One branch passes northward, near the towns of Ellesmere, Whitchurch, Nantwich, and the city of Chester, to Ellesmere Port on the Mersey; another, in a south-easterly direction, through the middle of Shropshire towards Shrewsbury on the Severn; and a third, in a south-westerly direction, by the town of Oswestry, to the Montgomeryshire Canal near Llanymynech; its whole extent, including the Chester Canal, incorporated with it, being about 112 miles.
The corps d'armée, under the Earl of Lincoln and Roger Mortimer, besieged and reduced Dolvorwyn castle in Montgomeryshire. The third was led into Cardigan by Payne de Chaworth, who ravaged the country with such vigor that the South Welsh being probably disaffected to a prince not of their own lineage surrendered the castle of Stradewi and made a general submission.
"Oh, anwl! I daresay it was. I never thought of that! There's a pity now; but try again to read that she read it." "Well, let me see," said Cardo, taking the faded paper to the window. "Mrs. Besborough Power?" "That's it!" said Nance. "Carew?" "No; that's not right." "Carne?" "Yes; that's what she called it." "Montgomeryshire?" "No; she wrote there and the letter was sent back."
His love for the beauties of nature amounted almost to a passion, and when living at The Bank, near Ketley, it was his great delight in the summer evenings to retire with his pipe to a rural seat commanding a full view of the Wrekin, the Ercall Woods, with Cader Idris and the Montgomeryshire hills in the distance, and watch the sun go down in the west in his glory.
MACHYNLLETH, pronounced Machuncleth, is one of the principal towns of the district which the English call Montgomeryshire, and the Welsh Shire Trefaldwyn or the Shire of Baldwin's town, Trefaldwyn or the town of Baldwin being the Welsh name for the town which is generally termed Montgomery.
As I did not intend to journey farther this day than Machynlleth, a principal town in Montgomeryshire, distant only twelve miles, I did not start from Mallwyd till just before noon. Mallwyd is a small but pretty village. The church is a long edifice standing on a slight elevation on the left of the road.
"Aren't you ever going to walk to the wickets again?" asked Blair. "Aren't you ever going to walk back to the pavilion again?" asked Archie. "What will Montgomeryshire say?" wondered Myra in tones of awe. "May I have your belt and your sand-shoes?" I begged. "It's the cider," said Thomas. "I knew he was overdoing it." Simpson fixed his glasses firmly on his nose and looked round at us benignly.
Besborough Power, Carne I will try Carne anyway," and next day she wrote to her sister addressing the letter: Miss Gwladys Powell, c/o Mrs. Besborough Power, Carne, Montgomeryshire. In a few days her letter was returned. "Not known," said Valmai; "then we have not read the address aright. I will go myself, Nance. I will go next week."
The same tale seems to have been conveyed to Wales, where it is related of a parish in Montgomeryshire; but a Welsh poem that tells the story rightly attributes it to Cornwall. And yet it is possible that the same event happened in Wales also; a few years since the newspapers related an almost identical incident as having occurred in Russia.
Socialist and philanthropist, b. at Newton, Montgomeryshire, had for his object the regeneration of the world on the principles of socialism. His sincerity was shown by the fact that he spent most of the fortune, which his great capacity for business enabled him to make, in endeavours to put his theories into practice at various places both in Britain and America.
