Description

Holograph letter from Patrick Murphy, House of Missions, Enniscorthy (County Wexford), to Hagan, advising him that two brothers, both Fr. [Drea] are going to be in Rome in the autumn; praising the first Fr. Drea as retreat master and stating that while he is of the right convictions he is overly careful. Some observations on the bad summer, and the bad prospects for the harvest. As to the boundary question, there might well be a general election before Christmas 'on the pretense that they are standing firm on the treaty clause and so try to dish the Republicans'. Regretting they have no student for Rome. Hagan must be busy getting the new house ready for the expected throng of pilgrims next year.
