  • dispatch: a message, especially one sent by a general during a battle or military campaign
  • The Dispatches of the Duke of Wellington During His Various Campaigns, 1834-9
  • the jinnies' hasting dispatch: the forged letter which the Jinnies (Issy) send the Willingdone (HCE), purporting to come from Nap (Napoleon – Shem, Shaun & Shem-Shaun). The jinnies may also be identified with Elizabeth Gunning, the Irish beauty and socialite who also forged letters (in a failed attempt to trap the Duke of Marlborough), and with Elizabeth's aunts the sisters Elizabeth and Maria Gunning (Elizabeth Hamilton and Maria Coventry) → the dispatch may be identified with ALP's letter, and indeed with all forms of writing (including FW itself) which Joyce designated in his notes and manuscripts with the siglum File:Book.PNG
