    Any chance that that photo is reversed and this is a view looking east? The bank (Hill 16?) n the background doesn't seem to sit right with Cassini. Of course, I could be looking at it backwards myself. Edit: I got it backwards, so view looking west

House in Templemore in aftermath of raid by Tans - boy boarding up window and child with a small ball

    Hogan was in Templemore on 22nd August to photograph the "bleeding statues", so this may have been taken at the same time. There's a history of the "Templemore Miracles" at History Ireland. Including the following: According to an eye-witness, [Michael] Collins ‘. . . took hold of the statue and banged it off the side of the desk, and of course out fell the works of the alarm clock. “I knew it”, he says. So that was the end of the bleeding statue.’ Also here: www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/6068653601/in/photolist-a...

  • Sharon Corbet said:
    derangedlemur It's working for me. (But isn't really helping me to identify the house...)

    "On the night of 16 August 1920 ‘wild scenes were witnessed’ in Temple-more as the North-amptonshire Regiment carried out reprisals following the killing of RIC District Inspector Wilson by the IRA. According to a local press report, ‘soldiers joined in the outbreak . . . volleys were fired, houses attacked, shops looted, the town hall was burned down, and three creameries destroyed’. (Ironically, two members of the regiment, Captain S. H. Beattie MC and Lance Corporal H. J. Fuggle, were to lose their lives in the fire.)" Templemore was a hotbed of insurrection around that time and there were several killings, numerous burnings and raids by RIC, Black and Tans and the military aplenty! This could have been after one of those but I agree with Sharon, Hogan was virtually embedded with Collins and Co. and probably went there with him. Templemore has changed dramatically in the meantime and this house is unlikely to still be there. I love the line "Child with a small ball" What would whoever wrote the title call a sliothar then???

Peter Clancy the charismatic "Superman"

    Lovely reverie.

    It seems the image needs flipping. Also in the NLI catalogue is the same image via Messrs Keogh (unflipped with a buttonhole on the correct side) - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000029661 . The caption for the Keogh image says "Peter Clancy (Co. Clare), Sentenced to Death, Sentence commuted to 10 Years' Penal Servitude." Which surely implies the image is 1916 or before? Perhaps Mr Hogan copied the original c. 1922? Peadar Mac Fhlannchadha; 9 November 1888 – 21 November 1920 - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peadar_Clancy

    Better known as Peadar Clancy, he was active in the 1916 uprising. He, Dick McKee & Conor Clune we’re shot at Dublin Castle on the evening of Bloody Sunday. He was a draper by trade and had a shop on O’Connell Street called Republican Outfitters.
