From the above link - "... The Nationalist weekly paper, New Ireland, edited by Patrick J. Little (1884-1963), published the text of the document, a single sheet handbill entitled ''Secret Orders issued to Military Officers'' in its issue for Saturday 22 April 1916 (vol. II no. 49), just two days before the Easter Rising began. However MacNeill discovered, sometime around 20 April that the 'Castle Document' was a fake. He put an advertisement in the Irish Independent newspaper which told all volunteers that 'No parades, marches or other movements of the Volunteers will take place.' This cancellation caused the IRB to move back the rebellion one day to Easter Monday - 24 April, 1916. Many rural Volunteers, who had come to town on Sunday only to hear the rebellion was cancelled, returned home. Although all the Rising's leaders now realised that they were doomed, they still went ahead with the plans for rebellion. There are only one or two recorded copies of this important document in public records. Very few can have survived as the printing would appear to have been small and the method of distribution via newspapers aborted. None of the textbook histories actually quote from it but rather paraphrase its content.. In terms of this identification, the only full printing of the was in the last issue of New Ireland before its suppression just prior to the Rising. ... ... "

"and what was the result of the operation?" The divided Ireland you enjoy to this day.

So this is the actual text of the Castle Document forgery?

There's an interesting story here about The Duc/Prince de Sagan: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=990CE2DB1530E132A... There's a few details missing, but part of it reads like something from a Victorian occult novel. Apparently, the Duc/Prince also tried to marry Anna Gould: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9C05E6DE143EE233A...

Here is an interesting article also: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9804E7DA1139E3... Actually he succeeded in marrying Anna Gould. This appears to be a photo of Helie who was married to Anna Gould (the American heiress from Tarrytown, NY). There are several photos of her and her house are on Flickr LoC collection, try the tags. Article on Anna Gould from Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna_Gould Anna's 2nd husband was Helie de Talleyrand-Perigord (1859-1937) Prince de Sagan. He is also known as Le Marquis de Talleyrand Perigord, Duc de Sagan. This looks like it is a photo of Helie (age 53 in 1912) holding their son Howard. Sadly, Howard later would shoot himself in his mother's apartment when annoyed with his mother when she told him he could not get married (he was then 19) because she would not give her permission until age 21. (see citation in Wikipedia article). Howard was born in 1909, so he would be around 3 if this photo is from 1912. Howard died at age 19 in 1929. Father Helie died in 1937 at age 78.

looks like the prince is wearing a poodlehair coat! cute pic!
