Madam, – Further to Peter Murtagh’s interesting Irishman’s Diary about Oliver St John Gogarty’s I Follow St Patrick (March 17th), it might be worth noting that a copy of Gogarty’s book was found on James Joyce’s desk just after his death. That copy is now in the possession of the Zurich James Joyce Foundation. So it is particularly appropriate that Mr Murtagh should find the book in the former Sweny’s Chemists of Ulysses. – Yours, etc,
