1 'Seafield' Bundoran. 2nd August 1916 Dear Jim Cead Mile Failte back
to Ireland! Believe me
I was delighted to see
by Doc's letter this morning
that you are coming home!
How glad your mother &
father and all the rest
will be to have you back!
Have Des Ryan & Dore &
all the other college folk
who were along with
you, been equally lucky?
Is there any chance of Liam 2
O'Brien being released
soon? I wish you'd send
me his address, I want to
write to him but don't know
for certain where he is. How did Phyllis get on at
her exam? I did not
see the results and forgot
to ask Doc about it, but
I hope and believe that
she was successful. Doc & Eily McGrane paid
me a flying visit as soon
as they had finished
a pilgrimage to Lough
Derg. We motored to Sligo
one day, while they were
here and besieged Godfrey,
he is just as fat & jolly as
ever! 3 Now I must say
good evening
with love to Phyllis Miss
Ryan Agnes & yourself
& kindest regards to
Father Regan. I remain
Your sincere friend Mairín Ni Ribhógh
