Nid llawer sydd yn byw yn Rhyl heddyw ydynt yn cofio William Ellis, mae'n debyg; un o frodorion Dyserth oedd ef, ac wedi bod yn was i ryw foneddwyr yn rhywle nas gwn i, a chymaint a wn am dano ydyw iddo ddyfod i'r Rhyl i fyw, ac i'r New Inn yr aeth hefyd. Mae'n rhyfedd, onid ydyw, cynifer o hen weision boneddwyt sydd mor hoff o gadw ty tafarn ? yn enwedig os wedi colli eu llefydd y byddant—llawer hefyd, o ran hynny, heb golli eu Ilefycld, ond yn dewis, tua diwedd eu hoes, fyned i gadw ty tafarn. Feallai na fyddent yn eu helfen heb rhywbeth o'r fath— wedi arfer a tbendio ar foneddwyr, a phrofi pob math o ddiod fyddai ganddynt yn eu gwleddoedd, a'r arferiad wedi myned yn ail natur ynddynt, yn dewis swn a miri fydd yn y dafarn, a phawb a'i stori ganddo yn clegar fel gwyddau. Nid wyf yn sicr ai gwr gweddw oedd Wiiliam Lewis pan aeth i fyw i'r Rhyl, tae fater am hyny, ond yr wyf yn sicr o hyn—iddo gymmeryd bacbgen i'w chwaer, oedd yn amddifad o dad, pan oedd yn beth bychan; i'w fagu ac i'w ddwyn i fynu. Y mae y bachgen hwnw yn awr yn hen ddyn, fel finau. Yr oedd William Lewis wedi cymmeryd dwy o ferched ato oedd yn perthyn i'r wraig, ac erbyn i'r bacbgen gyrhaedd deuddeg oed, mwy neu lai, mi fa William farw, ac yn ol fel y clywais, gadawodd ei eiddo rhwng y bacbgen a'r merched, ;» hyny fu am ryw gymaint o amser. Yr oedd yn Bodrhyddan un y byddem yn ei alw yn Mr House, a 'doedd o ddim yn deilwng i'w altf yn Mr.' ehwaith, ond dyna fel yr oeddym ni, fel Oymry, mor wasaidd hefo pob strifflyn o Sais a ddoi i'r wlad. Gwas, nea fwtler i Mr Shipley Conwy, Bodrhyddan, oedd ef, ac mi fu yno am rai blynyddoedd, a phawb yn meddwl mai llangc ifanc oedd, neu hen lange. Yr wyf yn cofio iddo wirioni un neu ddwy o ferched, fel y mae llawer o honynt mor wan, drnain, yn enwedig hefo rhyw un dieithr. Nid wyf yn colio pa un ai colli ei le ddarfu iddo ef, tae fater am hyny, ond vr wyf yn cotio iddo weled lie i roi ei het ar yr boel yn y New Inn, a phriodi un o'r ddwy ferch, a neb yn meddwl nad oedd pob peth yn iawn. Ar ol hyny, neu yn hyny yn wir. 'doedd yno fawr o gartref i'r bachsien amddifad, druan, na dim cysgod chware teg iddo hefo eiddo ei ewytbr; y mae llawer felly wedi cael cam mawr, cyn ac wadi byny hefyd, a dyna lie bu House yn tori ffigvrr hefo eiddo William Lewis, oedd yn d'od i'r bachgen. Yn ystod wythnos pryd cynhaliwyd yr Eisteddfod fawr yn Rhudalan, yn y flwyddyn 1850, fel eraill, mi gymerodd House ardd oedd yn ytnyl gat y Castell, i gadw tafarn, ac yn siwr fe wuaed llawer o'r beirdd yn wirionach, yn gystal ag, eraill, oherwydd fod y dafarn mor gvfleus iddynt. Fe ddywedwyd fod House yn talu naw punt am yr ardd am wythnos o amser. Ond hyn yr wyf yn myned i'w ddweyd, pan oedd House yn llewys ei grys, a'i ffedog o'i iaen, ac yn brysur, pwy ddaeth ar ei bac ond y wraig gyntaf; yr oedd pawb wedi synn. a dase peth felly yn dig- wydd yn awr mi fase y gwalch yn y Cwt. Wedi hyn mi ddiflanodd y gwr bwn a'i wragedd o'r wlad, ac erbyn heddyw mae yn debyg nad oes un lie yn gwybod am danynt. Nid wyf yn bwriadu son fawr am dafarnwyr yr oes hono, er y gallwn ddweyd amryw bethau: ni buaswn yn manylu cymaint ar William Lewis oni bae y bachgen amddifad gafodd gam mawr.-Y nesaf a ddaw dan sylw ydi Thomas Jones, y Graig, fel yr adwaenid ef. Wedi bod yn ffarmlo y ffarm a elwir Y Graig. yn agos i Newmarket, yr ydoedd Mr Jones. Mab Dorddwygoch Joedd ef, ac yr oedd ganddo frawd o'r enw John: hen langc, ac yn hoff o lymaid ac ambell wythnos o spri, fel y bydd llawer. Mi glywais ddweyd mai Thomas Jones adeiladodd Glanglasfor i ddechre. Yn Pool Lane yr wyf yn ei gofio yn byw. Yr oedd ganddo bump, neu ragor, o feibion a dwy ferch dyn yn medda ar natur dda, a rhywiog, yo bawdd i ym- wneyd ag ef oedd Thomas Jones. Y mae llawer yu Rbyl yn cofio William, John, a Thomas—y tri mab. Mi aeth Isaac (nid wyf yn sicr ai Elias oedd enw y Hall) y ddau o'r Rhyl yn gynar yn y ganrif o'r blaen ar y Cyfandir; ac os ydynt yn fyw maent mewn oedran. Dygwyd William i fynu fel gof, ond mi lvgadodd yntau, fel Ilawer o'i flaen, am waith ysgafnach. Mi gymerodd yn ei ben i lanbau clociau a watches Dechreuodd ar y gwaith yn Llanelwy. ond i'r Rhyl y daeth, i'w hen gartref. Yr oedd yn un digon amcanns befo'r gwaith, ac o dipyn i beth mi aeth i werthu pob math o arfan i grefftwyr. Mi gymmerodd shop—' Shop y Gornel y byddem yn ei galw—lie bu amryw o'i flaen, ac un o bonynt ar ol hynv ddaeth am flyoyddoedd yn brif fasnachydd yn y Rhyl, a'r hwn hefyd a wnaeth ddaioni mewn llawer cyfeiriad. Yr wyf yn tybied mai William Jones ddechreuodd gadw a gwerthu ironmongery gyntaf yn y lie, a stwff da a gonest fyddai ganddo yn ei shop. Os cynion i aer fyddai eisiau, gwaith ward neu ebodis, mi fydde awch da arnynt, on d ward fydde y g.)reu. Mae genyf yn fy meddiant heddyw oriawr (watch) wedi ei cbael hanner can mlyiedd yn ol gan William Jones mai hi wedi cadw amser y flwyddyn ddiweddaf yn llawn gwell na'r flwyddyn gyntaf y mae yn ymyl gloc wedi ei gael yr uo adeg, ac mae yntau yn cadw yr amspr, heb eisiau ei well. 'Rwyf yn nodi y ffeithiau hyn er dangos mai y pethau goreu oedJ yn cael eu gwerthu yn shop William Jones, Yr oedd, fel mae llawer yn cofio, rhyw dipyn o gloffni ynddo, a thuedd i grafn ei ben, yn enwedig os eir yno i edrych am y doc nea watch, a'r rheiny beb fod yn barod. Un medrus iawn oedd John, < ei frawd, am wnend arian o bob peth—o faw, yn enwedig o glai. Onid oes rbyw ben ddywediad yn dweyd mai mewn baw mae arian fe wnaeth lawer o fries, rhai da, a rhai gwael hefyd. Ond nid arno efroedd y bai i gyd, achos nid pob dyn oedd yn deall sut i losgi brics; mi fydde yn ym- ddibynu o ba gyfeiriad roedd y gwynt yn chwythu, rhai wedi llosgi gorinod a rhai rhy fach o losgi, a r'aai heb losgi dim—yn dyfod o'r tan braidd yr un fath ac y rhoddwyd hwynt yno. Y mae llawer o'r brics a nodwyd wedi en buildio mewn tai yn y Rbyl, nid gan John Jonps yn unig, ond gan amryw oedd yn gwneud brics ar y pryd. Dywed- odd rbywun fod twyll yn mhob trad, ond ei drad ei hun. Yr wyf yn cofio gan John Jones geffyl a throl, ac mi gariodd yntau llawer yn ol a blaen. Ond mi gymerodd yntau, fel ei frawd William, waith vsgafnach, sef glanhau clociau; ac yn wir, yr oedd yn deall y gwaitb gystal, os nad gwell, na llaweroedd oedd yn myned ar hyd y wlad yn yr oes hono. Yr oedd yntau, fel ei dad, yu meddu ar ddynoliaeth dda. Hen langc oedd William pan gymerodd wraig: yn hen, hen langc yr aeth John i'w fedd hen lange oedd Thomas hefyd, ond yr oedd ef wedi dysgu y grefft o gigydda. Mae yn ddigon tebygjmai hefo ei gefnder,Edwaid Hughes, Pontygwtter, y dysgodd hefyd yr oedd, fel ei gefnder, yn un o'r cigyddion glanaf yn y wlad nid pob un sydd felly. Nid yw yn hctwdd cadw cig yn hir ar ol ambell gigydd, cyn iddo fyn'd vn"ddrwg. Nid pob cigydd fedr brynu chwaith mae'n fantais fawr i fod yn brynwr da. Ond welais i yr un na fyddai yn medru gwerthu yn iawn. Yr oedd Thomas Jones yn gall yn ei genedlaeth fel prynwr, yn werthwr gonest, ac yn ddyn lie y gadawech ef heddyw y cawsech ef fory. Mi fyddaf yn meddwl fod cigydda yn waith ennillgar, gan fy mod yn gweled amryw yma ac acw ar hyd y wlad yn byw yn hapus wrth ladd rhyw hanner dwsin i ddwsin o ddefaid yn ystod yr wythnos, a rhyw borcyn neu ddau; weithiau, rbyw ddarn bychan o eidion. Mae teuluoedd y cigyddion yn ymddangos yn hollol gyfforddus, a rbai, a. theuluoedd lliosog ganddynt, yn tori ffigwr go fawr hefyd. Merch (os nad wyf yn cam- gymeryd) Pontygwtter oedd mam yr hen langc. Yr oeddwn wedi arfaethu, Mr Golygydd, pan ddeuwn i'r Foryd, roi cam dros:yr afon i'r Foryd Bach: ond waeth i mi ddweyd hyny oedd yn fy meddwl yn y bennod hon, a dyna ydi hyny; dri- ugain mlynedd yn ol yr oedd Robert Hughes a'r teulu yn byw yno, a'r rheiny yn lliosog—ty a deg o blant, Saesnes oedd Mrs Hughes. Mi fum i yn yr ysgol hefo amryw o honynt, ac yn arfer bwyts ein tamaid hefo ein gilydd, sef yn nhy Sarah Vaughan. Mae llawer o adgofion y blyn- yddoedd hyny yn d'od i'r cof yn awr, a dyna oedd ar fy meddwl i ofyn, a oes rhai o honynt ar dir y rhai byw? Clywais fod Robert, y mab hynaf, yn swyddog ar y railway fe briododd ferch Ponty- gwtter, sef cyfnithder i'r hen langc uchod. Yr oedd hi a'i chwaer yn cadw shop milliner gyda'u gilydd, ac mae'n debyg mai hwy oedd y rhai cyntaf i gadw shop yn y basnes hwuw yn y Rhyl. A dyna oedd y gofyniad pan y deuwn i'r Foryd, a oedd Robert yn fyw? Rhyw ychydig o wyth- nosau yn ol, mi welais ddyn dieithr iawn yu fy meddwl yn myned hefo y Ficer a'r clocbydd i'r fynwent yma, a dyma y gair ailan mai gwr merch Pontygwtter oedd ef, yn myned i barotoi erbyn claddedigaeth ei wraig mai dymuniad ei wraig oedd iddi gael :ei chladdu gyda'i tbad a'i mam a'i pherthynasau, y rhai sydd yn gorwedd yma oes ar ol oes. Erbyn hyn yr oeddwn yn sicr yn fy meddwl mai Robert Hugbe3 oedd y gwr a welais, a chan fod y gladdedigaeth i gymmeryd lie yn mben ychydig ddyddiau, yr oeddwn yn meddwl myned i'r gladdedigaeth ac i gael gair ag yn ei brofedigaeth, ac i ddweyd yr hen ddywediad— Cynt y cyferfydd dau ddyn na dau mynydd." Ond yr oedd yn rhy wlyb ac oer i'r hen wr fyned o'i dy, ac felly mi gollais y cyfleustra, er mae yn debyg nad yw yn cofio dim am danaf. Os digwydd iddo weled hyn o sylw, yr wyf yn cofio ato.

ICORN FLOUR AS A WINTER FOOD
CORN FLOUR AS A WINTER FOOD In winter it is necessary to take more food of a heat-giving nature than in summer, in order to maintain the warmth of the body. The carbona- ceous or starch foods form one of the largest groups of the heat suppliers. Brown & Poison's "Patent" Corn Flour is a pure starch food, and by reason of ita digestibility can be strongly recommended as a part of the daily winter diet. Many hot dishes, light and wholesome, can be prepared from Brown & Poison's "Patent" Corn Flour. Re- cipea for these are included in Brown & Poison's "A Cook Book," which will be sent at once by Brown and Poison, Paisley, on receipt of a penny stamp. The recipes are mostly of a simple nature, and the directions are full and clear. Everyone interested in dainty, light, and digestible Sweets, Savouries, and Sauces, should write tor a copy at once.
COUNCIL ELECTION.I
COUNCIL ELECTION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE RHYL JOURNAL. SIR,-Kindly allow me a small space in your esteemed paper to sound an alarm, to utter a vigorous, sincere, and hearty protest against the return to the Council of all the old members who are retiring. I don't object to the young member who has been on the Council less than a year, as on the whole he has acquitted himself well and'has done little or nothing towards bringing on the town the enormous debt it owes, viz., 9234,156 6s 7d, according to the statement of accounts up to March 31st, 1902. This debt is enormous, sur- passing that of many towns I know whose population is more than six times that of Rhyl, putting a charge on the ratepayers of quite three shillings in the f, and also inflicting a greater liability on them than the National Debt entails upon the country at larve. I know the answer that the sinning Councillors return to this charge. With this money they made the Marine Lake, acquired the gasworks and the waterworks. My reply is that Rhyl would have been better off without the Lake, seeing that it does not pay, and that the old insanitary area it covers could have been got rid of for half the money the lake cost by making a park there and providing for all sorts of games and entertainments. What is wanted with a lake when the town possesses the sea ? Then the Gasworks were bought at the out- rageously extravagant price of £ 35,000, 915,000 of that sum being for goodwill, which was a hand- some present to the shareholders the whole purchase money was some thousands in excess of the sum they were fairly entitled to. In fact I would not have bought the works at all because of their unsuitable situation. They should have been close to the railway, and communication therewith obtained by a siding. This would have saved an enormous sum per annum in horseflesh, men's wages, and wear and tear of roads. To bring these works up to date nearly £ 8,000 more has been spent on them, making their total cost over £ 42,000, and leaving their indebtedness to the town at the end of March, 1902, £ 33,704 15s 9d; and they are still without direct railway com- munication, and are to remain so to the end of the chapter. Not profiting by this sad and costly experience, the Council thoughtlessly entered upon the scheme of supplying the town with the electric light, utterly regardless of cost or any other reasonable consideration. It is not yet known where they are in regard to this outlay, but one need not be a prophet or a son of a prophet to predict the result. I have seen the accounts of a county borough of nearly 70,000 inhabitants last year their loss was nearly £ 1,500, and their prospects for the current year are not one whit better. Rhyl waterworks have been most costly, and continue to require further outlay. I know that an abundant supply of good water is indis- pensable, but this could have been obtained on cheaper terms if Rhyl had enlisted the co-opera- tion of neighbouring places. They have recently tried to enforce this co-operation, but at a great cost and with little or no success. The brief recital of these important facts condemns all veteran Councillors, and should inspire all the electors with the determination to get rid of them as opportunity offers. Especially should it determine them to vote against candi- dates who are in a certain business, as repre- sentatives of that class have done the town no good. On the contrary some have done the town much harm by persistently and determinedly advocating schemes of the most extravagant nature,such as converting the town into a borough, providing costly houses for the working classes, &c. Some prominent members have also done harm by not attending the Committee meetings, where the most important work of the Council is done. I won't single out any member but refer your readers to the list of attendances which has been issued by the Town Clerk. I believe it is the exception for members to attend more than fifty per cent, which is a very bad record. It will be seen by the said table that some members have rendered themselves con- spicuous by their absence." No ordinary business would prosper under such disadvantageous circum- stances. Bankruptcy and ruin would inevitably follow. In conclusion I adjure the electors to think of these painful facts, to talk of them continuously, and to resolve with all the force at their command to put an end to them.—Yours faithfully, DISTRESSED RATEPAYER. I.e.—Have just heard some unpleasant thirgs about the "private and confidential" meeting held recently. The news is, as the ladies say, "awful," and, if correct, will necessitate another increase in our rates. A few more empty shops and houses, and possibly a few more failures, for which Rhyl is noted.

The economical rearing of calves and the best and cheapest method of feeding them in their early days is a matter of much importance. Some people rear them upon butter, by giving them whole-milk or hand-skimmed milk. but this is wasteful. The food on which they thrive best is separated milk from the Alfa Laval" Separators enriched with a little oil or other extra food. The separated milk is fresh, sweet and warm calves fed on it never have scour." Thus the farmer obtains a double advantage from using these Alfa Laval" Separators— more butter and better calves. There is no comparison of these machines with others, as their superiority is manifest on all points. The Alfa Laval" sales exceed that of all others put together, and they have received over 550 First Prizes. They occupy an acknowledged first position, the hand-power machines never having been beaten in any public trial held anywhere in the United Kingdom.
