DescriptionForwards some remarks on the manuscript that has come to his notice. Remembered that his Grace hoped these documents would throw light on subject of general interest connected to the times to which they refer.

Will be leaving for a relative to Ireland next week, his address will be St.Catherines Park, Leixlip.
