Letters from John Haughton Steele

Four letters from John Haughton Steele (1850-1920) to Fr. Henry Rope. The letters refer to studies and preparation for his ordination in Rome as a Catholic priest (he was previously an Anglican rector). Reference is also made to the Pontifical Irish College in Rome.

Letters from Mary MacSwiney

Letters from Mary MacSwiney

Letters from Mary MacSwiney (Máire Nic Shuibhne, 1872-1942) to Fr. Henry Rope. Two of the letters are copies (Rope notes that the copies were made in 1947 and that he deposited the originals in the archives of the Pontifical Irish College in Rome). One of the copy letters (dated 21 Nov. 1922) refers to Mary MacSwiney’s treatment by the Free State authorities. It reads ‘The hardest part of my trial here is being deprived of the Sacraments as I have not succeeded in finding a priest who will be satisfied to hear the confession of my sins and let my political convictions alone’. The original letter (26 Oct. 1930) refers to the ‘terrible airship disaster’ involving R 101, a British rigid airship. The disaster claimed the lives of forty-eight of the fifty-four people on board including Fr. Henry Rope’s younger brother, Squadron Leader Frederick Michael Rope.

Letters from George Noble Plunkett

Letters from George Noble Plunkett

Letters from George Noble Plunkett (1851-1948), 40 Elgin Road, Dublin, to Fr. Henry Rope. The letters include references to Plunkett’s desire to establish an ‘Academy of Christian Art’ in Dublin, Catholic literature, Father Rope’s visits to the Plunkett residence, and to contemporary political matters and public affairs in both Britain and Ireland. A recurring theme in the correspondence is Plunkett’s continuing republican opposition to the post-Treaty settlement in Ireland. An extract from a letter
written on 21 November 1929 reads:

‘I don’t want to write about politics, but I remind you that “if you want peace, you must prepare for war”; and, that a resolute nation, whose spokesmen refuse to accept threats, generally secures its liberty. We had won, when [Arthur] Griffith and [Michael] Collins surrendered: I have been assured of this by well informed unionists. I doubt that any man today is slave enough to echo John O’Connell’s dictum. “Nuff ced”, as the Yankees put it.
I think you asked me why we are for a Republic. Well, how otherwise could we get rid of a foreign King? And a “class” Upper House”? And the tradition of Heaven-born Ministers? We are republicans because we are a nation of aristocrats, and so all equal; a true democracy.
My pen is running dry.
Yours very sincerely,
G.N. Count Plunkett
To be continued in our next’.

The file also includes some letters from George Noble Plunkett’s wife (Josephine Plunkett née Cranny), and daughter Mary Plunkett. The letter from Mary Plunkett refers to the death of Count Plunkett. It reads ‘The poor old man was in bed for more than three years. We expected that he would go very quickly. Instead of that he was dying for twelve days. The poor old body was worn out, but that strong valiant spirit held on. He suffered a lot, so much that we prayed that God would take him. The end was very quiet’. (5 May 1948). A letter to Fr. Senan Moynihan from Fr. Henry Rope in this file refers to his donation of Plunkett's correspondence ‘for your Archives, which may also one day be of historical interest’. He also notes that he has given some of his correspondence with Count Plunkett to Saint Isidore’s College in Rome. (20 Dec. 1951)

Letters from Douglas Hyde

A file of letters from Douglas Hyde to Fr. Richard Henebry. Many of the letters are signed ‘An Craoibhín’. A letter (17 Mar. 1910) refers to the need for external examiners in Irish for a university board of education. Other letters refer to various texts in Irish for a matriculation examination for University College Dublin and matters pertaining to travelling studentships. An undated letter from Hyde (written at Ratra, Frenchpark County Roscommon) reads ‘As to your scholarships and the valuable work you have done in Celtic phonology and language there can be only one opinion. Your long course of study in Germany under the most distinguished dialectologists of Europe has given you advantages such as none of our native Irish scholars at home possess …’.

Correspondence re the Publication of Fr. Richard Henebry’s ‘A Handbook of Irish Music’

A file including correspondence and related papers re the publication of Fr. Richard Henebry’s ‘A Handbook of Irish Music’. This work was eventually published posthumously by Henebry’s colleagues in University College Cork in 1928. The book was based on a surviving Henebry manuscript which Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. had acquired. Portions of the text were published by Fr. Senan in ‘The Father Mathew Record’. The 1928 publication was edited by Tadhg Ó Donnchadha (‘Torna’), Henebry’s successor as Professor of Irish in UCC.

The file includes correspondence between Sir Bertram Windle and Carl Gilbert Hardebeck on the value of Henebry’s manuscript (1914-16). Windle later affirmed that he did not publish the book at this time (1916) due to the financial cost of such an undertaking (see Windle’s letter to Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. on 4 July 1924). The correspondence from 1924 onward includes letters between Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap., John English & Co., and several other printing and publishing companies, re the publication of Henebry’s manuscript. The file also includes letters from Seán Ó Currín, Eoin (John) Henebry, William Frederick Paul Stockley, Tomás de Faoite (Clonlisk, County Offaly), Edmund Downey, Fr. Laurence Dowling OFM Cap. (re the publication of extracts of the Henebry manuscript in the ‘The Father Mathew Record’), Fr. Michael Sheehan, Frank Ryan (the file includes several letters from Ryan written in Irish), Mac Giolla Bhríde (William Gibson, 2nd Baron Ashbourne), Fr. Maurus Phelan OCSO, William O’Brien (Bellevue, Mallow), Tadhg Ó Donnchadha (‘Torna’), Seán Ó Ciarghusa, Joseph B. Whelehan, Liam de Róiste, Fr.

Patrick MacSwiney, Fr. Patrick Power, Seán Ó Floinn, Patrick J. Merriman, and Fr. Canice Bourke OFM Cap. Includes letters to Tadhg Ó Donnchadha (‘Torna’) forwarding subscriptions for Henebry’s ‘A Handbook of Irish Music’ along with advertisement notices, lists of subscribers, order forms, and newspaper clippings.

A letter in this file from Eoin Henebry to Fr. Senan refers to a manuscript titled ‘The Fair Hosts of the Books of Erin’ written by Fr. Richard Henebry which his brother suggests has already been published. He mentions that all the ‘old stuff has been gone over by Seán Ó Currín, Seán Ó Floinn, and by Phil O’Neill’. (27 Aug. 1924).

An Craos-Deamhan

A file containing an Irish language manuscript titled ‘An Craos-Deamhan’ (with English translation) by An tAthair Peadar Ó Laoghaire. The manuscript (with the accompanying translation) was seemingly sent for serial publication in the ‘Cork Sun’ newspaper. The newspaper ran from 18 April 1903 to 1905. The text was sent to Máire Ní Shíthe, the Irish-language editor of the ‘Cork Sun’ (43 Grand Parade, Cork). The text relates to Cathal mac Finguine (died 742). The tale was edited in Irish with an Irish-English glossary by Ó Laoghaire in 1905. It was published by An tAthair Peadar as ‘An Craos–Deamhan ó’n seana–sgéal 'Aislinge Meic Con Glinne' (Dublin, 1905). An envelope in the file is annotated in the hand of Fr. Albert Bibby OFM Cap. and reads: ‘The original manuscript of ‘An Craos-Deamhan’ by an tAthair Peadar Ó Laoghaire with his own English translation’.
