Description
Typescript letter signed Seán T.(Ó Ceallaigh), Grand Hotel, Paris (France), to Hagan. Kelly reported from Rome about his warm welcome at the Vatican despite charges against him. Commenting on 'the long-awaited letter' which he does not find wholly satisfactory although it is useful and caused displeasure to the enemy. (Archbishop) Mannix had already departed when it was published; Bishop Cotter of Portsmouth accompanies him part of the way. Then observing that there is not much likelihood of an early peace- 'there seems no end to their desire to shoot and kill'. Regretting the burning of the Custom House which must have been a military necessity. Asking about Tedeschini's likely successor- suggesting it might be worth his while to contact the new French ambassador and use him as a lever against DeSalis. Also wondering about votes for the Dublin see.
