Isn't that the same moustache as the one on the left of Monday's photo?

From 1913 Fox Greenhough & Co's premises in Kilkenny were 'in the street facing the Canal Square', Mr Greenhough having acquired a long lease for the shop, and remodelled it completely, with 'a comfortable and commodious reception room', and new facilities for developing and printing not only the firm's work, but also that of amateurs. No movable boudiour, though. (Kilkenny Moderator - Saturday 05 July 1913)

I think it might be this building . The article in the Kilkenny Moderator mentions the new recessed windows, so that people standing looking at the windows wouldn't obstruct the narrow pavement. PS and the article said it be noticeable when crossing John's Bridge.

Fox, Greenhough & Co were equal opportunity employers. Not fair to incompetent people, though.

Probably outside the 'circa 1912' date, but Kilkenny Moderator - Saturday 20 February 1915 reported:

ARRIVAL OF FIELD GUNS. During the week nine 15-pounder guns arrived in Kilkenny for use in training the R.F.A. Battery now stationed here. Much interest was evinced in the arrival of these deadly weapons of destruction. We also understand that about 300 horses are expected to arrive during the nest few-days, and that they will be quartered in St. James's Park.

They can't be too far from action - There's a fellah beside the wheel wearing a bandolier.

derangedlemur I guess with a country this size, being on a ship wouldn't ever leave you very far from shore/action...

The Free State's forces took the south and west of Ireland with landings from the sea. Seaborne landings were the first proposed by Emmet Dalton and then adopted by Michael Collins. Their plan was to avoid the hard fighting that would inevitably occur if they advanced overland through Republican held Munster and Connaught. To this end, they commandeered several civilian passenger ships to transport troops. They were the Arvonia and the SS Lady Wicklow[4] They were escorted by British naval vessels [5]

National Library of Ireland on The Commons haha this said, try to be in a place smaller than Ireland - like Kuwait :)

The first naval landing took place at Clew Bay in County Mayo on 24 July and helped re-take the west of Ireland for the Free State. This force, consisting of 400 Free State soldiers, one field gun and an armoured car under Christopher O'Malley, re-took the Republican held town of Westport and linked up with another Free State column under Sean MacEoin advancing from Castlebar. A Free State column also dispersed anti-Treaty IRA forces in Donegal in Ireland's north-west. The largest seaborne landings took place in the south. Ships disembarked about 2,000 well equipped Free State troops into the heart of the "Munster Republic" and caused the rapid collapse of the Republican position in this province. Paddy Daly and the Dublin Guard landed at Fenit in County Kerry on 31 July and fought their way into Tralee at the cost of 9 killed and 35 wounded. They were reinforced on 3 August, by around 250 pro-treaty IRA men from County Clare, embarked from Kilrush to Tarbert in fishing boats. The Free State forces rapidly occupied the towns in the county but the Republican units in Kerry survived more or less intact and would fight a determined guerrilla campaign for the remainder of the war. If the Munster Republic had a capital, it was Cork and the largest seaborne landings of the civil war were aimed at taking that city. Emmet Dalton led 800 troops, with two artillery pieces and armoured cars, who landed at Passage West, near the city, on 8 August. A further 200 men were put ashore at Youghal and 180 troops landed at Glandore. After some fighting at Rochestown in which 9 Free State and 7 Republican fighters were killed, the badly armed anti-treaty IRA in Cork did not try to resist this offensive but burned Charles Barracks, near Kinsale, which they were holding, and dispersed. On 10 August, Cork city was retaken, the last city to fall in the "Munster Republic". Liam Lynch, the Republican commander in chief abandoned Fermoy, the last Republican held town, the following day. In leaving Fermoy, he issued an order to troops under his command to stop trying to hold fixed positions and to form flying columns to pursue guerrilla warfare.

Our dearest allies and friends across the Tasman. Who also gave so much. We Will remember them. Lest we forget.

Thanks to all of you for your reseach. We'll add some of the information to the record the next time we update.

Seguramente el apostar cañones en Brownsville, Texas, apuntando hacia Matamoros, Tamaulipas, era la estrategia que se tenía preparada para invadir México. Situación que culminó con la invasión de Veracruz por la Marina Norteamericana, el 21 de abril de 1914. Recuerde que la Marina Americana estaba apostada en aguas tampiqueñas depués del "incidente" de día 9 de abril. Estas fotos del 5 DE ABRIL, SEGURAMENTE DE 1914, hablan que Woodrow Wilson ya venía preparando la provocación y el conflicto armado con México. Bain News used the sticker to print month, day and year. Why is it blanck?
