["A note" (signed Mary Brodber). See her name on p. 395 of the History of the Vale of Neath as sister of the first Philip Williams. Mary Brodber was a dominant woman, judging by the master strokes of her writing. She writes her ironwork account on the back of a poem of Anti-Catholic tendencies: 'O by my shoul it is a Talbott / and he will cut all the english's throat ... / now now the hereticks all goe down / by Christ & St Patricke the nation's our own / there's an old prophesy found in a bog / that ireland shall be governed by an ass ... / and now the prophesy is come to pass / Talbot's the dog tirconnell's the ass'. D.R.P.].
