BRfNAMMAN D-kP.LITif.-Nos Iau diweddaf, cawsoin y fraint o wrandaw y Parch. Stanley Jones, Caernarfon, yn traddodi darlith ar y diweddar "Kilsby," un o ddynion hynotaf ei oes. Cawsom gan y darlithydd grynodeb manwl o'i hanes, ynghyd ag addysgiadau oddiwrth ei fywyd. Yr oedd ei Ifordd ei hun ganddo ymhob peth; nid oedd wedi efelychu neb. Un Kilsby fu yn Nghymru erioed; ao un o roddion gwerthfawr Duw i'r byd ydyw cymeriadau o'r fath. Adroddodd banes dyddorol am dano yn ystod ei efrydiaeth yn Ngholeg y "Neuaddlwyd," dan ofai Dr. Phillips. Rhwng onau yr ysgol un diwrnod yr oedd "Kilsby" yn mwynhau ei hun rhwng y rhych- iau "pya" yn yr ardd, pa un oedd yn ymyl y brif- ffordd, a digwyddodd ar yr adeg hon fod hen halier ar ei daith heibio gyda cherbyd a dau "fyw- lyn," pa rai oeddynt wedi myned yn ystyfnig o her- wydd poethder yr hin. Canfyddodd yr hen halier Kilsby rhwng y rhychiau pys, a gwaeddodd, "Hoi, ysgoler, a oes genyt rhyw feddyginiaeth o fewn dy gyrhaedd i beri i'r anifeiliaid yma i gyflymu yn eu symudiad?" Atebodd ar unwaith ei fod, a dyna "Kilsby" ar ei union dros y olawdd at y "miwlyn," ac ymaflyd yn ei glust gan ollwng ychydig o'r pys i lawr i'w glust, fel pe byddai yn sibrwd wrtho rhyw neges. Nid gynt y gwnaeth hyn nad aeth y miwlyn i ffwrdd ar garlpm. "Beth dd'wedaist ti wrtho?" meddai yr hen halier. "O," meddai yntau, "dweyd fod ei dad wedi marw." "Wel, cofia beidio dweyd wrth y llall, neu fyddaf heb yr un o honynt," medd yr hen halier. Cadeiriwyd yn fedrus iawn gan y Parch. W. D. Thomas ,Gibea. Yr oedd yr elw yn myned i gynorthwyo yr hen gymeriad parchus, Rees Bowen, Cwmgarw, yn ei ddydd blin, yr hwn sydd wedi cael ei amddifadu o un o'i aelodau (ei goes) drwy ddamwain. Cydymdeimlir yn fawr ag ef gan bawb o'i gydnabod, ao hyderwn fod elw sylweddol wedi ei wneyd tuag at ei gynorthwyo. HERMON.—Cynhaliodd y frawdoliaeth yn y ile uchod eu gwyl flynyddol. Gwasanaothwyd gan y Parch. R. Evans, Blackwood. Yr oedd y gwlith yn disgyn meddent ar oedfaon yn ystod yr wyl. t,.A.LL.-Cynhaliodd aelodau Plaid Annibynol Llafur gyfarfod yn yr awyr agored. Cadeiriwyd gan Mr. Arthur Morgan, ao anerchwyd y gynull- eidfa gan Mr. Bottomley ar y testyn "Sosialaeth." BARRY ISLAND.—Y lIe uchod oedd man dewisol aelodau Ysgol Sul Gibea i gymeryd eu gwibdaith flynyddol eloni, yr hon gymerodd lo dydd Sadwrn diweddaf. Trodd y daith allan yn foddhaol, a'r hin yn pobpeth ellid ddymuno. Hyderwn y bydd y wlbdalth yn foddion i eymbylu fwy o weithgarwch a ffyddlondeb i'r Ysgol Sabbathol; ond cofier mai nid "excursion" ddylai sylfaen eu ffyddlondeb fod. CYFEILLACH UNDEBOL.-Nos Iau cyn y diweddaf cynhaliwyd cyfeillach undebol (dan nawdd Cynghor yr Eglwysi Rhyddion) vn Moriah M.C. Cadeiriwyd gan y Parch. W. D. Thomas, cadeirydd y Cynghor. Darllenwyd papyrau gan Mr. John Llewellyn (Bethania), a Mr. Willie Morgan (Moriah), ar "Gadwraeth y Sabbath"; yna agorwyd ymddyddan ar y mater gan Mr. John Daviea, (Bethania), Jen- kin Jones (Gibea), Parch H. O. Jones (Ebenezer), a'r Parch Rhyetyd Davies (Moriah). Hefyd cafwyd ychydjg eiriau pwrpasol ar y pryd gan Mri. John Davies, Cloth Hall; D. W. Lewis, Stationers' Hall, ynghyd a'r cadeirydd, y Parch. W. D. Thomas. Yr oedd y "gyfeillach" yn brin o'r cynulliad ddylai fod. Cynrychiolaeth wan oedd ynghyd o'r gwa- hanol eglwysi. Yr oedd y papyrau ddar- llenwyd, ynghyd a'r ymddiddan oedd yn canlyn, yn werth gwneyd aberth er bod yn bresenol. Fel y cyfeiriwyd yn ystod y cyfarfod, mai y ffyddloniaid oedd yn bresenol, ond hyderwn y bydd cyfeillachau o'r natur yma yn foddion i wneyd y ffyddlon yn ffyddlonach eto, ac i gario naws y cyfeillachu i blith y dosbarth svdd heb ddeffro i'w dyledswyddau. CTFAHFOD PLWYFOL.—Mewn cyfarfod gynhaliwyd dan nawdd y Cynghor Plwyf yn Ysgoldy G.C.G., rhyw dair wythnos yn ol, yr hwn sydd eisioes wedi ymddangos yn y JOURNAL, etholwyd nifer o dreth- dalwvr a nifer cyferbynol o "homagers" er trefnu ynglyn a'r "sheds" sydd wedi ei hadeiladu ar y Comin. Yr oedd nifer y cynrychiolwyr yn cael eu dewis o Brynamman, Waun, a Chwmgorso, a Chwm- llynfell. Cyfarfyddwyd nos Fercher diweddaf yn festri Carmel i'r amcan o gael penderfynu beth oedd i wneyd a'r cyfryw "sheds"; y rhai cyntaf ddaeth ger bron y prawf oedd "sheds' 'y Banwen, a blin gonym oedd clywed na chafodd cynrychiolwyr y Banwen lais yn y mater. Yr oedd y ddedfryd wedi ei rhoddi debyg cyn cyrhaedd y llys. Hyderwn weled rhywrai o ddifrif vn cymeryd y mater mewn Haw ac i ddadleu dros gyfiawnder i bob perchen "shanty," ac nid gadael cenfigen a malais i lywodr- aethu dan y gochl mai "lies" y "public" sydd ganddynt mewn golwg, a phriodol ydyw gofyn faint mae y "public" wedi elwa ar y "lies" yma ar hyd y blvnyddoedd? PER SO.VOL,—Gwnaeth Richard Morgan, y canwr pennillion poblogaidd, fare rhagorol eleni eto yn yr Eisteddfod Genedlaethol. Hai at), Die.—"Brynfab."

LLANDOVERY. YR EISTEDDFOD GENEDLAETHOL.-Cyiiimerodd y Parch. J. Volander Jones, o Bentretygwyn, Llan- ymddyfri, rhan flaenllaw yn yr Eisteddfod Genedl- aethol yn Llundain vr wythnos ddiweddaf. Cyfan- soddodd ac adroddodd yr englynion canlynol yn nglvn a'r Gorsedd:- I ennillydd y "gadair," Mr Gwynn Jones: "Gwyn," yn Llundain gain yn llondeg,—a ddaeth Yn ddoethaf deyrn Barddeg; Uchelaf wr ei choleg, A'i chawr tal wrth chwareu teg.

DIRWEST A CHREFYDD. At Olygydd y JOURNAL. (Syr,—Caniatewch i mi ofod fechan unwaith eto o'ch JOURNAL byd-enwog i ddweyd gair ar v cwestiwn mawr a phwysig, sef "Dirwest a Chref- ydd." Y mae y cwestiwn hwn yn hen iawn, ac i mi y mae ei henaint yn gosod llawer mwy o werth arno. Nid yw y "Dduwinyddiaeth Newydd" yn Meibl R. J. Campbell yn cyffwrdd ag ef o gwbl, ond y mae yr "Hen Dduwinyddiaeth" yn Meibl mawr fy Nuw wedi cael ei fritho ganddo drwyddo draw. Y mae 150 o ranau ynddo yn cyffwrdd ar y cwestiwn o ymyfed. Y mae 130 ohonynt yn bendant yn erbyn hyny, ac y mae yr 20 ereill, er yn tueddu i'w gymeradwyo, etto yn corchlefain yn uchel yn ei erbyn. Os yw y diwygiad diweddaf wedi dysgu rhywbeth i Gymru yn fwy na'i gilydd, y mae wedi dysgu nad oes un cyssylltiad na pherthynas i fod rhwng Eglwys Dduw a thafarn. Y mae Duw, Pen Mawr a Sylfaenydd yr Eglwys, wedi cyhoeddi gwae er yn foreu iawn uwchben pob tafarnwr, gan ddywedyd, "Gwae a roddo ddiod i'w gymydog." Y mae 100,000 o feddwon yn myned i'w bedd bob blwyddyn yn Mhrydain Fawr, sef tua 270 bob dydd, ac etto y mae Eglwys Iesu Grist yn yr ugeinfed ganrif yn rhoddi lie ac aelodaeth i'r bobl sydd yn foddion i hyrddio y nifer enfawr o gan mil o eneidiau i'r farn bob blwyddyn, ac os yw fy Meibl i yn wirionedd, yn eu hyrddio i golledig- aeth a thrueni tragwyddol. Y mae yn dda genyf fod Senedd ein gwlad yn dechreu agor ei llygaid, a gweled y drwg mawr sydd yn yr ymarfer o ymyfed, ond nid ydwyf yn cydfyn'd a hi pan yn rhoddi "iawn" i dafarnwr wrth rhoi heibio ei dafarn a cholli ei fasnach. Y mae cerbydau yn ein gwlad heddyw yn methu cael gwaith am fod cer- bydau modur wedi llanw eu lie, ond nid ydynt yn gofyn "iawn" am hyny. Y mae llongau hwyliau ag oedd yn cael digon o waith ychydig flynyddau yn ol erbyn heddyw wedi cael eu troi i'r naill ochr gan agerlongau mawrion a nerthol. ond ni chlywais fod eu percfienogion yn dadleu am "iawn" gwladol oherwydd hyny, ond y mae y tafarnwyr wrth golli eu masnach yn ddigon beiddgar a ffroenuchel a di- gywilydd i mofyn "iawn" am eu colled. Yr "iawn" oreu iddynt hwy fuasai lawn y Groes, ac os na sicrheir hwnw ganddynt i'w heneidiau brwnt, aflan, a dichellgar, ofer fydd pob "iawn" arall iddynt yn enwedig ar gyfer byd ar ol hwn.

Yr eira ddisgynai yn araf a sionc, A'r hin oedd yn oerllyd o'r hanner, I'r orsaf yr aethym, gan feddwl gael clonc Gan rai o orsafwyr Pencader. "Dydd da, Mr. Porter," ddywedais wrth un, "Dydd da," meddai'n bwt ac yn sarug, A chlywais e'n sibrwd fel hyn wrth ei hun, "Wel, wfft i fath wyliau Nadolig." Deallais ar unwaith nad oedd yn ei grys, Gofynais beth ydoedd yr achos? Dywedodd, "Yr ydym bob amser mewn brys Pan fyddo Nadolig yn agos."

CARMARTHEN COUNTY SATURDAY, Juno 19th.—Before Mr. F. Dudley Williams-Drummond, Hafodneddyn (in the chair); Mr. D. L. Jones, Derlwyn; Mr. A. O. Davies, Up- lands Mr. L. A. L. Evans, Pantycendv, and Mr. Hughes, Middleton Hall. A DANGEROUS NAP." Inspector Gwynne, G.W.R., summoned Joseph Ward, farm labourer, Cwmburry Farm, with tres- passing on the Great Western Railway on the ólst May. Mr. Ludford, solicitor, Llanelly, appeared; for the Company, and said that defendant was very lucky that he was able to be there to answer the charge, as, about 11.45 on the night in question, he was found sleeping by the up line just outside Ferry- side, with his head about a foot from the rail, and the excursion train from Swansea to Aberystwyth must have passed him. P.C. Richards, Ferryside, bore out Mr. Ludford's op<3ning statements, and said that defendant was helplessly drunk, and fast asleep. Witness took: him as far as Bronhin Farm, and then let lum go home. Defendant, who pleaded guilty to tho charge, said that ho had a drop too much, and was not used to it. He went to sleep against the hedge. He would take great care that it did not happen again. Ho was fined 5s. and costs. BROKEN RECOGNISANCE. John Jones, Water-street, Ferryside, was charged by P.C. Richards with being drunk and disorderly in Water-street on the night of the 31st May. The Constable stated that on the night in question he found defendant in a very drunken and excited state in Water-street, Ferryside. He had blood on his face, and was dressed only in his shirt and trousers. Witness had previously to stop a fight between defendant and another man. The Bench took some time in considering this case, as defendant was bound over in March last to keep the peaee for six months for a similar offence, and that time had not elapsed. There were also a number of previous convictions against him. The Chairman read him a severe lecture upon the error of his ways. and sent him to prison for one calendar month, with hard labour, without the option of a fine. ALLEGED HOUSE-BREAKING. Wm. Pearce and Griffith Wm. Lloyd, of no fixed abode, were charged by P.C. Evans, Abergwili, with house-breaking at Pencerrig Farm, Llanpump- saint, on Wednesday, 16th inst., and stealing pro- perty to the value of J315, belonging to Daniel Jones. Rachel Evans, servant at Pencerrig Farm, Llan- pumpsaint, and grand-daughter of the occupant, 1)1. Jones, said that on the 16th inst. all the family attended anniversary services at Pemel, leaving the house about 10 a.m. All the doors and windows were properly secured. About 3 p.m. she and her brother returned to milk the cows, and then went back to the meeting, locking the house up. About 9.30 to 10 she went home, when her brother drew her attention to the state of the front door, which had been tampered with, and was half open. Her grandfather, Daniel Jones, came up, and they all went into the house. She found a box on the table, and the dairy door was open, and the window broken. The box was open. It was on the mantel- piece when she left. She missed two suits of clothes, bangle, watch, gold chain, and her purse, contain- ing 2s. 6d. and a ring. Her brother's money was missing, and half a loaf was found under a. settle. She recognised the clothes, chain, and watch pro- duced as being belonging to the house. Martin Thomas Evans, brother of the last witness servant at Pencerrig, and David Jones, the occu- pant of the farm, corroborated. The latter said that he found the missing things which were pro- duced in one of his fields the same night. He was informed that they were there. Without the clothes they were worth about JE15. P.C. Evans, Abergwili, said that about 10.40 p.m. on the 16th inst., he, in consequence of information, went in search of the prisoners, whom he had seen in tho neighbourhood in the evening. He traced tliem to Carmarthen, and at 11.30 he found them in a lodging-house in Mill-street, and said that he was making enquiries as to a house which had been broken into. He took them to the County Police- station, where defendant Lloyd said, "It is well to speak the truth. We did break in." They were then locked up. On the following day, in company with P. S.: Williams, a piece of cord (produced) was found. Defendant Pearce took it into his hand and said, "It. is Lloyd's." Witness said it had been found with the clothing. Lloyd took it in his hand and threw it to the ground, saying to Pearce, "The game is up; do you know where it was found? It was along with the clothing." Pearce commenced to speak, but witness stopped him and charged them with breaking and entering the dwelling-house of Pencerrig Farm. and feloniously stealing the articles already enumerated, the property of Daniel Jones. After being cautioned Pearce said, "We did break in. One was in while the other was watching." Lloyd said, "Yes." They afterwards said where the property could be found. Some of the property was still missing, but nothing was found on them. Pearce said that they were out fishing all day. They went and bought some bread and bacon. They caught threo eels and tried to get them cooked but could not. They were trying to get to North WTales. They came to a blacksmiths, and Tommy Lloyd asked him to break in, but he refused. They saw a man, and Lloyd asked him where all the people were, and he said that they were at chapel. Lloyd asked him five times to break into houses, and he at last consented and went with him. The Chairman—Was this Lloyd your companion? —He was my friend. The Chairman (to Lloyd)—Do vou want to say any- thing?—This ie not a. trial. The Chairman—No. I have already warned you. —I deny what he says. Pearce—You did, Thomas Lloyd. Both prisoners were sent for trial to the next Quarter Sessions, to be held on July 5th.

CARMARTHEN BOROUGH MONDAY, June 21st., before the Mayor (Mr. John Crossman, Penllwyn Park); Mr. W. Spurrell, King- street; Mr. John Lewis, Gwynfryn, and Mr. H. E. B. Richards, Castle House. LICENSING. A temporary transfer of the license of the Cooper's Arms, from William Thomas, was granted to David James. EXCISE PROSECUTIONS. Mr. P. M. L. O'Sullivan, excise officer, sum- moned T. Phillips, distiller's agent, Nott's-square, for removing spirits without a permit. Mr. Fitzroy, of the Board of Customs and Excise, appeared for the excise authorities, while defendant was represented by Mr. Ivor Bowen (instructed by Mr. Wallis-Jones, solicitor, Carmarthen). Mr. Fitzroy, in opening, said that the prosecution was undertaken on behalf of the Inland Revenue authorities, under Section 107 of the Spirits Act, 1880, which made it an offence for anyone to re- move or receive spirits without the proper permit, and for which offence defendant was liable to a fine of J3500. There was no Act which was re- garded as being more important than this Act of 1880. It was only by the spirits bearing the official certificate that they could be traced, in that case, Mr. Phillips, the defendant was agent for a firm of Irish distillers, named Kirker, Greer and Co., Ltd., Belfast, who, in November last, on Mr. Phillips' order, sent an octave (or cask containing 5i gallons) of whiskey to Carmarthen, to be sent to a man named Harries at Cribin. Delivery of this cask was refused at Cribin, so it was brought back to Car- marthen, and stored in the Plough Hotel, where it remained until March, when it was sent to a man named Evans, of the Friends Arms, by Mr. Phillips' order, without the necessary certificate. Mr. Ivor Bowen—It is a very obscure Act of Parliament. Do you ask for a fine of £500? Mr. Fitzroy—No. I only pointed out that defen- dant was liable to that amount. Continuing, Mr. Fitzroy said that the whiskey was illegally stored at the Plough, and the original permit from Belfast to Cribin had expired. On the 10th Feb., Messrs. Kirker, Greer & Co., wrote asking the excise supervisor at Carmarthen to endorse the original permit to David Evans, but this the super- visor could not do, because he was not satisfied that the whole of the duty had been paid on the whiskey, and because it had been illegally stored. John Owen Thomas, licensee of the Plough Hotel, said that he also carried on the business of a haulier. On the 23rd January he collected an octave of whiskey and conveyed it to Mr. Harris, Cribin, to whom it was consigned, but delivery was refused. He then took it back to Carmarthen, and stored it in his saddle room. He had no arrangement with defendant to store it. His saddle-room was not entered for the storage of spirits. It was there until the 12th March, when it was taken by a man named Tucker to the Friends' Arms. Witness pro- duced the delivery book signed by Tucker. The Mayor, after inspecting the book said he was bound to say that the entry lent itself to suspicion, as it was the only one in ink, and written in an en- tirely different hand to the one preceding or follow- ing it. Continuing, witness said that he did not know that he had to enter all spirits in his stock book as carrier. He had had notice from the excise people about the fiiatter, but he did not think it applied to him as a carrier. Cross-examined by Mr. Bowen—He was not charged by the Excise authorities with committing an offence, but had been cautioned. BTr. Bowen—I suppose, like myself, you did not know all the sections of this Act, it is only super- visors who know that. v Witness said that from the 14th November to the 23rd January, when he collected the cash, it had been some time at the G.W.R. station. He did not store it by Mr. Phillip's order but because Mr. Harris had refused acceptance of it. y Mr. Spurrell-It was by Mr. Phillip's instruc- tions, however, that the cask was taken to Cribin.— On the 12th March Mr. Phillip's boy went up to the Plough and asked whether the Excise officer had been there. Witness was not there at the time., In answer to Mr. Bowen. Mr. HilL the super- visor, said that he would not say that the cask was not at the G.W. Railway all that time. He had no knowledge that it was there. Mr. Bowen—The permit was all right. Mr. Hill—The permit was not all right. The permit was from Belfast to Cribin, allowing reason- able time for transit. When the cask got to Cribin the permit lapsed. Mr. Bowen—The firm wrote to Mr. Hill, but with the red-tape which characterizes Government De- partments, they had no answer. David Tucker, Water-street, spoke to taking the cask from the Plough to the Friends' Arms, for which he got 3d. to buy himself a pint of beer (laughter). At this juncture Mr. Bowen asked Mr. Fitzroy to produce a letter, and added, ''You promised to call Mr. Hill, and although you are a Government law- yer, you must carry out your promise, Mr. Alfred Hy. Hill, supervisor of Excise, Car- marthen, said that on the 11th February he first heard about this whiskey through a letter which he received from Messrs. Kirker, Greer and Co., say- ing that the cask, for which delivery had been re- fused, was in the hands of Mr. Thomas, Plough Hotel, and asking witness to endorse the permit to Evans, Friends' Arms. He instructed Mr. O'Sulli- van, one of his officers, to make enquiries, as a re- sult of which he was not satisfied that the cask was legally stored, or that the full amount of duty had been paid on it, and so he sent to his Department for instructions in the matter. By Mr. Richards—With regard to the question of duty, witness had had certain enquiries made, and was informed that the order for the whiskey was sent to the Carmarthen office of the firm,* and therefore licenses would be needed in Carmarthen. He was not satisfied that those license duties had been paid. Mr. Bowen—But they have been paid now?—We have not received a penny piece. Mr. Bowen—Remember, you are on oath, do you say that these duties have not been paid?—I am not satisfied that they have been paid. Pressed by Mr. Bowen for a direct answer to the question, witness said that he did not know whether they had been paid. As far as he knew they had not. Mr. Bowen—Well, I put it to you that there is no class of duty that has not been paid on it.—It is not our duty to demand payment, it is for people to pay themselves. Continuing, witness said that the request of the firm for an endorsement of the license was in per- fect order. Questioned as to whether the Act of 1880 was not very complicated, witness said that provisions were not difficult; they were exceedingly plain. Mr. Bowen—But you have enough to do with the super-tax, Mr. Hill (laughter)—I have nothing to do with the super-tax yet. I leave that in the hands of Mr. Lloyd-George (laughter). Mr. Bovven- You will soon have, then (laughter). By the Mayor—The permit was absolutely the property of the Crown, and could not be touched. The permit in question was granted only from Belfast to Cribin, and anyone touching the goods after that was committing an offence. Mr. Bowen—Do you swear that, Mr. Hill? Re- member you are on oath.—Yes. Mr. Bowen—Then supposing a case of whiskey is sent to one of the magistrates, or to me, and I do not want it, and send it on to another friend, the permit has lapsed, and anyone touching the whiskey is committing an offence?—Yes. Mr. Bowen—I am a lawyer, and I don't believe it. It may be Government red-tape, but it is not sense.—You won't frighten me by shouting, Mr. Bowen. Mr. Bowen—No, but I can convict you of making a wrong statement. In answer to Mr. John Lewis, witness said that if a consignment of spirits was refused, it would be brought back to Carmarthen, where it would re- main until the firm applied for a permit to have it back, or for it to be sold to another customer- The Act, however, did not provide for the return of the consignment on the original permit. Mr. Bowen, in addressing the Bench, said that Mr. Phillips assumed that Mr. O'Sullivan had been to the Plough and seen the permit. That was so. Mr. Phillips sent his boy up to the Plough, and finding that Mr. O'Sullivan had been there, he thought that the permit had been endorsed and that everything was in order. He accordingly gave in- structions for the removal of the whiskey to another customer. He (Mr. Bowen) thought that the magistrates would see that it was only a nominal fine, not JE500 as had been mentioned by Mr. Fitzroy in opening. The Bench retired for some time to consider their verdict, and on their return the Mayor in- timated that they were inclined to think that a technical offence had been committed, but in view of the fact that those matters might reaplt in something more serious they inflicted a fine of £2 15s. 6d. including costs. Advocates' fee was disallowed. David Evans, licensee of the Friends Arms, was then proceeded against for receiving the spirits without a permit; for neglecting to enter the certi- ficate in his stock-book; and for not cancelling the certificate. He pleaded "Not guilty" to the first, and "Guilty" to the last two. charges. Mr. Fitzroy appeared for the Excise authorities, and intimated that the facts were practically the same as those in the last case. David Tucker, Water-street, said that he took the octave from the Plough to the Friends Arms. Mrs. Evans, who received it, noticed that there was no permit attached, and sent him back to the Plough for it, but it could not be found. Mr. P. M. L. O'Sullivan, excise officer, spoke to visiting the Friends' Arms on March 5th, and see- ing the cask there. He examined defendant's stock- book. The permit was not entered, and there was no certificate attached to the cask. He found seven certificates not entered, and 75 not cancelled. He placed the cask under seizure, and it had been 60 since. Mr. Hill said that the cask now belonged abso- lutely to the King. Defendant said that it was his wife always made the entries, but Mr. Fitzroy submitted that the license was granted to him, and he was responsible. The Bench fined defendant £2 for receiving, 10s. for not entering, and 10s. for not cancelling, to- gether with costs. Advocate's fee was not allowed. SCHOOL' ATTENDANCE. For not sending his boy, Vincent, aged 13, to 6chool at all during the last seven weeks, John Hughes, labourer, Lynch's-yard, was summoned by Mr. J. James, attendance officer,.—The case was ad- journed for a month.

LLANDILO SATURDAY, June 19th.—Before Mr. J. Lewes Thomas, Caeglas (in the chair), and Mr. H. Jones- Thomas, Penrhos, Llanfynydd. DRUNK ON LICENSED PREMISES. David Jones, 1, Caebryn-terrace, Penygroes, was charged with being drunk on the licensed premises of the Old Gin Shop, Llandilo. Mr. John R. Williams, solicitor, Llandilo, defended. P.C. Morgan said that about 2 p.m. on the 29th of last month he saw defendant sitting in the kitchen of the Old Gin Shop, Llandilo. He was very drunk. Shortly afterwards defendant went out and staggered up Carmarthen-street. Before see- ing him in the kitchen he had seen him in the passage leaning on some boxes. He was unmistak- ably drunk.. Cross-examined—W ltness asked defendant his name and address. He stood up when witness asked him. He concluded that he was drunk from his general appearance. He had a pint measure in front of him. He did not see him drink out of the pint. There was nobody else about at the time. He gave him his name and address after some trouble. tie hesitated very much before doing so. He thought that he could not do so at once be- cause he was too drunk. Could not say whether defendant had dinner at the Old Gin Shop. WIt- ness saw Mrs. Jones, the landlady, afterwards. He asked her to come to the kitchen that a man was there. He then asked her if she had supplied this man who was drunk with beer. She denied. After a time she took the pint which was half full of beer away. He saw the servant girl in the room behind the kitchen. Didn't you tell Mrs. Jones to send the man out.'— Witness replied that it was not his duty to put him out without her authority. He told Mrs. Jones that the man was still in the kitchen. When he went back he was gone. He went out of his own ac- cord. Witness did not have to assist him. He was very drunk. He did not hear Mrs Jones say that the pint did not belong to the man and that he had not been served with beer there. Did she ask you to put him out?—I said I was ready to assist her if she required assistance. What was Mrs. Jones' reply to that? Did she say the man does not re- quire assistance; you can put him out if you like. No, not in my presence. By the Deputy Chief Constable—The man did not say anything when witness charged him with being drunk He invited Mrs. Jones to come to the road to have a look at the man. In reply she said she knew quite well thai the man was drunk from his appearance in the house, and added that she aian t want to come to see him on the road. Mr. J. R. Williams did not think it was necessary for him to call any evidence. All the evidence this young policeman '(laughter) adduced was that the man was sitting quietly at the table doing nothing to anvbody. He was in a quiet mood. There was no evidence to show that he had called or touched the contents of the pint measure. When the wit- ness tells Mrs. Jones about him she said she knew nothing about him and that the pint did not belong to the man, and that if he liked he could turn the man out. The Chairman said Mr. Williams had a very strong case to answer. Continuing, Mr. Williams said the man came in about 1.30. Mr. and Mrs. Jones were at dinner. Defendant asked if they could give him something to eat. and Mrs. Jones said he could have sometmng after they had finished. Afterwards the servant gave him a plateful of food in the kitchen. To all ap- pearances the man was perfectly sober and in such a state that they would have served him. Hie wit- nesses would prove the pint didn't belong to the do- fendant. David Jones, the defendant, said that Mr and Jones were in the back kitchen eating thei bar He ? Tt There was nobod^inThe to eat. Mrs!'Jones said he"^ frTk something finished.

He had been fined before and he did not wish to be finS SfnJ^r anH V not serve a person when he was f r nothing of the man having a pint of beer in front of him. Margretta Price, maid servant at the Old Gin Shop, saw defendant in the smoke-room on the date in question. There was a pint with beer in it on the table and many other glasses. The pint did not belong to defendant, but had been left behind by someone. The defendant was sober and looked just the same as he did now. She served defendant with dinner and he paid 6d. for it. He was not in the house more than 10 minutes. Mr. Jones, when the policeman spoke about the man. said he was alright. He asked if defendant had been served there and Mrs. Jones said, "Certainlv not. Mrs Jones took the pint away. She hea^d the police! men asking defendant for his address, and he gave it, She heard him say Penygroes. The policeman told him if he didn't go out quick "he would take him in there" (meaning the locK-up). D.C.C. Evans questioned witness at some length as to where she had been in service before. Her re- plies were made with a good deal of hesitation. Beyond the statement that she had been in service as a barmaid at Llanelly the names of places were not given. She said it was by the station some- where and she had been in another place after that. Mrs. Jones, the landlady, also gave evidence. She told the servant to give defendant dinner. She denied emphatically that defendant was drunk and also supplying him with drink. "If he was drunk then," she added, "I am drunk now and I have never taken any drink in my life." Defendant was fined 2s. 6d. and costs. CASE AGAINST LANDLORD DISMISSED. E. J. Jones, the landlord of the Old Gin Shop was then charged with permitting drunkenness. The evidence was a repetition of that already given. The Chairman said they considered the police gave their evidence most excellently without any exaggeration but they gave the benefit of the doubt as to the state of this man and dismissed the case. The police were quite right in bringing the case on. BICYCLE WITHOUT LIGHT. _W. George. Llandilo. has fined 6d. and costs for riding a bicycle without a light.

ST. CLEARS NOTES It is with sincere regret we have to record vha death of Mr. Wm. Griffiths (late of Cwmdwyfr.in, and now of Bankyfelin) on the 12th :nst., ar 118 residence, at the age of 68 years. The decea.3 who was very well known and highly respected, bad suffered from a painful internal r-o-npla' n t' which he had borne with wonderful fortitude, so that his death came as a great surprise to those who were not aware of the serious nature of his malady. He leaves a widow and family of grown-up -ilild--en with whom much sympathy is felt. The funeral was held at Newchurch on the following Thursday at 2 o'clock. Mr. Evan James, saddler, Three Bells, St. (Hears, has in his possession a commentary upon the ttle- page. of which is the following:—"Esboniad y Werin, sef Nodiadau Eglurhaol ar y Testament Newydd, gan Joseph Williams, Bethlehem, St. Clears. Llanelly: Argraffwyd gan John Thomas, Heol-y-dwfr, 1847." It would be interesting to have a life history of the rev. gentleman. Perhaps some reader will oblige. The burial of Mr. T. H. Phillips, Bournemouth House, whose death was recorded in our last week's issue, took place last Thursday week at Bethlehem I. Chapel. The immense number of people who had gathered from far and near to pay their last tribute of respect to his memory testified in a remarkable manner to the regard in which he was generally held in the district. The Rev. D. G. Williams officiated at the house, while the following ministers spoke at the graveside:—Rev. Dan Davies, Fish- guard; Rev. D. D. Lewis, Seion. St .Clears; Rev. R. Gimblett, Salem; Rev. D. S. Davies, Login; Rev. Morgan Jones, Whitland, and Mr. Patagonia Lewis, and representing his Carmarthen friends. Universal sympathy is expressed for the young widow and the family in their sad and sudden bereavement. The Church festival was held last Tuesday week in the St. Clears (St. Mary) Church, when choirs from Laugharne, Pendine, St. Clears, Mydrim, Tumble, and Llandovery. The special sermon was preached by the Rev. D. Watcyn Morgan, M.A., vicar of Llanelly. The organist for the occasion was Mr. H. Malkin, F.R.C.O., St. Peter's, Carmarthen, and the conductor. Mr. Brookes, F.R.C.O.. Christ Church Carmarthen. The day being beautifully fine, added much to the pleasure of the festival.
