Apparently this is the tomb of Feidlim Ua Conchobair (a.k.a. Fedhlim O'Connor) and is in the Dominican Priory in Roscommon which he founded in 1253.

OSI 25" The NIAH doesn't have an article on the Abbey itself, only the 19th Century graveyard in the grounds. There is also an article from The Journal of the Kilkenny and South-East of Ireland Archaeological Society from 1866 called "Some Remarks on O'Connor's Tomb at Roscommon" which goes into the history of the different parts of the tomb.

He founded the Dominican Priory in 1253, died in 1275 and was Cathal of the Red Hands son. A biography at www.libraryireland.com/HistoryIreland/Death-Felim-OConnor...

Ah yes these steam powered computers. You need to use best quality steam coal. Household stuff does not work so well. Next Irish truck passing I will but a pallet of Welsh coal on for you !!!!

I wonder what Poole was trying to mask behind. You can still see tablet for Captain Goff but only part of the text. I presume we are in Christ church Cathedral Waterford from tags and header notes. No pictures of Rice in their picture Gallery. christchurchwaterford.com/

George FitzPatrick Nothing like good Welsh coal to warm the cockles! Looking at the image on the lid it appears to be a "cadaver" rather than the usual fine robes? I don't think I've ever seen that on a sarcophagus before!

Burning Effigies

Judge Keogh died in October 1878. His obituary in Freeman's Journal began: Death in its most appalling shape has laid its hand upon one of the most singularly-gifted, fitfully-fated, and worst-detested Irishmen of his generation. and continued: ... sank and died yesterday morning far from the land which was in turn dazzled and horrified by the flashes of his lawless genius, in which he has been alternately blest and curst - in which, having postured his hour as the popular darling, he has lived to trample upon the people upon whose shoulders he climbed to power, and to repay their loathing with liberal interest. and continues for another 5 columns. Obviously not a popular man.
John Spooner said:
A search in Freeman's Journal for 'Judge Keogh effigy' gives 17 hits, all but one between June and August 1872. The burnings were in protest at his 'Galway judgement', when he disqualified a Captain Nolan from taking his seat in parliament. A quick scan shows effigy burnings in Cashel, Galway, Gort, Tuam, Dublin, Waterford, Tralee, Ballaghaderreen, Enniskillen, Ennis and Cavan in June (and I doubt that every burning was reported). The other hits concerned the subsequent court cases for affray and assault etc. In Derry the effigy was 'consigned to the waves'. Castlebar seems to have been rather more restrained as far as I can see - 'An immense crowd, preceded by a band ... After many a curse on Judge Keogh and after singing 'God save Ireland', the large crowd quietly dispersed' Later reports show the town raising money for Captain Nolan, and petitioning the House of Commons for the removal of Judge Keogh. One of the accounts mentions cries of 'So help me' during the burning, a phrase which appears on the effigy in the photo.

Excellent!
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
John Spooner Thank you, John, Judge Keogh really was not popular! May I just check with you, when was the Castlebar procession, as this is the most likely location and date for this photo?
John Spooner said:
National Library of Ireland on The Commons It was reported in the Saturday, June 1st 1872 edition, one of a number of 'extracts from correspondence and telegrams' received by the Freeman appearing under the heading 'Indignation in the Provinces'. The one from Castlebar is headed 'Castlebar, Thursday', which would be May 30th 1872. Whether the correspondent reported the march the following morning or straight away isn't clear. The judgment was made on Monday, the first effigy burning was in Galway on Tuesday evening (during which the police charged the crowd with drawn swords), and then effigy burning seemed to spread through Ireland over the following days, and become a national passtime.
