Letter from Patrick McCartan to William J. Maloney, regarding the Northern Irish elections, the Shannon Hydroelectric Scheme, McGarrity's reaction to McCartan running for the Seanad, and Irish literature,

1925 Apr. 9.

McCartan discusses how Joseph Devlin recieved 5,000 Protestant or Unionist votes in the Northern Irish election, which leads McCartan "to hope even for Belfast". McCartan responds to McGarrity accusation that "noting can justirfy your having anything to do with the Government regime" with "I had no blood stains of former comrades on my hands". He also discusses the Shannon Scheme, which he says the Government are afraid of "political jobbery following the large expenditure and hence inefficency".
