Irish Labour Party and Trades Union Congress

Did Poole do nothing but hang around outside that hotel with a camera photgraphing random mobs of suits?

From the Irish Examiner on Tuesday, 6 August 1918...

The twenty-fourth annual Irish Trades Union Congress was opened in the City Hall, Waterford, yesterday, under most encouraging and happy circumstances. There was a very large and representative attendance, about 240 delegates from every part of the country being present. The spacious hall was filled to its utmost capacity, and the proceedings were characterised by unanimity and enthusiasm. A civic welcome was extended to the delegates by Councillor Ml. Kirwan, locum tenens for the Mayor, who was absent owing to illness, and local speakers also extended greetings to the delegates. The Congress will occupy three days.

Mrs. Paul Drennan Cravath was Agnes Huntington (1862-1926), a former opera singer; and her daughter was Vera Agnes Huntington Cravath (1895-1985): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Drennan_Cravath books.google.com/books?id=34hmAAAAMAAJ&dq=%22Agnes%20... Vera married James Satterwhite Larkin in the summer of 1917, and she married William Francis Gibbs in 1927. Elsewhere:

Mrs. Cravath is holding a rosette, likely won by Vera or by her father, Paul D. Cravath.

indicated that both were entered for the Mineola Horse Show -- so this may be the location.

I wondered what she was holding! Mothers are always stuck holding things. ;)
