Scope and content

Letter from Fr. Albert Bibby OFM Cap. to Fr. Bonaventure Murphy OFM Cap., referring to his arrival in Pennsylvania. He states that he ‘is trying to settle down – but my heart is ever pining to be back. However I’ll stick it until the decree of banishment is revoked. Those who sent me out here gave me the heaviest blow it was possible to give me’. He expresses his joy on hearing of the release of De Valera and Austin Stack. He also refers to Éamon de Valera’s address and concludes that he is a great man. He affirms ‘I never before thought so much of Dev as I do now’. He also refers to his hope that he will meet with Captain Robert Monteith in Detroit.
