A bound volume containing the correspondence of Fr. Henry Rope. The volume is annotated on the spine ‘Letters to Father H.E.G. Rope / VI’. The volume includes several letters from Aodh de Blacam. Other correspondents include Fr. James Routledge (St. Dunstan’s, Moston, Manchester), Lillian Metge (Yew Tree House, Chester Road, Erdington, Birmingham, reverse of the letter has a printed handbill by Metge titled ‘No Vote – No Register’), Eoin O’Mahony (auditor, university philosophical society, Cork), H.S. Dean (editor of ‘The Universe’), Fr. Stephen M. Browne SJ (Miltown Park, Dublin), Fr. Joseph Keating SJ (editor of ‘The Month’), Wilfrid Scawen Blunt, Patrick Langford Beazley (editor of ‘The Catholic Times’), Fr. P.J.

The first item in the volume is a letter from Father Rope to Fr. Senan and refers to his archive of correspondence from Aodh de Blacam which he will send to the friar. Reference is also made to the disposition of his letters from George Noble Plunkett and ‘other Irish letters which seem to me well worth preserving … in your archives’. (12 July 1951).
