This letters is from Private Foland of the Connaught Rangers, a prisoner of war in Bulgaria, to Lady Clonbrock, Augusta Caroline Dillon (née Crofton), (1839-1928), wife of Luke Gerald Dillon, 4th Baron Clonbrock, (1834-1917). Lady Clonbrock was one of a number of ladies who were members of the Irish Women's Association. Formed in London in the Spring of 1915, the IWA's purpose was to provide food and comforts for prisoners of War belonging to Irish Regiments. The writer is responding to a postcard he has received from Lady Clonbrock. He says that he hasn't received any clothing and, although he doesn't belong to her organisation, he felt that as he belonged to an Irish Regiment 'it was no harm' to ask.
