A bound volume of letters to Fr. Henry Rope from Andrew Hilliard Atteridge (1852-1941), 3 Killowen Villas, Isleworth, Middlesex. The volume is annotated on spine ‘Letters to Father H.E.G. Rope / II’. The letters refer mainly to literary matters, Catholic publications, and contemporary politics in Britain and in the Irish Free State. Some of the Atteridge’s letters suggest a degree of hostility to the leadership of Cumann na nGaedheal and a sympathy for the republican opposition. The file also includes letters from Fr. Andrew Macardle SJ (St. Francis Xavier, Upper Gardiner Street, Dublin), and Nuala Moran (‘The Leader’ Office, 205 Pearse Street, Dublin).
