    John MacBride. 7 May 1868 – 5 May 1916 "His red hair and long nose led to him being given the nickname "Foxy Jack"." Much more at - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_MacBride

    Here is a titbit of information from 1903 via Trove ... "... When MacBrlde was in an engagement at Modderspruit in October, 1899, a shell burst above a rock behind which he was taking cover. Instinctively he put his hand up to his neck, and a splinter tore an agate from the bezil of his ring. He lost the stone, but the rest of it is now his wife's wedding-ring."

    This image and text, along with memorials to the other men executed, appear together in this poster published by Powell Press, of 22 Parliament Street (close to Dublin City Hall). Seemingly there were also postcard versions (which this one may have been). Also published by Powell Press. I haven't found anything more concrete to indicate when and who took the original.

    My mother had a great admiration for this man and there was a picture of him in the boys bedroom at home. I had this fellow looking down at me every morning when i woke up!

    Am I seeing electric lamps? See note.

    "No dogs will dine here by God!" Or, do you mean, no dogs on the menu, here? Or, were you referring to English?

    Large British flag with a crest in the middle of it, other one looks like a variation on the Red Ensign along the left wall. Flag from a unit at Waterloo? See on the left of these flags www.warflag.com/napflags/flaghtml/britKGL.htm
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY - I think Morning Mary was referring to the likelihood that the usual morning past-time (the dog hunt) would be fruitless today. (At least, as you say, if we didn't include any mystery meat from the menu...) Niall McAuley - Thanks for the "today" shot. I wonder where all the weapons went.... oaktree_brian_1976 - Any flags that you can see that might help refine the date range a little? Though maybe beachcomber australia is onto something with the lighting...
