HC Deb 29 May 1916 vol 82 c2387
36. Mr. GINNELL

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether the message to the Irish people, written by P. H. Pearse between sentence and execution, has yet been handed over to any person on his behalf; if so, to whom; and, if not, who holds it and when will it be given to those entitled to it?

Mr. TENNANT

No message to the Irish people was received from P. H. Pearse. The letters and other documents addressed to his mother have been delivered.
