LETTER. J.G. Ashmore, Manager, London to Robert Roberts, Quarries Manager writes "I hope by the economies that you will see your way to effect, there may be a chance of winning some slate out of Cwmorthin at a profit. Also, he writes of "Penrhyn" Young seems to be making a bid for the men to come in again. His interview with "Manchester Guardian" comes out much in his favour, but he is not in personal touch and sympathy with his men, & from what I have heard, never will be, therefore we may always expect ructions, so long as existing arrangements last".
