Bound volume containing copies of letters written by Mr S.J. Barrett

Bound volume containing copies of letters written by Mr. S.J. Barrett, Meelick House, Kilmore, County Roscommon to various correspondents, primarily to the Secretaries of the Gaelic Union and the Society for the Preservation of the Irish Language. In a letter to R.J. O Mulrenin, Honorary Secretary of the Gaelic Union, with reference to the two societies, he states "Now is strikes me that if the two societies were united it would be better for the cause which you have so much to heart" (10 June 1885). He also gets involved with various disputes with newspapers, complaining to the Editor of the "Shamrock" that in his article on Mr. J.J. McSweeney no mention was made of the work of the Gaelic Union (4 Apr 1889). In a letter published in the "Leitrim Observer" he lauds the cause of the Irish language: "I trust it will never be said of us that we yielded to the Welsh, who have brought their language from the former state of obscurity to a position which it now occupies" (2 Aug 1890) [Formerly LSB59].
