Wikipedia includes a photo in O'Connell Street labelled: The inauguration of Seán T. O'Kelly as President of Ireland in 1945. The 2nd Cavalry Squadron of the Blue Hussars escort the President, who travelled in the late Queen Alexandra's landau. The Landau and the Hussars were later scrapped which may explain why I never heard of them before.

A pic auctioned at Whytes is labellled: The Blue Hussars, officially called the Mounted Escort, was a ceremonial unit of the Irish Army established in 1932. It escorted the President of Ireland on state occasions, most famously to and from presidential inaugurations between 1938, when the first president took office, and 1948 when the Escort was disbanded.Seven photographs of the procession of president Sean T. O'Kelly on his inauguration. O'Kelly travelled in the late Queen Alexandra's horse-drawn landau, the first (and only) time when a president went to his or her inauguration in a horse-drawn carriage rather than a car, escorted by the Mounted Escort, or Blue Hussars"; together with a copy photograph of mounted British troops at Dublin Castle.

Via Peace and Nonviolence Ireland / INNATE who writes,
"Not very exciting to look at on the surface, this bench remembering Louie Bennett and her partner Helen Chenevix is situated in the little nook or alcove of the Garden for the Blind in St Stephen's Green, Dublin. But maybe in providing a piece of rest and quiet - and thus service to passing humanity - it is a fitting tribute to these two remarkable women. Sit awhile and ponder... "

At the www.dib.ie/biography/bennett-louisa-louie-a0581She is possibly best remembered for her leadership in the laundry workers' strike of 1945, during which IWWU members successfully fought for a fortnight's paid holiday.
