    "DEMONSTRATIVE IRISH GUARDS. REPRIMAND IN BARRACKS. The Irish Guards, a number of whom loudly cheered Messrs. Redmond and Dillon on Wednesday as they were returning from the palace conference, were yesterday paraded in Wellington Barracks. Lieutenant-Colonel G. H. Morris, addressing the men, said he was sorry that soldiers in uniform should have given way to a political demonstration. NOTIFICATION TO SOLDIERS. The War Office has issued an order prohibiting soldiers from associating with the Ulster and National Volunteers.

    According to the Wikipedia article on the Government of Ireland Act 1914: To save prolonged debate in parliament, George V called the Buckingham Palace Conference with two MPs each from the Liberal, Conservative, IPP and Irish Unionist parties. The conference, held between 21 and 24 July 1914, achieved very little.

    “The Irish Volunteers was a paramilitary organisation formed in November 1913. It was set up in response to an article by Eoin MacNeill in the nationalist newspaper, An Claidheamh Soluis. The article called on nationalists to arm themselves in order to achieve Home Rule.

    With the advent of the First World War, there was a split in the Irish Volunteers. This was because the leader of the Nationalist Party, John Redmond, called on all Irish Volunteers to support the British war effort. Those who agreed with Redmond became the National Volunteers. Those who did not want to support the British in the war remained the Irish Volunteers, many of whom eventually took part in the 1916 Rising”

    "the first item on the agenda of any Irish organisation is the split"
