Letter from Rev. Thomas Gavan Duffy to Scoil Bridghde, 29 February 1920

UCD Archives holds a number of small collections. One of these is Records of Scoil Bridghde. It consists of a photocopy of a scrapbook containing lists of pupils, photographs, programmes for school plays, newspaper cuttings, and letters. The scrapbook was found among LA22 Papers of R. Dudley Edwards.

Scoil Bridghde (Scoil Bhríde) was an Irish speaking school for girls, founded by Louise Gavan Duffy and Annie McHugh in 1917.  The school was originally located in St Stephen's Green, Dublin and moved to Pembroke Road in 1921. It is now in Ranelagh, Dublin 6.

Included in the scrapbook are two letters from Rev. Thomas Gavan Duffy (1888 - 1942) thanking the school for their contributions to his missionary school in India (29 February 1920, and 6 October 1924)
