Llwyd ap Iwan writes that he recently received a postcard from Myfanwy and her family which mentioned that they had travelled 44 miles in 5 hours on the 'iron horse' (railway). He hopes that they are all well. He says that he has not received any word from his parents since they returned from Llanwrtyd, but he was glad to hear that his father's health was improving. He recently received a letter from his brother, Mihangel: he had passed two examinations but still had the final to sit.
