Disgrifiadau

Disgrifiad gan George Eyre Evans (cyfieithiad):
"Ar ddyddiad y llythyr hwn, daliwyd Frances Evans, y ferch a arweiniodd Merched Beca drwy wyrcws Caerfyrddin ar ddydd Llun, 19 Mehefin, yng Nghilgwyn-Uchaf, ger Llan-newydd. Ymddangosodd o flaen y llys am 12 o'r gloch, a cafodd fechnïaeth tan ei hymddangosiad yn y Brawdlysoedd i ateb y cyhuddiad yn ei herbyn. Cynigwyd gwobr o £300 ar 12 Mehefin, wedi'i arwyddo gan y Cyrnol Trevor, pe bai'r prif derfysgwr yn nherfysg Talog yn cael ei ddal a'i ddedfrydu'n euog, ynghyd â'i bedwar cynorthwy-ydd. Bydda'r wobr yn cael ei thalu gan Lywodraeth Ei Mawrhydi."
Adysgrif:
"Carmarthen, 3 July, 1843. To W. Chambers, Esq., Llanelly House.
Sir,
In the present disturbed state of this county, I think it requisite that the Petty Session over which you preside shall be assembled as frequently as possible, and that although the disturbances should not have reached your neighbourhood, that Special Constables for the preservation of the peace should be forthwith sworn in.
I have also to request that yourself and those Gentlemen who act with you, would use every effort in your power to maintain order by going frequently amongst your neighbours, or by calling them together at convenient places and explaining to them the necessity of obedience to the Laws, and of avoiding all connection with those who disturb the peace of the county.
Copies of an address which I have issued to the county shall, as soon as possible be forwarded to you for distribution, and which I have to request you to circulate as widely as possible.
I wish also that in those parts which have been or are still disturbed, and more particularly where Troops, are placed a copy of this letter may be sent to all such Magistrates as are from home, with my earnest request, which I hearby convey to them, to return to their respective districts with as little delay as possible unless they are unavoidably prevented.
I am, Sir, Your obedient servant, Geo. Rice Trevor, Vice Lt., Coy. of Carmarthen."
