![Sincerely wishing that full success under these circumstances may attend your efforts, I am, Yours very truly, Thomas Addis Emmet. John E. Redmond, Esq. Hoffman House. Note VIII See page 342 [New York Central Council of the United Irish League, 47 West 42d Street.] New York, Jan. 13, 1901. Dear Doctor Emmet : We held a meeting on Friday night last which was attended by Messrs. Patrick Gallagher, Peter McDonnell, John McKee, John J. Rooney, John P. Brophy, Edwd. Murphy, Burke, P. A. Moynahan, etc., etc. It was decided to send a statement of our position up to the present time to the United Irish League in Ireland. I fear it will do little good now but the majority were in favor of putting ourselves clearly on record with the League. We are preparing a statement, and would like very much, if the matter meet your approval, to send a copy of your letter to Mr. Redmond with, of course, his telegraphic reply in order to be fair. We will show how unfounded his assumption that everything was regularly done. Kindly let us have a copy. The whole matter will be entirely for the League because no patriotic man now desires a public wrangle. Messrs. Wm. Redmond and Jos. Devlin are coming to complete the work of the other delegation, which in itself shows that everything was not done that might have been performed. Yours very respectfully, Michael Fox. Note IX See page 342 [New York Central Council of the United Irish League, 47 West 42d Street.] New York, Jan. 29, 1902. Dear Doctor Emmet: I herewith return the entire correspondence you so kindly sent me. I have read it all over carefully and believe you put our side of the question very strongly and very fairly. I had it long enough to copy the whole business but did not do so lest any part of it might be used out of place. I know we can trouble you again if it be required. Your letter and talk with Mr. McDonnell settled for good all ideas of sending over a statement to the League in Ireland. I had it prepared but I told the meeting that I would cut off my right hand before I would sign it. That while entirely true I could see no difference](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b28034776_0582.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
