Sean came up this morning and askedme if I had seen the paper which i hadn't,and when he told me I got quite foolish. Icouldn't understand what he was sayingfor a while. Oh May. it's terrible but Chadied as he lived to God and Ireland trueand he must have gone straight to Heaven.May God strengthen ye to bear your trouble,and give your poor Mother comfort. When I received your letter Iwas very hopefull from what you told me,and the negociations that the executionswere at an end and sure twas way toosoon I realized how mistaken I was. Allthe people in Cork that know Cha, and arehorrified. Don't greive too much May, althoughI know how you worshipped him, sure we'llall meet again, and he wouldn't changeplaces with us now hes far too f happy. Sean and I are getting a mass offered up for him though Godknows he doesn't need any he was toogood, May.
