Letter from Thomas J. Culllen
Irish National Aid Association.
8 th July 1916
The letter is from Thomas J. Cullen, honorary secretary of the Irish National Aid
Association. The letter refers to the printing of postcards that would be sold to
raise funds. It also requests strong envelopes and copies of a photograph of Patrick
and William Pearse, executed after the Rising.The association was founded after the
Rising to provide relief to the dependents of those who were executed, killed in the
fighting or had lost their employment. It later merged with the Irish Volunteer Dependents'
Fund to form the Irish National Aid and Volunteer Dependents' Fund.
