All files
61-7606 is the FBI’s old main file on the Irish Republican Army. 61 is the classification (treason / internal security in that era). 7606 is the case number. When the paper got too thick they bound it into sections. Joshua Smith’s 2015 release is seven PDFs covering sections 1–32, from 1939 into the early 1990s. A serial is one document inside a section (a letter, teletype, or clipping). The file list follows those PDFs, not the serial numbers.
The 2015 drop includes a second PDF with an embedded text layer for some parts (_text). Same pages as the scan; that copy is omitted from the file list. Word-level OCR differs and search may still hit both.

treason to 4merica.
They have no need to bow low for the
part they have taken in making this nation the Ereatest on
earth, nor have they any need to feel ashamed of the part
and institutions.
Lr. Brennen struck the proper note in his statement about
the present situation in Ireland when he said that so long
as the evil of partition continues in Ireland such incidents
as were reported in the nevspapers last vcek about outbursts
of emotion when Americar soldiers vere seen on the strects of
Belfast, are inevitablo.'

Then tho carpet-baggors invadcd the Southern Statcs and

the natural outcomo of thc imposition of'conditions in tho
