Handwritten note to Ambassador Guest expressing +McQuaid’s deep regret on the tragic death of Senator Robert Kennedy.

Note to +McQuaid stating that the mass to be held that evening in Adam & Eve’s church for the recovery of Senator Kennedy is now to be a requiem mass. He has been invited by the John F. Kennedy Association in Dublin to celebrate this mass. He does not know if the Government will request a public mass and the Nuncio does not wish to ‘inject’ himself on any such proposal nor does he think that it would clash with the current arrangement.

Typed letter to + McQuaid from James Ardle MacMahon. Fr. Liam Carey phoned to say he received an invitation to a meeting to protest against the bombing of North Vietnam. The speakers were John Horgan, Sean MacReamoinn, Fr. Michael O’Neill, Jack Dowling, Donal Nevin and Peadar O’Donnell. He advised Fr. Carey to ignore the invitation. Fr. O’Neill, like U Thant, Bishop Fulton Sheen and Bobby Kennedy, felt it should be stopped. Did not know that Nevin and O’Donnell were speakers. Fr. MacMahon emphasised two points. The issue of bombing North Vietnam was a propaganda issue the moral issue was by no way simple.
