Letter from Ellen Russell, Tadworth Court, Tadworth, Surrey, England to her sister Rosa [Mulholland] concerning a book about her late husband Lord Russell of Killowen. Remarks how much she dislikes it '...it is only a hasty impressionist sketch roughly and crudely done. In some parts it is clever no doubt the parts where Mr Barry O'Brien is well to the front and indeed one troubles to think what Sir Charles Russell would have done without him. It was he who was the author of the Parnell speech, that is clear-conceited little owl!'

Letter from Lillian Russell (daughter of Charles Russell), Tadworth Court, Tadworth, Surrey, England to Rosa [Mullholland, her aunt] regarding Barry O'Brien's book on Charles Russell and describes her feelings towards it. Remarks that her mother is quite upset about the publication 'I think mother has worked herself to the state where she does not know if she wishes the book to be met with success or with failure.'

Letter from Sr Mary St John Russell, The Old Palace, Mayfield, Sussex to her aunt, Rosa Mulholland, thanking her for a book. Remarks that she will be making her perpetual vows after a retreat.
