Letter from Seán O'Sullivan

Letter from Seán O'Sullivan to Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. referring to a cover design mostly likely for 'The Capuchin Annual'.

Copy Letter from Jack B. Yeats

Copy letter from Jack B. Yeats (1871-1957) to Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. Yeats refers to a 'loan exhibition' which Fr. Senan wants to organize for the artist. Yeats writes 'I am afraid that such an exhibition would be against the sale of my paintings. The suggestion might come to people that I had retired'. A later letter from Yeats in the volume states that he would be in favour of such an exhibition to be held in 1945.

Letter from Micheál Ó Ciánain

A letter and signed print of Micheál Ó Ciánain (Michael Keenan), a piper from Shercock in County Cavan, to Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. His letter refers to a local tradition regarding Andrew Campbell (1711-1769), the Bishop of Kilmore, who was known as the ‘the Piper Bishop’ during the Penal era. Ó Ciánain explains how the prelate ‘disguised himself as a piper’ with the instrument serving as ‘a Bell to call the flock together at a time when no Bell could be heard’.

Letter from Jack B. Yeats

Letter from Jack B. Yeats (1871-1957), 18 Fitzwilliam Square, Dublin, to Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. and Fr. Gerald McCann OFM Cap., thanking them for their generous gift (seemingly a pen). Yeats writes 'I hope it will take the bit in its teeth and write handsome and beautiful thoughts for me – what a wonderful thing would be a pen which could only write the truth'.

Military Tattoo, Dublin

Photographic prints of an Irish military tattoo at the Royal Dublin Society (RDS) arena in Dublin.

The reference to ‘Eoghan Ruadh Ó Néill’s Army’ in the caption refers to the centrepiece of the tattoo, a recreation of O’Neill’s famous victory at the Battle of Benburb (5 June 1646) during the Irish Confederate Wars.
