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 fortified tower of the Dublin Bread Company — a tearoom, cafe and meeting place popular with chess players — was used by rebels to return fire to snipers on the roof of Trinity. It was but a shell by Friday of the Rebellion, and was never reconstructed. A bank was built in its place.
