Scope and content
- Correspondence involving M.T. Cooney, Killucan, Co. Westmeath, R. Ryan, Arthur O’Hagan & Son, solicitors, +McQuaid, Fr. M.P. O’Connell, Secretary, and G. Connellan, Westland Row, relating to the investment in the film The Divine Tragedy. Those who invested in this venture did so as they believed that the film was being sponsored by +McQuaid and the other Irish bishops. The project fell through and the investors assumed that their money would be returned to them. A court case followed and investors were awarded 50% of their contributions.
