Description
Holograph letter from Margrieta Beer, 65 College Court, Hammersmith, London W. (England), to Hagan; in reply to two letters from him. Regretting she could not help in arranging O'Riordan's books; she knew the room very well. The number of feminist books must have come after her time, though she once presented him with J.S. Mill's 'Subjection of Women' which he did not cherish much; the remark about women politicians she knew. Some remarks about the rector having had much respect for Hagan's opinions. Discussing O'Riordan's failure to write more; he described writing as 'an almost intolerable effort'. Welcoming offer of Catholic Bulletin issues with the parts of the Life of Oliver Plunkett. Comments on lack of likeness in the photograph, asking about two paintings. Some references to O'Riordan's niece and nephews, asking for news.
