Journal of the Rev. William Rees, Llechryd

  • NLW MS 12863F.
  • File
  • 1880-1917

Journal, 1880-1917, of the Rev. William Rees, minister of the Independent Church ['Yr Hen Gapel'] in the village of Llechryd, co. Cardigan, 1864-1880, and of Tabernacle Church in the same village, 1880-19 [ ]. The latter church had been established and a new chapel built by the said William Rees and his followers in 1880, after they had seceded from the Independent Church as a result of friction arising from conflicting views on a number of topics. The contents of the volume consist basically of an account of the writer's life and of the history of the new church from 1880 onwards, but the narrative is interspersed with lengthy passages and entire sections devoted to religious and moral declamation and mysticism. The writer sometimes expresses his thoughts in verse. Biographical data relating to the writer's life prior to 1880 are found on pp. 437 et seq. Inset are a holograph letter from W. A. Williams (honorary secretary of the New Church Missionary Society), Swansea, to [the Rev. William] Rees, 1914 (greetings from the Society's annual assembly), and a holograph letter from John Thomas, Llandilo, also by inference to William Rees, 1911 (an invitation to preach in Horeb Chapel, Llandilo).
