CORRESPONDENCE. We do not hold ourselves responsible for thp opinions of our correspondents. AN APPEAL FROM BARMOUTH BOYS AT NORTHAMPTON. To the Editor. Sir,- Having read in your last week's issue edition of the kindness of many of the Barmouth people to the Boys that have left for Newtown Quarters, there are fifteen of us from Barmouth who are going on active service in a few weeks time, and some of us have belonged to the Colours for many years. As you are Well aware that the weather is getting colder and many of us are not fully equipped with uuderclothing, etc. We 4 humbly ask you to give us the same kindness as you have given to our com- rades that have left Barmouth for Newtown, This appeal comes from fifteen Bar- mouth Boys now stationed at Northam- pton. Trusting that you will publish same in your valuable paper. On behalf of the Barmouth Boys, Uorpl. Edward Price, E Company 7th Batt. R.W.F., Northampton.

Anfonodd gohebydd ymgyfenwai ei hun -11 Meirion yr hanesyn canlyuol i un o'r hen fisoiion Cymreig yn A v: 3t, 1819, gan sicrhau ei gywirdeb, carys (meddai) derbyniasai ef gan un o'r dyn- ion oedd yn y cwmni ar y daith y cy- feirir ati. Fel hyn mae'r banes :—' Yn nyddiall yr hen Barchedig Daniel R )b- erts, yr oedd cyrchu mawr o dair-swydd- ar-ddeg Cymru i Langeithio, i wrai:do ar ei eirber ddoniau. Ac oddeutu y flwyddyn 1774 yr oedd amryw ohor-om yn feibion a merched yn dyehweiyd adref oddiyno i Swydd Gaernarfon, ac wedi i ni ddyfod i Swydd Feirionydd, yr oedd yn rhaid i ni gtoeei y traeth brys- iasom ein goreu i ddytod at yr afon 'Mawddach) mewn pryd, ac yr oeddym wrth gerdded a rhedeg wedi chwysu yn fawr. Galwasom ar y bobl oedd yn pertbyn i'r cwch am iddynt ddyfod i'n ceisio, and bwy a'n cadwasant yno byd onid oeddym wedi myned yn sal iawn i gyd, a pban ddaetbant i'n ceisio a chroesi obonom yr afon, yr oedd bi yn nos; a pban ddaethom at dre'r Bernio yr oedd yr boll bob] wedi codi allan i'n disgwyl, a gwneyd gwawd ohonom gyrasom rai o'r dynion i chwilio am lety i'r lleill. Cerddasant yr holl dref, ond ni cbawsant letty yn unman. Yr oedd hi erbyn byn yn agos i haner nos. Aeth dwy o'r meecl-ed at ryw dy, ac yr oedd y wraig yn sefyll yn y drws gofynasant iddi a roddai hi le iddynt i orwedd rhyw ycbydig, oherwydd eu bod wedi blino yn fawr, ac yn bur sal. Hithau a gododd ei llais ac a waeddodd yn uchel, I Na chewch myn d—1; pe trengech o'm blaen ni roddwn i chwi lymaid o ddwr glan Cyn un oir, glocb, enynodd tan yn nhy y wraig yma, ac a'i llosgodd i'r llawr ynghyda'r hyn oil a feddai hi, ac ni cbafodd ty neb arall niwed, er fod tai o bob tu iddo. Deebreuodd ei cbymydo- gion ei gwawdio hi a'r geiriau mwyaf gwarthus; a barnasant mai am iddi omedd rboddi Hetty i'r merched y bu byn. Ar ol hyn agorodd pawb eu drws i ni a cbawsom lonydd i fyned bytb ar ol hyny.O'l' Herald Cgmraeg.
