"GWALCH EBRILL DEAD "Such was the sad intelligence conveyed to W.L. Myles of Kingston yesterday afternoon, Daniel James, better known by his countrymen as Gwalch Ebrill, was a poet of no mean pretension, yet he was one of the most unassuming characters among the bards of the eisteddfod. His genial open countenance was always greeted with a hearty welcome. He was a native of Carmarthenshire, South Wales, emigrated to the United States twenty years ago, resided at Drifton, Hazleton, Mahanoy City, and finally settled at Lansford, Carbon County, where he breathed his last on Thursday, and will be buried from his late home on Monday afternoon, March 12. Mr. James leaves a wife, and one son and one daughter." Nancy Cook Pasadena, MD, USA
