Description

Holograph letter from Sr. Mary deSales O.P., Dominican College, Eccles Street, Dublin, to her cousin (Hagan) (in Wicklow). Sr. Mary Celsus is looking out keenly for a visit from him; hoping he gets a good rest, staying with Lizzie and Dan. Other brief news. Commenting that the writer of the enclosed letter is 'a great soul' and supporter of Ireland, having written about Ireland, and about St. Columba: enclosing holograph letter from A.B. Ochilvee Ferguson, The Sycamores, Grove Park, Glasgow, to [Sr.de Sales], in thanks for a magazine and expressing indignation that the Scotch papers do not cover Irish events much. Wondering whether the current time of stagnation means that 'materialism [is] stifling the spirituality of the celt? How high our hopes were in 1921, (and) now -!' – Sr.de Sales asks Hagan to destroy enclosure on reading.
