Abstract
In February 1900, Father John P. Connelly, the Roman Catholic parish priest of Achill Island, County Mayo, wrote to the Queen Victoria’s Jubilee Institute for Nurses (QNI) in Dublin, pleading for funds to retain the island’s Jubilee nurse. Emotively, he claimed that the year before she arrived, there had been 24 maternal deaths and “scarcely any since she came here.”
