1 15-9-16 A Sheamuis Dhilis Thanks for your last very
interesting epistle. I am wondering if you
succeeded in your design of getting up to Dublin
and back. I hope you got up in time to see our
vivacious friend before her departure anyhow.
Give her my kindest regards when you are writing
again. Kit, Min and Fr. M have been here since last
I wrote to you and I need not tell you how happy we were
to see them. It was a great relief to see Min again.
I was very anxious about her for the last few weeks.
Martin and Min looked in the pink but Kit I thought
looked a bit tired and worn. Art O'Brien was
with me yesterday and I am in hopes of seeing Miss L.
G.Duffy tomorrow when she comes to visit Ginger. I wrote to Liam yesterday. The letter was
wholly in Irish. I sent it as a test. I hope he gets it
safely. I had a long letter from 'the Widow' today — just
as usual. Remember me to Phyllis. I hope to write to
her soon. I know she is up to her eyes in work and can't
write. This place resembles a
monastery too much for good stories to flourish inside
its precincts. You'd be put in the clink I believe if
you only whispered the word 'Monkey'.
Give my regards to any of the boys you come across. Do Bhuan Chara S.T.
