Exercise book marked ‘B’ on the front cover, containing two sets of recollections by Liam Manahan. The first relates to tensions in counties Kerry and Cork at the time of the signing of the Anglo-Irish Treaty in December 1921 and the hostility in some quarters felt towards Michael Collins. The second contains an account of Manahan’s earliest memories, mainly focusing on his father. Also included is an account of organised agrarian resistance against landlords in North Cork and East Limerick and measures taken by Major Clifford Lloyd to suppress the Land League. The contents of this second set are similar to those in P104/1/7 but more detailed. The second set is paginated and is continued in P104/1/9.
