Description

Holograph letter from Donal A. Reidy, The Palace, Killarney (County Kerry), to Hagan. They are sending two students; Curran and Brosnahan. The former is from the Gaeltacht and has no Oxford English, his early schooling did in no way match his abilities. Adding in a postscript that Canon Breen was "promoted" to a parish owing to failure to repair the harm he did in the seminary; their rector is now Fr. Denis Brosnan. Then speaking in favour of past Roman pupil 'Mago' O'Donnell, now teaching at an Irish (Gaelic) Training College; hoping his perceived oddities will not come against him; believing that in Rome he suffered from slander by Canon Breen.
