Adysgrif:
"Carmarthen,
4 October, 1843,
My dear Sir,
I have been too much occupied Monday and yesterday from writing to you as I should have done, so soon as I thought you were returned to Llangennech. I do not see any means whatever of bringing your Magistrates to Llanelly from any other part of the County, but yet some means must be found, if you can devise them, for a Magistrate to go to Pontyberem if his presence there should be requisite.
I hope we shall be able to put some Troops there, but it cannot, I fear, be just yet; in the meantime I should have the Police there.
We will go and see the buildings.
We were yesterday at Forest, it is a perfect ruin and useless entirely, which I am sorry for.
I wish you would kindly ascertain the amount of accomodation there is at Pontardulais either for the Cavalry or Infantry, or for Police. Would the people of the public-house we were in with you be able to give it up for our use in that way? For the Infantry must be together in one house or in two adjoining ones, and not less in number than from 30 to 40.
Will you see Stevens the Policeman we have at Llanelly, but who was sent privately, with a comrade - Francis Chambers' man knows where he is - and tell him to come here with the other man as they are found out. The man has written to tell me so.
I am glad to know the gate at Tir-fran has been put up again by some of the farmers.
We are getting plenty of information against "Scuborfawr"; anything against "Dai" will be use.
Yours very truly,
Geo. Rice Trevor."
