Letter from Timothy Quinlisk (1895-1920) to Sir Roger Casement (1865-1916). Quinlisk was a member of the Irish Brigade, a brigade established by Casement from Irish prisoners in German prisoner of war camps. Quinlisk refers to events events at Zossen, Germany, from the 18 of November, and refers to men found drunk and punished for the offence. He had previously been put on trial with Dowling and others for an offence related to money. Despite being officers in the Irish Brigade, the men were tried as prisoners of war and this prompted angry exchanges between Casement and the Germans. Quinlisk complains that since he returned to the camp he has had his pass removed even though his only crime was the one he had previously been punished for. He also expresses his desire to go to Egypt.This letter is taken from a collection of letters, poems, articles and other documents of Roger Casement and his family covering his career in the British Diplomatic Service as well as his activities in the Irish Revolutionary movement, 1889-1945. Quinlisk was executed by the Cork IRA in 1920. He had sent a letter to the British under-secretary offering information about Michael Collins and the IRA in return for a £10,000 reward and the letter was intercepted.
