Irish Republican Army Part 2 of 7 61-7606 Sect 6-12
·
This file only
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.

For your information, the writer was assigned the case of the Irish
Republican Army, which is file 98-88, and which is presently not available.
When this was taken over by the writer, practically no information had been
developed regarding the identity or activities of this organization. I was
successful in contacting a member of the Irish Republican Army and was placed
which I had sent to my home on Long Island. This was with the full kmowledge
and consent of Speciai Agent in Charge Sackett. Copies of this newspaper,
together with the envelopes with which they were addressed to me, were imme-
were kept fully advised regarding my contacts with this group.
I recall that at one timo I was invited by the contact I made to
oa s so r a o a e
r. Sackett. He telephoned to the Bureau and they refused permission for me
to join this organization. Therefore I did not join.
This has boen ny only contact with the Irish Republican Army and since
work upon it.
