Allow us to relate another incident in the lives of the Ladies of Llangollen that fell under our observation, under the following heading:—_Kindness creates kindness and liberality_. Mr. Thomas Jones, of Bachau Mill, and the minister of Penybryn Chapel were the collectors for the Bible Society through the township of Bachau, from year to year, for thirty years. Penymaes being in their district, the collectors called there as well as every other house in the township, and were received with a smile, wishes of success, and a handsome subscription from the ladies’ maids, Misses Elizabeth and Jane Hughes, and something from the other servants. Either Miss Jane or Miss Elizabeth would always present the collecting book to the ladies. But the book, for years, would be returned from the ladies’ room, without anything to gladden the collectors’ hearts. However, one year, Miss Jane said, with a double smile, and appearance of confidence on her face, “Please, I will take your book to Lady Eleanor and Miss Ponsonby.” She soon returned with a yellow piece that did gladden the hearts of the collectors, and added, “You must be sure, every year, to call on the ladies.” And so they did as long as the last of them remained on earth, and met with equal success and cheerfulness. The collectors had no clue to the welcome change at Penymaes, in collecting, for years after the death of Miss Ponsonby. In course of time, Miss June Hughes (now Mrs. Roberts, Ormonde Cottage, Berwyn Street,) was united in marriage to Mr. Edward Roberts, timber merchant, and attended the means of grace at Penybryn Chapel, and became a useful member there. When the minister of Penybryn was taking tea at her house, she asked him, “Do you remember the time you and Mr. Jones received the first half-sovereign for the Bible Society from the dear ladies!” “Yes, as it were yesterday, but we know not the cause of our success.” “Well, I shall tell you. Do you remember Lady Eleanor’s severe illness about two years before she died?” The minister replied, “I do, and shall never forget it.” “You, therefore, remember your praying so earnestly for her, and for her recovery, that you, and many of the congregation, were moved to tears? Next day, someone, that was present at Penybryn, described at Plas Newydd the remarkable prayer, and its effects upon yourself and those present. When the ladies heard of the prayer they felt so much that they remembered the words of the Apostle James (chap. v. 16), ‘The _effectual fervent_ prayer of a righteous man availeth much.’ And Lady Eleanor soon recovered, and was restored to her usual health: and both believed that the God of the Bible had saved her life, and restored her health, and determined, to the end of their days, to subscribe for the Bible; and so they did, as you know.” The minister thanked Mrs. Roberts for the encouraging relation that revealed the secret of the collectors’ success, on behalf of the British
