    Evidently people used to say “prunes” instead of “cheese” when being photographed. PRUNES !

    Art O Briain

    Is that beardy lad beside him the same Fintan Murphy as in this one? (guessed at 1919-20)

    First Envoy to the Irish Republic in London : Art Ó Bríain 1919-1924, with members of the staff.

    Suck Diesel For clarity, which numbers, please?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    From wikipedia: The Second Dáil consisted of members elected at the 1921 elections, but with only members of Sinn Féin taking their seats. On 7 January 1922, it ratified the Anglo-Irish Treaty by 64 votes to 57 which would be 121 TDs, so this is only a small minority. Wikipedia lists the members, and there are only 5 women. I think 3 is Kathleen Clarke, 17 might be Mary MacSwiney. I don't think Countess Markievicz or Margaret Pearse are pictured.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The catalogue says Count Plunkett and William Cosgrave are here, the Count would be number 8, but I don't see Cosgrave.
  • Carol Maddock said:
    Niall McAuley I think Cosgrave is a Krazy Kataloguer mistake too! Agree on no. 8 being Count Plunkett. But I disagree about no. 3 and no. 17. I believe no. 3 is Kate/Kathleen O'Callaghan, and that no. 6 is Mary MacSwiney.

    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.
