"Your Name will not come into the Thing..."

Collins (Michael) ALS dated 19 Jan 1920 on paper of Irish Volunteers General Headquarters Dublin, to A Chara [also marked ‘To P. O D’], asking whether ‘there was any one in the office which you left whom I might get approached  .. I would of course get this done very carefully .. your name will not come in to the thing in any way .. A O’B does not know of the contents of this but you need have no hesitation in mentioning them to him if necessary’. With a full signature, Mícheál Ó Coileáin.
An important letter, quintessential Collins. (1)
