    It seems the image needs flipping. Also in the NLI catalogue is the same image via Messrs Keogh (unflipped with a buttonhole on the correct side) - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000029661 . The caption for the Keogh image says "Peter Clancy (Co. Clare), Sentenced to Death, Sentence commuted to 10 Years' Penal Servitude." Which surely implies the image is 1916 or before? Perhaps Mr Hogan copied the original c. 1922? Peadar Mac Fhlannchadha; 9 November 1888 – 21 November 1920 - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peadar_Clancy

    Better known as Peadar Clancy, he was active in the 1916 uprising. He, Dick McKee & Conor Clune we’re shot at Dublin Castle on the evening of Bloody Sunday. He was a draper by trade and had a shop on O’Connell Street called Republican Outfitters.

    Train Ferry No. 2 ... ... "The ship was built by Armstrong, Whitworth & Company Ltd, Low Walker and launched in 1917. Along with her sister ships SS Train Ferry No. 1 and SS Train Ferry No. 3, they were the first vessels to offer regular transport between Britain and continental Europe for rail freight vehicles. They were ordered by the British Army to provide rail freight transport from Richborough harbour to the continent to sustain the war effort. They had four sets of rails along the train deck and used a link span to load when in harbour. On 1 February 1919 she was involved in the rescue of British and American soldiers from the American transport Narrangansett which had gone ashore on Bembridge Point, Isle of Wight.[2] In March 1922 she was sent to Ireland to expedite the transfer of surplus Army motor transport.[3] She made several voyages from Cork and Dublin to Liverpool but was back at Plymouth in December.[4] After their use by the British Army ended in 1922, they were purchased by the Great Eastern Railway ... ..."

    Cork ? If this was Lapps Quay, the customs base, there should be tram lines opposite on Albert Quay. I doubt this is Cork City.
