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’.
