Letter from Charlotte Shaw (1857-1943) to Hanna Sheehy Skeffington (1877-1946) regarding Louise Bennett and financing an Irish delegate as a representative of Irish women at the International Committee for Permanent Peace. Shaw recalls providing Skeffington with financial assistance to send one or more Irishwomen to the Hague Congress. Seeing the delegates were prevented from going due to government interference Shaw queries whether any of that money remains. Before signing off Shaw requests more information about Louise Bennett and in a postscript informs Skeffington that 'The Citizen' is a constant source of satisfaction to her. Charlotte Shaw (née Payne-Townshend) was an Irish political activist and wife of playwright George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950). As a member of the Fabian Society Charlotte was a dedicated socialist and advocator of women's rights. Hanna Sheehy Skeffington (1877-1946), suffragette, nationalist, language teacher, was the founder of the Irish Women’s Franchise League and a founding member of the Irish Women Workers’ Union. She was the widow of Francis Sheehy-Skeffington who was summarily executed on 26 April 1916. She was active during the Rising, bringing food to the Volunteers in the G.P.O. and the College of Surgeons. Four days passed before she found out what had happened to her husband, Francis (1878-1916), and it wasn't until almost two weeks later that the full details of his execution emerged.
