    According to this the date should be 26th July at the earliest.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Sharon Corbet Well spotted Sharon!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    At first sight, I thought the Georgian doorways behind do not look fancy enough for this to be Merrion Street, but looking at Streetview, I think those buildings have been redeveloped, and the fancy Georgian doorays there now are fakes.

    Irish times has a piece about this visit on Wednesday 30th July, so perhaps the visit was on the 29th. National Library of Ireland on The Commons Mary can you get the full story from the IT archive?
  • DannyM8 said:
    Devoy had a big reputation as evidenced by the latter quote from [www.jamesdurney.com/john-devoy-forgotten-hero-unrepentant...] The Times of London, the voice of the British establishment, unwittingly saluted John Devoy by saying he was ‘the most bitter and persistent, as well as the most dangerous, enemy of this country which Ireland has produced since Wolfe Tone’.

    What a lovely old ship.
    Has anyone else noticed that the 'Favorites' star isn't working?

    FrigateCol Favourites star working for me - Flickr is still very glitchy, and I particularly miss the Preview Comment button.

    The original size of this is ENORMOUS, and THETIS is written on the bow. I thought it might have been the CAPTAIN COOK (1), the Pilot Steamer.

    Aha! Snap! The same image at State Records NSW (4481_a026_000478). Theirs might well be the original glass plate negative.

    The State Records NSW blurb - "The pilot steamer Thetis, built in 1868 for the New South Wales Department of Public Works. In 1871 the Thetis was placed in temporary service as Sydney's Pilot Steamer until 1877."
    The blurbs for this particular Series at SRNSW are notoriously inaccurate, so let's see if we can improve on the history of this wonderful ship ...
