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.

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’.
