Madam, – I am researching the life of John Roche (1848-1914) who represented Galway East as a Nationalist MP in the House of Commons from 1890 until his death in 1914. He was a leading member of the Plan of Campaign in 1886 and a close colleague of John Dillon.
I am looking for any letters or other material written by him (or possibly written to him and copied by the sender) that may be in the possession of your readers. Any material forwarded to the undersigned will be gratefully acknowledged, copied and returned with thanks. – Yours, etc,
