23, Suffolk Street, DUBLIN. 28-3-24. Brother Shannon, Franciscan Hostel, Cork. A Chara, Sometime ago you wrote to me for permission to publish a second part of Sgeal Seandun. I communicated with D. O'Murchadha on the matter to learn from his answer that you had already published it without waiting for my consent. I do not think you should have done this especially as I had written to you that I had already taken the matter up with somebody else. I take it that you have had the MS copied or typed and I will be glad if you will send me the original and oblige. Mise, le meas, Maine Me Supbar
