Routine letters to clients, generally 1 per page. Badly faded and illegible in parts.
Includes letter to Fr. J. Bergin, Philipstown: 'As you are aware a Notice of every Charitable Request has to be published in some newspaper circulating in the District in which the Charity is to be applied - published in 3 successive issues of such newspaper. I had the Notice in this case published in An Claidheamh Soluis, the organ of the Gaelic League which you may have seen. I enclose a copy for reference. The copies of the paper containing the Notice have to be lodged with the Commissioners of Charitable Donations who invariably require some evidence that the paper containing the Notice has some circulation in the District. I know of my own knowledge that the paper does circulate more or less in the District. However, all the evidence the Commissioners require, as you will see from enclosed letter, its a letter from you as parish priest of Philipstown and Clonfert stating that you have seen this notice published. I shall be much obliged if you would kindly write us such a letter.' (7 February 1912)

Original incoming and copy outgoing letters relating to management of the Charleville estate. Matters referred to include: lodgement of Power of Attorney granted to Ernest Browne by Charles Bury for dealings with the Charleville Estate and Land Commission; Charles Bury consideration to appeal a decision by inland revenue to the House of Lords and ultimate decision to not appeal; information on the Mechanical Transport Section of the ASC [Army Service Corps] under the War Office; income tax deducted by Messrs Stapleton for the Tore and Belvedere Estate; sale of the Three Blacks, Athlone; attempt to resist a tenant's application to redeem the rent of La Mancha, Mullingar and contentions that this holding should not be affected by the Land Act.

Includes letter from Captain Charles Bury to E White "Browne will have written to you I expect about the Appeal. My opinion is that under existing circumstances we ought not to carry it on to the House of Lords and I know that Lord Lansdowne agrees with me. If it had not been for the war and the growing scarcity of money, I should have liked very much to go on with it and I daresay we might proved successful, but at present the risk is too great. My present chauffeur is very anxious to join the Irish Motor Transport. Can he do this and what steps must he take? He is a good driver and mechanic and comes from Geashill; his name is Donaldson.
