E. Tegla Davies

1928 portrait of Edward Tegla Davies Edward Tegla Davies (1880–1967) was a Welsh Wesleyan Methodist minister and a popular Welsh language writer, born at Llandegla-yn-Iâl, Denbighshire, north Wales.

His works include a number of children's books which display his rich imagination and sometimes surreal humour, the novel ''Gŵr Pen y Bryn'' (1923), short stories and a series of essays. Among the latter is the collection ''Gyda'r Hwyr'' (1957), including ''Y Bedd Hwnnw'' ("That Grave") recording a visit to the grave of the Blessed John Henry Newman at Rubery (Longbridge) near Birmingham, and ''Y Wraig o'r Wyddgrug'' ("The Woman from Mold"), in which he meets, in Manchester, someone who knew the Welsh novelist, Daniel Owen, in her youth.

A Cabinet Office release in 2012 shows that he declined an OBE in the New Year Honours in 1963. Provided by Wikipedia
