Michael Davitt (1894) (1 item)

61 28 November 1894 Letter from Michael Davitt, Ballybrack (County Dublin), to ‘My dear Mr. Lane’, Denny Lane, Cork. Davitt is deeply grateful for Lane’s kindness ‘in the matter of the vacant post in the Queen’s College’. He does not know young McEldery personally but was asked by his friend Rev. Richard Little of County Down ‘who is a staunch Nationalist- though a Unitarian Minister…to try and interest my friends on behalf of an Ulster Protestant applicant…’. Concludes with a ‘fervent hope that you may continue to climb our biggest mountains (without, however scattering boulders around) until you come up to the opening of an Irish Parliament…’. 4pp
