    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.

    Another Wynne Wynne situation ! The original quote is from 2 Samuel 1:23 - "Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, And in their death they were not divided: They were swifter than eagles, They were stronger than lions. See - www.bible.com/bible/12/2SA.1.23.ASV

    I found an Irish Times article, and the story is a bit more complicated than the Sydney Evening News makes it out. To paraphrase, the Bishop and his wife were in Dublin because Mrs Wynne was ill. She had an operation, and her condition initially seemed favorable, however, on the Monday night she began to get worse. In the end, her husband went to fetch the doctor (about a mile away). The Bishop left the doctor's house to return, with the doctor a few minutes behind him, however, the Bishop never arrived at the house that he and his wife were staying at. The Bishop was later found unconscious on the footpath, and died before being brought into the house. His wife was not told, but succumbed a few hours later from her symptoms.
