I was very grateful to be sent a copy of my great grandmother’s book, Tears of Laughter. Esther Morris (née Cristol) was born in Cork and published three short plays.

Lo and behold, he managed to find a copy of the book and sent it to me. Here are a few screenshots of the book, which I will treasure.
