VIDEO: This letter explains Tom Barry's absence at 50th anniversary of Easter Rising

Another letter, also dating from 1966, from former government minister Fionan Lynch, recalls how Sean Hurley from Drinagh in West Cork died at his side during the fighting on the rebel side in 1916.
Hurley was the only Corkman to die for the rebels during the fighting in the GPO in the Rising and the correspondence is from the 1966 commemoration of his death in Drinagh.
