A book of sermons, in Welsh, [1712] x [1719], in the hand of the Reverend Samuel Williams, Rector of Llangynllo and Vicar of Llandyfriog, Cardiganshire, the father of the Reverend Moses Williams. A list of the sermons, in the hand of Moses Williams, is on p. 3 of the volume. It is possible that they were translations of English sermons and were meant to be printed, as, at the end of many of the sermons the words 'per. and ap.' have been written in pencil, perhaps meaning 'perused and approved' for printing. Most of the sermons were preached at Llanarth and Llanina on several occasions between 1712 and 1719. Also included (p. 109) is part of a letter addressed to the 'Reverend Mr. Samuel Williams, Vicar of Llan Dyvrïog in Cardigan Shire, to be left at Mr. Salathiel Evan's in Lammas Street, Carmarthen, South Wales'.
