Scope and content
Letter from D. O’Callaghan, prisoner no. q 128, Lewes Prison, to Fr. Albert Bibby OFM Cap., concerning his conditions of imprisonment. He also expresses his joy on hearing that the ‘Gaelic League is doing splendidly and was never stronger’. He later claims that ‘my people are immigrated all over the world not through any fault of their own and not necessary for me to tell you the cause’. He has yet to receive a letter mailed to him from his brother in America.
