Scope and Content: Eugene writes that he is still living in Inchiquin with "all differences smoothed down and forgotten." It appears that he recently visited Dunmanway, as he writes that the MacCarthy memorial in Dunmanway Church "will testify to the end of time the position the MacCarthys occupied in that manor". He also notes that he was delighted to hear Canon Casey mention that Daniel had joined a list of subscribers for Father Hurley's monument. He tells Daniel that Eleanor [MacCarthy] is well, Angel Donoghue is alive at 90 but will not last much longer, and that Mrs Owen MacCarthy wishes to express her great gratitude to Daniel.
