A view of biplanes (and a autogyro) over Longford Town in about 1935. The larger plane is apparently an Airspeed Ferry, a ten-seat passenger biplane built in the early 1930s. The photograph is related to an aviation display organised by Alan Cobham (1894-1973). Cobham organised displays of various aircraft, ranging from single-seaters to modern airliners, with many skilled pilots. He toured both Britain and Ireland, calling at hundreds of sites, some of them regular airfields and some just fields cleared for the occasion. Generally known as ‘Cobham's Flying Circus’, it was hugely popular, giving thousands of people their first experience of flying. These displays continued until about 1935.
Your Grace my dear Archbishop

this is completed I shall go to the Novitiate
where I hope to live a more regular life
until Mid- April
Mr. Jones revised plans and price of the
renovations seemingly have Rev. Mothers

few items I should like to discuss with
him when he has a few free moments
I wrote to day telling of my plans
I have kept dear St. Joseph bothered but
Since these interests are related to the advance-
ment of his Son's kingdom he will not be
annoyed. In his loving kindness I trust he
is very generous in his givings to you my dear
Archbishops
