Photocopy of a letter from Joseph A. Cunningham, Solicitor, Templeshannon, Enniscorthy, county Wexford to Captain Maurice J. Fennell, Church Street, Rathkeale, county Limerick, regarding his article in the Irish Independent on 2 March 1976 and Cunningham’s own published memoirs, and notes ‘I am wondering is Sergeant Sheehy (Garryowen?) alive or Tom Neaney. Tom saved my life once (I have always felt) when he stopped a runaway mule in Ciempozeulos one afternoon with Paddy Casey (Donegal) and myself helpless in the dray. I can still see it careering furiously for the narrow archway leading from the town to the lines.’ In addition, notes holding an interview with General Franco in 1973. Also gives an update on the whereabouts of some of his former colleagues from the Irish Brigade. Concludes by stating ‘For me the fight in Spain was Christ – v – Anti-Christ and everything really Irish must be radically Christian. A Republic that would not be Christian would not be Irish’.
