Alien seaman Moore

    From the DIB: He went on the run, hiding in Co. Clare for several months before escaping to Liverpool (this time allegedly disguised as a nun) and on to New York where he worked for John Devoy's (qv) paper, the Gaelic American, writing articles on the Fianna and the Easter rising. In attempting to get to Germany to buy arms (October 1917) he was arrested, along with Dr Pat McCartan (qv), on charges of conspiring to impersonate an American seaman. He spent several weeks in the notorious ‘Tombs’ prison before bail was raised, and was eventually fined $250 in May 1919.

    I wonder if Edward Moore was a real person or was it just a made up name for the purpose of obtaining the registration card?
  • Carol Maddock said:
    Meanwhile, back in Dublin... (I had forgotten Liam Mellows was a TD at this time. And Mellowes versus Mellows.) This is from the Evening Echo, 11 October 1920:
    MRS. MELLOWES' HOME
    Raided And Searched By Troops.


    The house of Mrs Mellowes, at 21 Mount Shannon street, Dublin, was raided by military on Saturday morning from 1 o'clock to 1.30.
    The military entered through front and back doors, which they pierced with their bayonets, also breaking windows. Mrs. Mellowes was detained under guard at the front door by military when she opened it.
    She is the mother of Mr Liam Mellowes, T.D., at present in the United States.
    It is believed that the raiders were in search of Mr Bernard Mellowes, another son of Mrs Mellowes.
    There was no one in the house at the time of the raid but the lady mentioned.
    The raiders asked Mrs Mellowes where her son Liam was, as they would "like to have met him."
    She replied: "He would like to have met you, too."
    The raiders searched the house, and caused much damage to articles of food and furniture.
    Mrs Mellowes is widow, her husband having died a few weeks ago.

For God's sake nobody smile?

    Evidently people used to say “prunes” instead of “cheese” when being photographed. PRUNES !

    Art O Briain

    Is that beardy lad beside him the same Fintan Murphy as in this one? (guessed at 1919-20)

    I wonder if Silvino Mattos in his Consultario Cirurgico-Dentario can clear a mouth as quickly as Surgeon Dentist Mr W. James in Portadown.

    I think that lamp extravaganza puts our Five Lamps in the shade...
  • John Spooner said:
    Is that '1909' in the shade on the base of the lamp?
