    ARTILLERYMAN'S DYING CHILD. Thomas Henry Keeley, 31, of Sultan street, Camberwell, driver in the 30th Reserve Battery of the Royal Field Artillery, was charged with being an absentee from Ins corps since Sunday last. When arrested by P.C. Hansford, the prisoner said the reason he did not back was that had a child lying very ill in Belgrave Hospital. Mr Biron committed the prisoner to await military escort. The prisoner, mentioning that the child might die at any moment, asked that he might allowed to visit the hospital before he was handed over to the military authorities. " We will try and manage that for you" replied Biron. His worship gave instructions the police accordingly.

    More ... This unusual event was reported in The Irish Times on 27 May. ‘A British airship, flying the naval ensign and bearing the Allied distinguishing mark – coloured circles – on its rudders, appeared over Dublin yesterday (Friday 26 May), and attracted very keen attention. It was first noticed east of the Custom House, and, after flying over the neighbourhood of Amiens Street Station, passed over the ruins of the Imperial Hotel, crossed Sackville Street, then turned south nearly as far as the offices of the Port and Docks Board. It then proceeded eastwards over the Liffey, and performed some evolutions over the buildings on the South Wall. As it came low an excellent view of its design was obtained by the hundreds of persons observing its movement. Three figures could be seen in the airship. The navigating officers acknowledged the cheers of the crowd by waving their hands.' ... From - thecricketbatthatdiedforireland.com/2013/02/23/the-first-...
