Scope and content
A proof copy of a petition (with signatures) to present Ireland’s claims before an ‘impartial non-British Tribunal’ of nations. The accompanying letter stresses the need to present such claims immediately as ‘if such reference were postponed to a date after the end of the war it would be too late to avert the dangers that are now imminent’. With a copy of names of individuals (with professions and addresses) endorsing such a presentment to an international tribunal.
