Some days after the publication of Aiṫris ar Ċríost the following letter was received by Canon O'Leary from the Lord Bishop of Raphoe:—

Ard Adhamnain
Letterkenny, June 7th, 1914.

Dear Canon O'Leary,—Your "Aiṫris ar Ċríost" is about the best thing you have done; you have given us a book for reading that is welcome alike to the Irish mind and to the devout soul. Now we have an Irish Imitation with short clear words, easy flow, and a very great deal of the unction of the original.

During the Crann Eiṫne hour it will be a valuable help to us. The people like to drink in spirituality with their Irish.

The question of Northern or Southern Irish scarcely arises; or if it does, it can be got over, as you suggest, by following the local pronunciation. I hear nothing but praise for your books in St. Eunan's College. What an array of them you have to your credit! May you live to do more and more for God and for Eire, and for the Irish tongue. With many thanks,

I am, Dear Canon,

Faithfully yours,
