Summary: | There is a mention of "Proinsias O'Ryan" being aquitted by a "Free State court", possibly referring to Frank Ryan. Given how Frank Ryan was editor of 'An Phoblacht' which was surpressed in Ireland in 1931, and Jack Sheehan's complaints about the absence of the newspaper, that might date the letter to that year. Jack Sheehan discusses personal details such as his mother's death and his brother's impending visit. |
