Description:
In this issue we continue the publication of the calendar of the papers of Dr John Hamilton (1800-62), dean and later archdeacon, and secretary to Archbishop Murray of Dublin. The papers calendared here are contained in the files numbered 35/3, 4 and 5 in the Dublin Diocesan Archives, and cover the years 1831-5. During this period many of the letters received by Dr Hamilton bear upon his secretaryship to Dr Murray and his administratorship of the Pro- Cathedral. His correspondents include friends, clerical and lay, and family members, as well as importunate parishioners.
