        The funeral of Mrs. Scott, Pentre, arranged for gentlemen, was largely attended on Saturday afternoon, in spite of the inclement weather. Local tradesmen were present in large numbers, paying their last tributes to one who had led a very quiet and unostentatious life for very many years in Pentre. Her readiness to assist in good causes and her kindness to neighbours were two outstanding virtues, to which Canon Lewis referred at the service at the house. At the service at Treorchy Cemetery, the Revs. - Griffiths and - Philipant assisted the rev. Canon, and the singing was conducted by Mr. David Jones (organist).

        I wasn't able to positively identify this grave, as the stone has fallen with the inscribed side downwards and is thus unreadable. I located the plot from the diagram, and also looked at the surrounding stones to check that I hadn't miscounted.
