The collection also contains a ten-page pamphlet, "Ireland's Opportunity: Self-Help for Ireland," authored by Macgillycuddy and Arthur Warren, reprinted in the Boston Herald in 1891, a two-page pamphlet by Macgillycuddy on the subject of "co-operation of all the fisherman in Ireland," and two letters from Sir Morell, a physician who specializes in throat diseases.
