Part of Papers of Fr Joseph Hurley

Correspondence relating to aspects of hosting An Tóstal exhibition in Tullamore.

Includes letter from James Ennnis, Country Registrar, Circuit Court Office, Tullamore, (and a member of the organising committee of An Tóstal) to Fr Hurley:

'Last evening Mrs Ennis was home to see her mother and she got from her a beautiful Land League flag in very good condition. The flag is of green with the slogan 'The Land for the People' on the back. On the front it had a picture of C.S. Parnell & of his home in Avondale. Super-imposed on Parnell's picture is a picture of Daniel O'Connell and presumably C. S. P. was 'effaced' after the Divorce. I have also learned that there is in Killeaveys of William St. a lovely picture of Dr Dunne...Both will be additions to our Museum.'
