Documents concerning Archbishop McQuaid's objections to the formation of a Sandymount-Ballsbridge group of Muintir na Tíre

Therefore, I have not sanctioned the formation of any group in the Diocese. I should be grateful, if you could give me any help in understanding the Sandymount- Ballsbridge movement.’ (6 November 1941,1p). Includes correspondence between the Archbishop, Irish Fr Provincial and Fr Coyne on the matter.
