z.K.: email from yad Vashem: Dear Mr. Mitchell, The case of Mgr. O'Flaherty is well-known in our department, but unfortunately we are unable to do much about it in terms of submitting it for the consideration of the Commission for the Designation of the Righteous.

The problem is that although everyone "knows" that O'Flaherty saved "many Jewish lives", no one has yet to actually name a person who was rescued by him. So the question remains: who did Mgr. O'Flaherty rescue, and who can testify on his behalf? We have printed ads in the papers several times over the years, asking people to come forward and tell us what they know – but no one ever did. So the case remains open until we find evidence for his actions.

I have to say that the name of Delia Murphy is new to me - are you able to tell me what you know of her involvement?

Also please note that the Cork-born Mary Elmes has just been recognized as Righteous for her actions in the Rivesaltes camp in France. Stories keep reaching us, even so many years later, and I would not be surprised if other stories of Irish rescuers would turn up in the future.

Kind regards,

Weshalb er Scarlet Pimpernel genannt wurde,

erschließt sich nicht aus der BKseite. Kann man das nicht mit kurzen Worten im Text erläutern? --Ottomanisch 15:04, 5. Jun. 2011 (CEST)
