To Mr. Timothy O'Leary,

Apple Store, Brooks Co., Maine:

CORK, CO. KERRY, July 13, 1892.

SIR-Edward Foley, of Clonmel, tells me that you could give me all the information I want about that part of the country you are now in. I have been farming about 100 acres for the last fifteen years, and have saved up £1000.

I want to know what sort of a county you are in; climate, soil, water, and all that, and what I could get for my F1000; also, if any inducements are held out to men of my class. I have a wife and nine children-7 boys and 2 girls. The boys, thanks be to God, are all able to take a hand at the farm work. Edward Foley will answer for me.
