    I have seen this before in the context of one of your photographs, but I cant remember which one? Possibly the Dublin Bread Company?

    Interesting video - Padraig Yeates tells us about Irelands first bloody Sunday where between 400 to 600 Dubliners were seriously injured in Sackville Street (now O Connell Street) on August 31st 1913 following a passionate speech by trade unionist Jim Larkin. This was the beginning of the Great Dublin Lock-Out which left nearly a 1/3 of the population starving. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvplJ4XC_GI

    From his obituary in the London Times May 9 1927 Sir Ernest Godwin Swifte, K.C., died on May 7th 1927 aged 87. He was promoted to Chief Magistrate in 1910, and retired in 1921.
    He was the lineal descendent and representative of Godwin Swift, of Swift's Heath, Kilkenny, the uncle and guardian of Jonathan Swift, Dean of St. Patrick's. His uncle, Mr Godwin Meade Pratt Swift, when head of the Swift family in Ireland, revived the ancient spelling of Swifte for Swift, a change to which Sir Ernest Swifte's father conformed much to his regret, but which has not been adopted by other members of the family.
    DannyM8 "... was noted from his earliest years for his affection for dogs"

    In making his public appearance, Mr Larkin may have been delivering on a promise made some days ago, but he was also acting in defiance of an official proclamation prohibiting the holding of a meeting on Sackville street. Of course, Mr Larkin had flagged his intentions in advance; before a massive crowd of an estimated 10,000 people at Beresford Place two nights ago - August 29th - he not only made a very public point of burning a copy of the proclamation which barred the proposed meeting on; he also claimed that he cared as little for the King as he did for the magistrate, Mr. Swifte. The tenor of his remarks on that occasion led to a warrant for his arrest, yet until yesterday, Mr Larkin managed to evade the clutches of the police www.rte.ie/centuryireland/articles/larkin-makes-dramatic-... There is also a good photo of Larkin in disguise being arrested, and good reports of the events in the Imperial Hotel - which occupied part of the Clerys building.

Thought we were seeking St. George's Street! Turns out it was Gt. George's Street...
