My dear Reverend Mother General,
I have heard from Reverend Mother
Mary de Pazzi of your kindnes in nominating Superiors for the
two Irish ventures.
This is verry encouraging news.
You need not be worried by the
delay in securing Edenmore. The lady vho owns it insisted on
having arbritration as she was not content with the price. It is a
mere technicality, but it means some delay. The original negotiat¬
ions are not alteted by arbritration.
I am grateful for your very kind
cooperation.
I remain, dear Reverend Mother
Yours sincerely in Christ,
+John C.McQuaid.
General,
Reverend Mother General,
Via Calandrelli 9, Roma.

Short note from Bishop John Harty, sent from the Royal Marine hotel, saying that he would be happy to confirm the boys in Glenstal, and confirming that Mother Mary Martin would not be allowed to establish her congregation in his diocese at Glenstal.

A flier titled ‘No man’s land’. Reprinted from the ‘Social Crediter’ (21 February 1942). The flier was printed by William Brown & Son Ltd., Chichester Street, Belfast. The flier attacks Irish neutrality and highlights what is termed Jewish influence in Irish political life. Refences are made to Robert Briscoe (1894-1969), described as a ‘Zionist Jew, of Lithuanian origin’, and his connections with Irish republicans, Fianna Fáil, and Éamon de Valera, ‘the son of an Irish mother and a “Spanish”, presumably Portuguese-Jewish father’. Mention is also made of the contemporary activities of the IRA described as the ‘latter day edition of the old Jewish-controlled affair of the same name’. The text is initialled ‘B.J.’. A manuscript annotation on the final pages seemingly suggests that this text may have appeared in the ‘Daily Express’.

A copy of a pamphlet titled ‘No conscription! Ireland's case re-stated / Address to the President of the United States of America from the Mansion House Conference’. (Dublin: Mansion House Conference, [1918]).
