Paul Callery giving a lecture today on the Irish Volunteers at a school in Finglas, Dublin, firstly to mature students and teachers, then to a leaving cert class of young men. I have to say that his collection on display is a credit to him, and his lecture a pleasure to listen to. I was glad to be a part of this today. Well done Paul.
