Golygfa 10 Daw'r ymwelydd yn ei ôl. Mae ganddo gamera neu ffôn-gamera yn ei law ac â ati i dynnu lluniau'r capel. Wedi ysbaid daw'r tywysydd o'i ôl. |
|
Ymwelydd |
Did you get hold of her? |
Tywysydd |
Yes. She can't come up though, unfortunately. She fell last week – going into Spar. Still feeling a bit shaky. |
Ymwelydd |
Oh, dear. That's the worst with old age. Didn't break anything, did she? |
Tywysydd |
No-no. Just shaky. That's why she wasn't here last Sunday, I suppose. I should have thought. |
Ymwelydd |
Could I call with her, d'you think? |
Tywysydd |
Oh, yes. By all means. Although... |
Ennyd. |
|
Ymwelydd |
Nervous of strangers? |
Tywysydd |
No-no, it's not that. It's... well... She told me what she knows – what she remembers about Mrs. Jones, Tŷ Capel – Chapel House. |
Ymwelydd |
My great-grandmother. Yes. Well, that's just it, you see. |
Ennyd. |
|
Tywysydd |
Look, how do you know... Why do you say she's your great-grandmother – Mrs. Jones? |
Ymwelydd |
Well – because she was. The letters – you've seen the letters. From gra'ma to her – her mother. |
Tywysydd |
Yes. I can see that... well, that it looks like that. |
Ymwelydd |
Looks like that? |
Tywysydd |
Have you looked at the records – your grandmother's birth certificates – things like that? |
Ymwelydd |
(Hanner chwerthin.) No! I've only just started taking an interest, really – as I said. |
Tywysydd |
Mm. Well, perhaps it would've been better if you'd done a bit of checking first – before coming all the way here. |
Ymwelydd |
Look – what are you saying. That gran'ma Mati wasn't my gran'ma? |
Tywysydd |
No. What I'm saying – what Mrs Williams told me on the phone was that Mrs. Jones Tŷ Capel – Chapel House - wasn't her mother. |
(Ennyd.) |
|
Tywysydd |
Wasn't your great-grandmother. |
Ymwelydd |
You sure? |
Tywysydd |
Sorry, but yes. She's quite certain. She remembers Mati – your grandmother – well, remembers her coming to the chapel here when she was on holiday. Always stayed at the Marine, she said. |
Ymwelydd |
Marine? |
Tywysydd |
The hotel – Aberystwyth. She'd done well for herself, hadn't she? |
Ymwelydd |
Oh yes. Yes. Sister Jones by the time she met gra'mpa. But – those letters... |
Tywysydd |
Mrs. Jones Tŷ Capel didn't have a daughter. Just a son. |
Ymwelydd |
A son! |
Tywysydd |
With your grandmother's things, were there any letters from someone called Ifan – Evan-John? |
Ymwelydd |
Evan John? – No. Don't remember that name at all. Should there've been? |
Tywysydd |
Perhaps not. Once she'd made the break. Gone to Birmingham. It was Birmingham she went to to start with, wasn't it? |
Ymwelydd |
Yes. Who was this Evan John then? Is he related to me? |
Tywysydd |
Could have been – in a way – were it not for Lloyd George. |
Ymwelydd |
Lloyd George? |
Tywysydd |
Lloyd George. Lord Kitchener. Pryce Gogerddan. All those who drew them in and sent them off. |
Ymwelydd |
I see. Were it not for the war, I could have been Welsh! |
Tywysydd |
Sort of. |
Ennyd. |
|
Ymwelydd |
So gra'ma wasn't Mrs. Jones' daughter. |
Tywysydd |
No. She wasn't. |
Ymwelydd |
She wasn't related to her at all. That's... well... |
Ennyd. |
|
Ymwelydd |
D'you think we could call by Mrs. Williams – would you mind? Get the whole story. There's so much to sort out in my head. |
Tywysydd |
Of course. Of course. |
Y ddau yn symud i fynd. Yn ymyl y drws, mae'r ymwelydd yn sefyll yn sydyn. |
|
Ymwelydd |
This Evan John – what happened to him? Did he make it? Get back? |
Tywysydd |
I don't know, sorry. We'll have to ask Mrs. Williams. She'll know – if anyone knows. |
Y ddau yn ymadael. |
