Thomas D. Norris Esq. 79 Pearl St, New York.
Sir, —
I have just received two copies of An Gaodhal
for which I am deeply grateful. My boys like
them very much, having previously read some co¬
pies which the Revd. Mr. Cleaver of North Wales
sent me.
I have an Irish class in my school during a year
and a half and at the last examination in June
last, the 19 I presented in Irish all passed credita¬
bly. May some good angel send us more Norrises,
Cleavers, Hydes and Flemings, and with an in¬
crease in their numbers and other such friends
must surely come, additional and increased respect
for the grand old tongue.
I See the Gaelic friends in America are as de¬
lighted as we are here at home at the ap¬
pointment of Father O’Growney to the Celtic
Chair in Maynooth College.
This incident is certainly a happy augury for
the future prospects of the vernacular. - - - It is
not in one way alone that we are indebted to the
Great Republic of the West and not in the least
for the interest displayed in the revivification of
the ancient Gaelic. - - -
Thanking you again. I am Sir.
Yours respectfully,
James O’Sullivan.
