Description

Holograph letter from (Brian) P. Bolton, Archbishop's House, 'Dara', Brisbane (Australia), to Hagan. Introducing the bearer, Mr. Cleary, asking to give him access to some of the Easter ceremonies and a papal audience. Praising his time in the Irish College; comparing his Australian patriotism, to Hagan's; finding that among the 'mixed breeds ... those of the Irish and German blood are the best'. When the Japanese make a bid for a part of Australia 'we will have our story to tell'. Eric Fair writes to him sometimes. Adding that the other Romans Jack English and Con Roberts are also doing the College proud.
