Sullivan and Edward Compton have entries in the Oxford DNB, and Compton's wife Viriginia is noticed in the entry for her father Hezekiah Linthicum Bateman. The fourth signatory of this item Lewis Ball appears to have also had theatrical connections. From the collection of nationalist autographs of Miss Burgess of Norwich. From t…he autograph collection of Miss Burgess of Norwich. 1p, 12mo. On leaf of pink gilt-edged paper torn from autograph album, the lead content of which has resulted in some discolouration: lightly worn and aged, with dink to one corner. Sullivan's autograph stands alone on one side: 'We are sons of Sister Isles / Englishmen and Irishmen, / On our friendship heaven smiles, / Tyrant tricks and tory wiles / Ne'er shall make us foes again. / T. D. Sullivan / July 15th. '93.' Sullivan's signature is striking, with the cross stroke on the initial letter T rising over the signature like the outline of a mountain. The reverse of the leaf carries three signatures. First: 'Very sincerely yours / Virginia Bateman Compton / Jan 5th. 1893' Second: ' "People who never enter a Theatre are always the first to condemn it!" ("Davy Garrick") / Edward Compton / Norwich / Jan 5/93.' Third: 'Lewis Ball / "I leave my Character behind me" / (School for Scandal / Janry. 6th./93'. See Image (T.D. Sullivan).

Although large numbers of Irishmen had willingly signed up to fight for the British cause in the First World War, by April 1918 a shortage of troops moved the British government to propose conscription in Ireland. This was violently opposed by republicans, and O'Neill convened an Irish Anti-Conscription Committee which met at th…e Mansion House in Dublin. Strikes and protests followed, and although a law was passed, conscription was never implemented in Ireland. These two items are now extremely scarce. The NLI does appear to possess copies of the first of the two; whether it has a copy of the second is unclear; and although other editions are listed on JISC and WorldCat (one edited by Crawford Hartnell, and the other, published by the IACC, titled 'No Conscription! Ireland's Case re-stated'), they do not appear to list copies of the present, whose association with a Dublin newspaper (although the two are printed on watermarked wove paper) suggest that they probably pre-date the other editions. The owner of the work, J. N. MacPhail, was a Scottish antiquary. The two items are nicely housed in a modern purpose-made hard card folder of dark-green cloth, with white paper label on front cover with printed title. Both documents with all leaves carrying the watermark of the 'IRISH / INDEPENDENT / DUBLIN'. ONE. Title: 'TO THE PRESIDENT / OF THE / UNITED STATES / OF / AMERICA'. 12pp, 8vo. Stapled. Ownership signature at top left of cover: 'J R N Macphail'. Ends (p.12): 'Given at the Mansion House, Dublin, this 11th day of June, 1918. / LAURENCE O'NEILL, / LORD MAYOR OF DUBLIN, / Chairman of a Conference / of representative Irishmen whose names stand hereunder:- / [col.a] JOSEPH DEVLIN, / JOHN DILLON, [col.b] MICHAEL EGAN, / THOMAS JOHNSON, / WILLIAM O'BRIEN, [LABOUR.] / [col.c] T. M. HEALY, / WILLIAM O'BRIEN, [col.d] THOMAS KELLY, / JOHN MACNEILL, / Acting in the place of / E. DE VALERA / and / A. GRIFFITHS, / deported 18th May, 1918, to separate prisons in England, without trial or accusation communication with whom has been cut of.' On worn and discoloured paper, with grubby cover. Previously folded into packet, with central vertical and horizontal folds. Begins: 'SIR, / When a century and a half ago, the American Colonies dared to assert the ancient principle that the subject should not be taxed without the consent of his representatives, England strove to crush them. To-day England threatens to crush the people of Ireland if they do not accept a tax, not in money but in blood, against the protest of their representatives.' The complaint centres on the fact that, 'In the fourth year of a war ostensibly begun for the defence of small nations, a law conscribing the manhood of Ireland has been passed, in defiance of the wishes of our people', after 'the Irish Parliament has been destroyed'. TWO. Headed: '[COPY.] / Mansion House, / Dublin, / 18th June, 1918. / TO HIS EXCELLENCY / THE AMERICAN AMBASSADOR.' Ends: 'I have the honour, Your Excellency, to subscribe myself, with profound respect, / Your obedient Servant, / L. O'NEILL, / LORD MAYOR OF DUBLIN.' 1p, 8vo. As with Item One, ownership signature at top left of cover: 'J R N Macphail'. Begins: 'SIR, / I was deputed, by a representative Conference of Irishmen assembled in Dublin, to proceed to Washington to place in the hands of the President of the United States an Address by them agreed to. The office which I hold made me seem a not unfitting messenger for that purpose.' Later he states that it has 'seemed good to the British Foreign Office to refuse to allow me to be the bearer of the Address unless its terms were first submitted to the Right Hon. Lord French of Ypres, Field Marshal, Lord Lieutenant and Governor-General of Ireland.' Ends: 'It is not proposed to make any publication of the Address here, before the 4th of July, by which date it is hoped it will have reached Washington.'.

See his entry in the Dictionary of Irish Biography, and his father's entry in the Oxford DNB. 4pp, 12mo. Bifolium. 72 lines, closely written. In good condition, lightly aged and folded for postage. Addressed to 'My dear Sir Henry' and signed 'Joseph D'Arcy Sirr'. In response to an invitation to write, there are 'two or three poi…nts' on which Sirr would seek information. These relate to what appears to be a mistake by 'Mr Davy' on publishing a manuscript regarding 'Lady C. Grey' who is buried at Yoxford. He is also 'enclosing [not present] a curious copy of a MS made for me, but wh. needs to be compared, signed Wm. Barlow'. Sirr suspects he may have been a previous incumbent, but asks the recipient if he is able to identify him. There are references to 'Mr Petre', 'Lauwrence Echard Vicar of this Parish from 1625 to 1646', Becles, 'Sir Robt. Brooke', 'Sir Humphrey Weld Ld May[o]r of London'.

Sullivan, Webb and Mangan all have entries in the Oxford DNB. The present item is referred to in a letter of 18 January 1890 (offered separately), where Webb explains that he is sending it to 'Miss Burgess' (of Norwich), with three other Irish nationalist autographs, describing it as 'unsigned but vouched by me'). 1p, 4to. In fa…ir condition, lightly aged. Folded four times. Sullivan's text, covering almost the whole of the page and written with the skill of an editor, is an autograph draft, with corrections, of a newspaper appeal for subscriptions, headed 'Memorial to the Poet James Clarence Mangan.' Twenty-four lines. Webb vouches at the foot of the page: '[The Lord Mayor T. D. Sullivan MP October 1887] / Alfred Webb'. On the reverse of the leaf, in Miss Burgess's distinctive hand: 'Written by the Lord Mayor of Dublin J. D. Sullivan Oct/87'. Begins: 'Amongst some of the admirers of the genius of one of the sweetest singers of the Irish Race - the gifted James Clarence Mangan - the idea has been started of honouring his memory by affixing to the front of the house in which he was born a Memorial Tablet with a suitable inscription recording the dates of his birth and death, and bearing, if it be found feasible to produce it, a medallion likeness of the poet.' Among the three emendations is the alteration of the 'natives' of Dublin to 'inhabitants'. See partial image.
