The History Sale 19th April 2016
Breen (Dan) A.L.S., 2pp. on Dail Eireann notepaper, 11.9.43, to his friend and Republican Colleague Jim Babington, discussing the
progress of the World War after Italy’s attempt to change sides. ‘The Popes and Italians have failed in their treachery Rommel will
beat Hell out of the damn lot. The leakage is now stopped and I hope no stone will be left stand there. I know you will not like me
to be anti-Pope but I want to be quite candid, no orange men can be more bitter against him... . If anything happens to me, you
will know why. The gov. is very weak...’ w.a.f.
A typically forthright effort.
