her. I send her to school, and she appears quite happy. The Chairman I am glad to hear it. Are you going to pay this good woman for looking after your child, Edwards ? Edwards Yes, sir, I am paying at present. The Chairman Well, we consider the case has been proved against you. You have neglected your child when it was your duty to look after it. You will have to pay a, fine of 5s and the costs, RI 14s 6d. Time was allowed for payment.
ST. ASAPH BREWSTER SESSIONS.
thus givinsr one licensed house for every 168 ot the inhabitants. Two innkeepers have been convicted during the year, viz, Mary Titmus, Black Inn, Rhuddlan, (Food and Drugs Act), and was fined 20s and 25s 9d costs Joseph Ainsworth, Hand Inn St Asaph, for opening on Sunday and he was fined E,3 and 37s 9d costs. Twelve persons have been convicted for drunkenness, being a decrease of three as compared with the previous year. After the Superintendent's report had been read the Chairman asked it there were many back-doors to the licensed houses in the division. Sergeant Langdon said there were back doors to nearly everyone. The Chairman said the Magistrates objected most strongly to back-doors. If there are any publicans present, we wish to give them this hint-that they must place this matter before their landlords. The Chairman addressing Mr Joseph Ainsworth said you have been convicted for opening your house on Sunday. We wish to warn you of your future conduct, If you, or any other license holder is convicted in the future, we shall endorse your license or that of any other license I holder. It is the feeling of the Magistrates that there are too many public houses in the division considering the population. I notice there is one public house to every 168 of the inhabitants. All licenses were renewed.
