Payton for the wilful murder of Cumann Liteardha na Gaedhilge, 23 March 1914 [play in English], 22pp. (1)A unique collection, mostly by Liam O'Flaherty's elder brother Tomás, who went to Boston as a young man. The comparison with Liam's work is interesting, in view of the similar subject matter of some of the stories. English versions of some of these stories (Bó i Sgailp, The White Horse) are included in Tom O'Flaherty's collection Cliffmen of the West [London 1935]. To the best of our knowledge, apart from Caitlín's poem, most of these works are unpublished in their original versions. Caitlín ní Fhlaitheartaigh is presumably a sister of Tomás and Liam. It is said that Tomás was the first person to urge Liam to write (see Hogan, Dict. of Irish Literature). As a m/ss, w.a.f.
