Portée et contenu
The subseries comprises a small collection of papers relating to Patrick Gallagher, better known by his sobriquet Patrick ‘the Cope’ Gallagher (‘cope’ being the popular Donegal version of ‘cooperative’). Gallagher was a cooperative organiser, businessman, and a campaigner for his native County Donegal. He is best remembered for founding the Templecrone Agricultural Co-operative Society in 1906, popularly known as ‘the Cope’, a co-operative association based in The Rosses area of West County Donegal. The file includes articles, clippings, and a letter from Gallagher to Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. (21 August 1947). Also includes a copy of ‘The Irish Homestead’ (11 Nov. 1916) which has content on Gallagher’s campaigning work in Donegal.
