Bound Volume

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. Connolly SJ (editor, ‘Studies, An Irish Quarterly Review’, 34 Lower Lesson Street, Dublin), Bridget Lynch (Clifden, County Galway), Mary Faherty (Kilronan, Aran Islands, County Galway), and Nuala Moran (‘The Leader’, 205 Pearse Street, Dublin). 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).

Bound Volume

A bound volume of letters to Fr. Henry Rope mainly from Andrew Hilliard Atteridge (1852-1941), 3 Killowen Villas, Isleworth, Middlesex, and from Fr. Joseph Keating SJ, (editor of ‘The Month’), 31 Farm Street, Berkeley Square, London. The volume is annotated on spine ‘Letters to Father H.E.G. Rope / V’. The file also includes a solitary letter from Mary Faherty (Kilronan, Aran Islands, County Galway). Faherty refers to the ‘Man of Aran’ film (1934) and suggests that it ‘didn’t do us any justice anyway, it is not the real Aran life that this generation saw’. (13 Jan. 1935). The Keating letters primarily refer to literary matters while the Atteridge letters mainly relate to publishing and contemporary political developments in Britain, Ireland and elsewhere.

Letter from Fr. Thomas Dawson OMI

A letter from Fr. Thomas Dawson OMI (1850-1939), Oblate House of Retreat, Inchicore, Dublin, to Fr. Henry Rope. Dawson includes a description of the events of Bloody Sunday in Croke Park on 21 November 1920. He writes 'sixteen young students, from a different house, were among those who escaped when they saw the armed forces coming. As they clambered over the embankments, the bullets were hopping about them, but the only hit among our youngsters was when one of them had the top of one finger shot off'. He also refers to a raid on the Oblate house of studies (most likely Belmont House in Stillorgan) and to the rough treatment meted out by the soldiers.

Letter from Eoin MacNeill

A letter from Eoin MacNeill (1867-1945) to Fr. Henry Rope. MacNeill argues that Roger Casement was 'remarkably sane and well balanced' and affirms that he had 'no opportunity of consulting with him' as he was in America when war broke out. MacNeill also refers to his Irish history scholarship and to his work as chairman of the Irish Manuscripts Commission.

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 (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 (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)
