CSO/RP/1830/1400 File of documents arising from a letter from Lord Carbery [John Evans-Freke, 6th baron Carbery], Castle Freke, [Rosscarbery, County Cork], to Sir Francis Leveson Gower, [Chief Secretary], Dublin Castle, pointing to the mistake of uniting the diocesan schools of Cloyne and Ross in 1824 creating one school in Cork city and arguing for dissolving the union, stating that arrangements have been made to reopen the school in Rosscarbery. Also includes correspondence between Dublin castle staff, Richard W Greene, [legal advisor, Dublin], Henry Greville, [Irish Office, London], forwarding certain papers regarding Carbery’s letter, and extracts from the act on the appointment of commissioners for the regulation of the several endowed schools of public and private foundation in Ireland’. Further, includes copy reply to Lord Carbery, stating that his wishes for the schools cannot be effected without an act of Parliament because the Commissioners for the regulation of endowed schools can unite schools but not dissolve unions.
