My indebtedness to this book is very great, as also to other writings by the same learned author, the late Reverend Dr. Hugh Williams of Bala, though I have been driven by the evidence as it seemed to me to form very different conclusions as to the de excidio Britanniæ. To him, as also to the late Mr. Egerton Phillimore (their faces I never saw), I wish to express my deepest gratitude for their personal interest in my efforts and their ever-ready and ever-generous sympathy.
