 10th June 1916. 9542. Sir, Referring to your letter of the 3rd instant (Contracts.Firms.K/1739: A.G.3.) enquiring whether there is any objection to Masonic Swords being supplied by Messrs George Kenning & Son of 1, 2, & 3 Little Britain Street, London, E.C., to various parts of Ireland, I am directed by the Lords Justices to acquaint you, for the information of the Secretary of State, that the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief the Forces in Ireland, to whom the matter was re- ferred, states that he has no objection to the importation of a few swords fit for ceremonial purposes only but that the permission of the Military Authorities must first be obtained. Messrs Kenning & Son should therefore apply to the Head Quarters, Irish Command, Park Gate, Dublin, stating the number of swords and names of consignees, when enquiries will be made, and if the Military Authorities are satisfied as to the good character and loyalty of the consignees, Permits will be issued. I am, Sir, Your obedient Servant , E. O F. The Secretary, War Office, London, S.W.
