    Other press reports say that 5 of the 7 members of the delegation were Quakers.

    In order that the truth of the existing conditions in Ireland should be known, the Committee sent a delegation of American citizens, all of whom were members of the religious Society of Friends, to make an impartial investigation and ascertain to what extent the American Committee might be called upon for aid. The delegation consisted of Messrs. R. Barclay Spicer, Phila- delphia, Pa. ; Oren B. Wilbur, Greenwich, N. Y. ; Philip W. Furnas, Canby, Ind. ; William Price, Philadelphia, Pa.; John C. Baker, Everett, Pa.; and Walter C. Longstreth, Philadelphia, Pa. They were accompanied by Messrs. C. J. France, Seattle, Wash., Chair- man, and Samuel D. McCoy, New York City, Secretary, and arrived in Ireland on February 12, 1921. Their report, which is printed in full on pages 62 to 67, was used as the basis of the amount of relief work that the Committee might have to furnish. archive.org/details/irelandcommitt00amerrich/page/48/mode... So if that's them, we're missing a few.

    At the annual meeting of the Irish Agricultural Organization Society in Dublin on March 22nd last, at which Mr. France was present, the annual report was submitted. So possibly March 1921?

  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Thanks, Amina, that's a lovely compliment!
  • Richard Cowdell said:
    At school I hated history with a vengeance as Joyce put it "a nightmare from which I am trying to escape". Dull and dry - dates, dates and more dates. When I see pictures like these they bring history to life and it becomes interesting. Thank you for posting them.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    You're very welcome, Richard! Really appreciate you taking the time to comment...

    The red hand of Ulster is a right hand. I think the image is reversed.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Beara Peninsula Here's another shot the right way around. (It also says Lord Mayor backwards below the Red Hand).
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    If it was August 1921, then there are only a limited number of dates it can be. The Dáil only sat from August 16th to 27th. Probably it's of the opening of the Second Dáil on August 16th.
  • Swordscookie said:
    Trying to identify the characters in the shot will not be easy as they are very spread out and there are a lot of empty seats! I see Arthur Griffith on the couch in the front with his arm draped over the armrest. The man beside his could be Michael Collins but that will be hard to confirm as he has his head down. On the far side is Count Plunkett easily identifiable due to his age and full beard! Who is the Chair? WT Cosgrave perhaps????

    Swordscookie Sean, this was where the note function came into its own.
