Trove has a possible hit: RIOT IN DUBLIN. Police Inspector Killed., LONDON, June 11. A riot occurred, in Dublin on Sunday in connection with a meeting to protest against the treatment of Irish political offenders. Inspector Mills, of the Dublin Metropolitan Police, was killed during the disturbance. Count Plunkett, M.P., and four other persons were arrested.

It was the evening of Sunday 10 June 1917, according to the Sydney Morning Herald of 12/6/17 p.7 - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/15714554
A later message states:- An attempt to hold a prohibited meeting in Dublin on Sunday evening culminated in a riot. When Count Plunkett and a man named Brugha drove up in a motor near Liberty Hall, about 1000 surged round the car. Brugha called out "The British Government will not allow us freedom of speech." A police-man pulled him from the car. Plunkett tried to stop the mob from shouting, he also was arrested. Meanwhile, the police dispersed the greater part of the mob. Inspector Mills was escorting the prisoners when someone felled him with a stick. He died later.

Great photo.

Again. Lady in centre in white is, I think, Delia Larkin. On her left is possibly Hanna Sheehy Skeffington and it may be Louie Bennett on her right. In the second row, second from right may be Constance Marckievicz. Hanna Sheehy's Skeffington's husband, Francis Sheehy Skeffington was shot on Mount Street Bridge in 1916 for no valid reason. This is the third picture showing Delia Larkin and another Library picture also shows her with Hanna Sheehy Skeffington and the lady who may be Louie Bennett. Don't know if that is yet in Flickr

If it is Constance Markievicz on second row, second from right, then the lady first on right is surely her sister, Eva Gore Booth. Eva suffered from ill health after her early years of beauty and this picture shows it.

Mossy Carey Not sure that on Delia's left is Hanna Sheehy-Skeffington. This is Hanna, pictured 2-3 years after this photo was taken: multitext.ucc.ie/viewgallery/354 Can't find any clear early photos (definitely) of Louie Bennett to compare against. Also not convinced (sorry!) about Constance Markievicz. Here's an array of photos of Constance, many from our NLI collections: multitext.ucc.ie/viewgallery/1331

I wonder if Nora Connolly O'Brien - daughter of James - is one of these women? She was a member of Cuman na mBann.
