    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.

    The red hand of Ulster is a right hand. I think the image is reversed.

    Beara Peninsula Here's another shot the right way around. (It also says Lord Mayor backwards below the Red Hand).
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    If it was August 1921, then there are only a limited number of dates it can be. The Dáil only sat from August 16th to 27th. Probably it's of the opening of the Second Dáil on August 16th.

    Trying to identify the characters in the shot will not be easy as they are very spread out and there are a lot of empty seats! I see Arthur Griffith on the couch in the front with his arm draped over the armrest. The man beside his could be Michael Collins but that will be hard to confirm as he has his head down. On the far side is Count Plunkett easily identifiable due to his age and full beard! Who is the Chair? WT Cosgrave perhaps????
