Death of the Rev. Samuel Jones,…
Death of the Rev. Samuel Jones, R.D., Llangunnor. We regret to record the death of one of the oldest and most popular clergymen in the diocese in the person of thei Rev Samuel Jones, R.D., who expired 4t his residence, Llangunnor Vicarage, on Wednesday night, shortly after 10 o'clock. The deceased who was 83 years of age, graduated at Lompeler in 1842; was ordained deacon in 1844; and priest 1845. He held the curacy of Llangen- deirne 1844-47, and was vicar of Eglwysfair- glyntaf 1849-1865. Thence lie was appointed to the living of Llangunnor, which he held until his death. Despite his advanced age, lie enjoyed excellent health, and was as active as many men who were, thirty years his junior. He had been unable to take the .service at the church for the last few Sun- days, owing to an attack of bronchial pneu- monia. He was a fine type of the homely country parson of the old school, and was as interested in the everyday work of his ipiarishoniers as in Church affairs. He was a regular attendant and speaker at the meet- ings of the Carmarthenshire Chamber of Agriculture. The deceased leaves three sons and two daughters. One of his sons is Dr Valentine Jones, St. Clears; and one of his daughters is the wife of the Rev W. Ll. Rees, Vicar of Llangunnock.
Performance of "The Messiah"…
Performance of "The Messiah" at Llandilo. The public of Llandilo and its neighbourhood did justice to itself and to the Choral Society by assemb- ling in such large numbers at the Drill Hall, on the evening of the 23rd to listen to the Society's pro- duction of Handel's masterpiece, The Messiah." The spacious hall was packed to the door, and un. comfortable as it was for the majority of the adience, for three whole hours those composing it sat patiently and appreciatively listening to the varied strains that proceeded from the platform. To a Llandilo audience it must have been a treat, for the Messiah," what- ever may be its merits, compared with other oratorios is undoubtedly the one that the general public take most kinlly. From far away Dolaucothy came Sir James Hille-Johnes and his lady to hear it, whilst swarthy miners from Penygroes also helped to swell the audience. In truth, too m':ch credit must not be given to Llandilo itself, so largely was its neighbour- hood represented. It seems a pity that the Choral Society for lack of the support it so richly deserves, can not see its way to give its concerts "on two succes- sive nights, and it was a thousand pities that the "Messiah" should not have been given on two nights. Let a play be produced in Llandilo-that we are glad to forget, all about after we have seen it-and two nights are hardly sufficient, but for the production of one of the world's masterpieces in music that once heard is never forgotten, one night satisfies the public And this in Wales, too However, those who did attend had their reward. Not, of course, that the rendering was anything like perfection, but for a choir drawn entirely from the small town of Llandilo and the immediate locality, the rendering was such that only the most fastidious would carp at it. The weak part was the tenor, which only numbered about one liaif of either of the other parts, and this natur- ally made them a little timorous in attack, and once they ran quite away from their music, but immedate- ly recovered themselves. There is never any difficulty in finding plenty of good tenors for a male voice party for a village eisteddfod competition, but for some reason or other tenors hold aloof from the Choral Society. The trebles in Their sound is gone out were lax in taking up the opening phsase, and a few of them might with advantage have suppressed their voices in some sf the chorus. The alto and bass sang extremely well. Despite the few drawbacks alluded to, the choir maintained a good level of sing ing throughout and were frequently applauded. There was a marked response in most of the chorus and the periods were finished off with precision, and the intonation showed that they had been trained to value words and phrases. They were supported by an orchestra composed as follows :—First violins, Mr Hulley, Lieut. Col. Lloyd Harries and Mr Stuart Thompson 2ud violins, Mr R Hulley, Mr Ingram and Mr R. Jeffreys viola, Mr Tunbridge violin- cello, Lieut. Col. Close double bass, Mr Mi Smith flute, Mr W Hoin oboe, Mr A Phillips; clarionete, Mr Plummer; bassoon, Mr Draper; cornet, Mr Abram trombone, Mr Hanney; organ, Mr J H Thomas. The artistes were :-Soprano, Miss Ethel Lister contralto, Miss Mildred Jones tenor, Mr Seth Hughes bass, Mr David Hughes. The latter was the pick of them, and he was in grand form, and he sang with fine power and skill. He gave Why old the Nations with splendid gradation of expres- sion, and the audience insisted on an encore-the ouly one for the evening that was insisted on. He was also heard to advantage in The trumpet shall Sound." Miss Lister and Mr D Hughes both sang sympathetically, and their declamation was good, but perhaps neither was quite equal to the strain upon them. Miss Mildred Jones sang with rare judgment, and reverence of tone. Once more Mr R C Jenkins is to be congratulated on the success of this-the tenth-concert the choir has given under his conductorship. The president of the society is Lord Dynevor committee, The Hon. Gwladys Rice, Miss Lewis, Capel Issa, and Lieut Col. Lloyd Harries. To the Hon Misses Rice and Miss Lewis a good deal of the success of the Society is due, and to them it is due also that the Society has existed for nine years-an exceptionally long time for any Society of the kind in Llandilo, at any rate, to exist.

! Llandilo Notes.
Llandilo Notes. I was delighted to hear that on Good Friday last, the Volunteer Band, when heading the Rechabite procession at Llangadock, donned the sashes. There is nothing like when in Rome, doing as Rome does, providing you are a doing a good thing. — :o: — I see by some of the reports in the Glamorgan weeklies that the rr aster and mationship of Mr and Mrs D Williams, of Llandilo, at the Bridgend Work- house has been a great success. They have just terminated their first year of office, and on its ter- mination the Chairman and Cleik, at the annual meeting of the Guardians, spoke very highly of the efficient way with which they had discharged their duties under very trying circumstances. — o; — Seeing that it means such a good dinner, I was sur- prised that there was no competition at the last meet- ing of the Guardians, for membership of the Visiting Committee to the Asylum. Probably members are beginning to see that a good dinner is not everything. 0 It was a case of much cry and little wool" with Mr. 1). W. Lewis with regard to the representation of Brynamman on the Governing Body of the County School. He simply wasted the time of the Board I y inflicting a speech winhrut carrying it out to a logical conclusion, by dividing the Board on it. He showed that Brynamman was most unjustly treated, and then was satisfied. No wonder, say I, that the place should be so treated when such a Home Ruler as Mr. D. W. Lewis gets frightened, as he did on Saturday. And if any body wauts new blood in it, it is the Governing Body of the County School, -:0:- The members of the Board seemed genuinely glad that Co1. Morris would still be one of their number, tho' what the reporters have to say on the matter I do not care to enquire. But, at any rate, if the Colonel does give them a little extra writing to do, he does always manage to talk sense, which cannot be said of some of the talkers. Without doubt, the Council have never had in their midst a member who so thoroughly understood plans, and so thoroughly insisted in their being in accordance with the bye- laws. — :o: — Perhaps never was there more 3brrant nonsense talked on the Council, than .was talked on Saturday relative to the water supply for the Amman Valley. I I would very humbly tuggest that Mr. Herbert should give the members a few lessons on hydrostatics. -:0:- To wrat I gather, being no judge of such matters myself, the altos were altogether the better dressed at the Choral Society's concert. As to Miss Mildred Jones, even if her singing had not been a success, the ladies wonld have forgiven her because of the beautiful way in which she had done up her beautiful head of hair. The ladies were simply in raptures with it, at.d I anticipate to see them all now with- their hair done up a la mode Miss Mildred Jones.

CON W I L .
CON W I L SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—Whilo Mr John Evans, butcher, Greenhiil, in the above village, was driving home from Carmarthen on Saturday evening, about 6.30 o'clock, when entering the village his pony took fright and bolted. The other occupants of the trap were Mr Howells, Pantycerdin, and Mr James, Lleth'rmoel. When on the bridge the animal somehow turned suddenly from the middle of the road and the trap knocked against the wall with such a force that the three men were pitched clean over the side of the bridge -into the river. Fortunately the water was low at the time or the unfortunate gentlemen would have been carried away. It is miraculous how ihey escaped with so little injury. Evans and Howells, after a little time, were able to walk home, but James, who had the worse injuries had to be driven home in a trap, and is still suffering great paius in his back on account of the fall. The pony was was sdon stopped and did not seem any the worse after her gallop.
