mysterious light

Another time — The same person coming home by night from a journey, when near Ty yn y Llwyn [Monmouthshire],saw the resemblance of fire, the west side of the river, on his right hand; and looking towards the Mountain near the rock Tarren y Trwyn, on his left hand, all of a sudden, saw the fire near him on one side, and the appearance of a mastiff dog on the other side, at which he was exceedingly terrified. The appearance of a mastiff dog was a most dreadful sight. He called at Ty yn y Llwyn, requesting the favour of a person to accompany him home? The man of the house being acquainted with him, sent two of his servants with him home. My thoughts of Mr T. H. M. are, that he was a man of an affable disposition, innocent and harmless, and a respecter of what is good in his later days. His children also; his son and two daughters were godly and religious. He was the grand-father of that eminent and famous preacher of the Gospel Mr. Thomas Lewis, of Lanharan, in Glamorganshire. Jones
