The 'Itinerarium Kambriae' and 'Descriptio Kambriae' of Giraldus Cambrensis, written on vellum, with initial capitals, etc., in red and green.

A pamphlet entitled 'The Grievances of the Church in Wales', written in about 1765 (see p. 141) by Evan Evans (Ieuan Fardd). At the end of the volume is 'Tâl Diolch i Dduw am y Bibl yn Gymraeg . circa 1600' by Sir Thomas Johns.
This pamphlet is one of considerable importance and throws much light on the history of the English church in Wales in the middle of the eighteenth century. The unquestionable patriotism of the writer, coupled with his criticisms throughout the text, which seem to be based on authenticated facts, point to the probability that the writer is Ieuan Fardd himself.

Correspondence and papers, 1917, concerning the implementation of national service in Cardiganshire and the work of the county's national service committee.

He is glad to hear of his father's engagement in Carmarthen. Ifor is sure it will be a big affair and expects his father will be glad to see Uncle Harry once more. Ifor asks after the Professor and his family; he would much like to see them again but fears it will be some time before he does so. He also asks for his best remembrances to be passed onto a Mr and Mrs Jones; Ifor asks if Mr Jones would correct an English composition(once a month) for him. He writes that he has not received his father's order; the postal service being very slow. Ifor proposes staying in Germany until the middle of November, which will cut his French stay to 2 or 3 weeks. Instead of going to Tours which is far from the German frontier, he shall split his time in France between Nancy and Lille. He will then come home via Dover. He states that his new route will be more economical than going to Paris. He submits his plans for consideration. Ifor also details his planned work; he hopes to be able to read German fairly well in a months time. He has been in bed since Monday evening due to a sore throat and ear ache. Ifor is much better today but not quite 100%.

Sent from Nuremberg. Writes he was pleased to get his letter yesterday and write he was sorry to hear of poor Harry. He then explains that the picture on the card depicts one of the gates of the town. Ifor will be departing for Regensburg today at 2.00pm. He asks for any news about war between Russia and Germany.

ILE thanks his parents for their letter. He is in the concentration camp at Ruhleben, not far from Berlin. He is well and buys something extra to eat. He is overjoyed that Dale & Hughes are here as well. Writes every Monday.

Starts with Ifor wishing his parents a happy new year. He is wondering why I has not received a parcel sent to him through Mr Gaston early last November and requests they make enquiries; Ifor has not so far received any packages from his parents. Ifor explains how he has meet several people from south Wales (including Mr Davies, Mr Jenkins and a Mr Lewis). He states that he is getting a little work and reading done. He also asks for a further £10 to be sent to him via Mr Heck. The postcard is finished off with Ifor asking for his best wishes to be passed on to Willie and sends love to old people.

Ifor sends thanks for the £5 postal, books and postcard of the 18th. He explains how he looks forward to hearing from them and the more they write the happier he'll be. He asks where Willie Hodges is, explaining that he received a postcard from him at Christmas. Ifor says that they are all settled and resigned to a long stay, then informs his parents that it is best to send parcels direct. He has met Harry Player for the first time and is getting much reading done, having found he is able to get books through a supplier in Munich.

Ifor wants the order with American Express Company to be cancelled at once. He finds them very expensive and they are unable to supply what he needs. He provides a list of food stuffs he would like to be supplied with. He writes that bread may be sent if packaged in a cardboard box.

Expresses how much he desires to return home and asks for his gratitude to be passed on to the Siloa choir for the parcels they have sent.

Sends his usual gratitude for the parcels he received. He writes that he much appreciates the parcels he gets that meet his requirements. On the other hand he takes a very dim view of "expert advice" and "regulation parcels". Ifor says that those giving out such advice should spend a little time actually living in the camp first.

Enclosing material (not present) that he would be happy to have forwarded Mr D. James of Dyfynnog (Chairman of the Welsh Language Society), should his father be willing. He further asks that Mr D. James be thanked for the interest he has shown in them, and assured that the Cymdeithas Gymraeg is in fullest sympathy with the aims of his society. He also gives permission for the enclosed material to be published in the Cymru, but asks that it not be further published unless it is in some other Welsh journal. Ifor goes on to briefly discuss the Welsh section of the school and his hopes that this will be the last year of their activities.

Ifor sends thanks for his father's letter of 07 January 1917 and lists the parcels he has recently received. Ifor recommends that no more fish or oats are sent. He has not received any bread, but suggests 8 lb. a week is too much and recommends 4 Ib. with the rest from Selfridges. 1 small tin of butter a month is insufficient for his needs.

Informs his father that the arrangement with Selfridges is working well and acknowledges a 2nd parcel from them. He has received the 1st batch of Danish bread, which is an improvement over that from Berne. Ifor brings up the subject of his parents moving house and expresses how he wishes he was there to assist with the move. He then moves on to talk at great length about Welsh nationalism, his hopes and dreams for the future of the nation of Wales. He sees education of the Welsh population as the main tool of achieving his vision. He writes that his mother would understand if she saw him teaching at the camp school, his pupils all seafaring men. Ifor is still in good health though is finding the monotony of life and limited outlook a strain. He once again expresses how he longs for home but writes how he has not forgotten the social squalor and the intellectual torpor of the Welsh of Aberdare. Finishing with 'we must cleanse the Augean stables'.
