Letter in defence and wonder of the Spanish and Irish martyrs for The Faith.

I wanted to draw your attention to this wonderful letter by Father Angles of the SSPX. It deals with the Spanish Civil war and the beatification of the Spanish martyrs and also remind us of our own glorious history of Irish martyrs.

There is reference to two monasteries which were burned to the ground in the North of Ireland, all but two of the inhabitants seemingly murdered. Apparently nothing more of these atrocities is ever recorded. Today it may be that we never know the full extnt of the suffering of Catholic Ireland during those days of persecution, especially since all mention of the penal times and the attempt to enforce the Reformation on Ireland has been airbrushed from our history by those against Catholics.

Enjoy the read!
