               <p>A letter from Major C. Harold Heathcote to James Ryan (1891-1970). Heathcote was the officer in charge of prisoners' effects and Ryan had requested the return of property taken from him when he was arrested after the Rising. Heathcote invited Ryan to visit Richmond Barracks, where prisoners were initially held after the Rising, to discuss the matter.James Ryan studied medicine in UCD. He was appointed chief medical officer in the GPO during the Easter Rising. After the Rising he was imprisoned in Stafford and, later, Frongoch and was released in August 1916. Ryan was later a founder member of Fianna Fáil and a government minister.</p>
