Hi,
I was wondering if any members of the Forum could please look up and copy an article from the 3 Oct 1974 edition of the Clare Champion for me. The article includes a photo of people watching Bishop Harty blessing the RHO House at Kilkishen. The people watching include my late grandmother, Mary Cahill. I would not trouble anyone with this request, except that I live in Sydney and have not been successful in obtaining a copy via the newspaper's office.
The photograph would make a useful additon to the Library's collection as it shows a number of other local residents. They and/or their descendents may be intested in seeing it and be able to identify those featured.
All I can offer in return for any assistance is that I work near the Mitchell Library and can investigate any New South Wales-related queries there (especially those relating to convicts).
Thanks and regards, Justin Cahill.

Hi Justin,
I'm attaching two photos of the Kilkishen RHO blessing from the Champion. The quality is not great as the pages are yellowing and the photos quite grainy.

Sadhbh

Hi Sadhbh,
That's amazing - many thanks for that. It looks like there was quite a turn-out and so many other people will find themselves or relatives in this photograph.
All the best for Christmas and the New Year. Kind regards, Justin.
