Eitem 175. - Daniel Evans (Daniel Ddu), to Taliesin Williams,

[Daniel Evans] 'D[aniel]l Ddu', to Mr Taliesin Williams, Merthyr Tydvil. He cannot but agree with the addressee regarding the Eisteddfodau. When does the addressee suppose he had the announcement that he had been appointed one of the adjudicators of the poetical compositions at the Powys Eisteddfod? - a week before the day of the Eisteddfod. He sent straight away to say that he would have nothing to do with the work. He is much afraid that Walter Davies and Robert Davies would not assume the task of adjudicating the work of the addressee and his fellow-competitors on 'Y Dydd Byrraf ' now after some kind of an opinion has been given once. The writer's own views in the matter. (In a note in English on the back he states that he is very sorry to hear that the addressee's venerable old father is so poorly).
