Correspondence with Douglas Hyde relating to Connradh na Gaeilge matters, as well as personal correspondence on occasion. Born in 1860, and from the 1870s had an interest in the Irish language, folklore and antiquarianism. A student at TCD, he later became president of Connradh na Gaeilge in 1893, until his resignation in 1915 as the organisation became more nationalist in outlook, concentrating on his academic career as Professor of Irish at UCD, later becoming the first President of Ireland in 1937. He died in 1949.
