        FUNERAL OF MR. T. BEYNON EVANS, J.P.

        TRIBUTES TO A PROMINENT PONTYPRIDD MAGISTRATE.

        The funeral of Mr. T. B. Evans, J.P., of Bristol House, Cilfynydd, Pontypridd, took place on Thursday at Glyntaff Cemetery. The first part of the service was held at Moriah Congregational Church, Cilfynydd, where the Rev. Richard Williams (the pastor) officiated, assisted by the Rev. Edryd Jones, of Bradner-street, London, the late pastor. Well-known hymns were sung in Welsh, Mr. T. Llewellyn Jenkins being the organist.

Evans, J.P., agent to the Albion Colliery, Cilfynydd (on behalf of the public authorities), and Mr. William Jones, J.P., representing the local magistrates. Mr. Jones remarked that for many years he was a colleague of Mr. Evans', and he found that his desire was always to do good for his fellow-men. For the ward in which he lived he did valuable work. All he could do he did, very often at considerable sacrifice.
