National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
beachcomber australia OMG - We have had a very technical problem today - Poor Maud is GONE, deleted in error due to a glitch in our systems. As you all know deleted on Flicker means deleted. Our plan is to post her again next week and see if we can recreate the excellent detective work from yesterday. If you have a copy of the comments in your history or anywhere on your computer, please do send them on to us. Mary

M Cassin is mentioned in the Waterford Standard Saturday 24 June 1933 as presiding over a meeting of the Corporation Housing Committee in his capacity as Mayor. He was a councillor as early as 1907 (elected to the Street Committee and the Public Health Committee, and was the councils's representative on the Harbour Board ).

Some Good News - we did manage to find the following comments from yesterday. sam2centsPRO said: Carol Maddock J. V. Robinson must have been a pretty successful photographer in the first place to afford such a device, and very proficient at the scientific arts involved to have designed such a beast. Someone worth knowing way more about. As for Maud Gonne, I had no idea she was so tall, but I see in group photos she towers over other women. Her daughter, the one Yeats was interested in, was very ... BeachcomberAustralia added tags: feather, boa philfluther said: The Hannah Arendt of WW1, "an inconceivable madness". John Spooner said: Sam Here is J V Robinson's obituary in the Irish Times on Monday 21 October 1901 . 10 hours ago sam2centsPRO said: John Spooner Thanks John! I like the line 'in this age of universal electric lighting'. 7 hours ago You said: Thanks Sharon Corbet, Carol Maddock, John Spooner, beachcomber australia, Sam, all. I've mapped this one to the suggested Paris studio address. And, to avoid suggestions of time travel, updated the date to c.1896 :) I've added a short note on the inscription (and its dedicator and dedicatee) to the text. Much appreciated as usual! 7 hours ago oaktree_brian_1976 said: Miss Gonne belongs to an English and Protestant family; it was because she owned land in Ireland that she had the opportunity to witness the painful spectacle of Irish misery and resolved to relieve it. "I gave my life to Ireland, she tells us, until the home ride is stolen. But I did not give up the religion of my fathers. Miss Maud, tall and slender, with a frail appearance, conceals a virile ... 7 hours ago oaktree_brian_1976 said: more photos, 1892 gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b8596905t/f23.i tem 6 hours ago oaktree_brian_1976 said: Maud Gonne gave lectures. In a monotonous and tireless voice, taking from her aquamarine eyes the sky to witness, she narrated the misery of the peasants of her country, the atrocities of landlords, and dedicated to the wrath of Hell the Protestants of Ulster she called "these abominable Orangist hypocrites".

E.T. Keane is described as "Chairman of Election Meeting" in this photo of Dev, also in Kilkenny (and I assume the same occasion).

Sharon Corbet said:
Edward Thomas Keane was a journalist and Editor of the Kilkenny People according to his biography. There's a mention further down that "Often critical of the Irish parliamentary party, he became a supporter of Sinn Féin and played a prominent part in the election of W. T. Cosgrave (qv) as Sinn Féin MP for Kilkenny city in 1917".

John Spooner said:
A Mr E. T. Keane was editor of the "Kilkenny People". The paper was "suppressed" on July 8th 1917, and he was arrested at his home on Monday August 27th and taken by train via Cork to Waterford. He was released on the evening of the 29th. The reason given for his his arrest was a speech he made on 12th August (but not at Kilkenny).(Weekly Freeman's Journal - Saturday 01 September 1917). A quick scan of his name in papers suggests he had a lengthy career making newspapers and speeches. Here's a biography on facebook

According to the Irish Indo of 6th August 1917, there was a Sinn Féin Meeting held outside St. John's Church on the 5th August. (As was one for Mr Magennis). The meeting was in support of W.T. Cosgrove, chaired by E.T. Keane, and Dev was in attendence. There seems to have also been a later meeting on the Parade.
