Isaac Williams (the Doctor)
does not know whether Frost or Zephaniah
Williams attended at Dukes Town since
the 12th of August nor at Black wood since
Whitsuntide but saw him at the Blaina
about two months since Isaac Williams
does not know whether the Brick man of
Rhymney attended at Dukes Town he
does not even know the man.

back.
