CIRCULAR LETTER: from a Welsh layman opposing the Bill which had been introduced by the Bishop of Bangor to empower the Bishops of Welsh Dioceses to facilitate the provision for English services in certain parishes in Wales, on the grounds that it would overthrow the rights of individuals and would be depreciating the Welsh clergy, and cause a division from England. Printed. Attached: COPY LETTER: [March 1863], John Jones, Rector of Llanaber, Glany-Don, Barmouth, to the Right Honourable Spencer H. Walpole, M.P., making proposals for the modification of the above Bill to make the conditions for the granting of a licence more stringent. Printed. Attached: STATEMENT: [n.d.] of the causes which led to the introduction of the above Bill, which had arisen out of a dispute betweem Mr. Jelf and the Rector of the parish of Llanaber. Printed.
