This letter is from Lance Corporal P. Lynch of the 5th 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 Womens 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 in which she requested his regimental details, which he supplies here. He says that he hasn't been receiving any parcels and this is his reason for writing to her.
