The Glasnevin Trust has a numbered version available, with some of the names already filled in.

Sharon Corbet That cuts out most of the fun of the shot Sharon but it is interesting how many major players were present!

There are more names available in this Examiner article.

Swordscookie The numbering is helpful, though :-)

Keogh had to have taken the photograph from the roof of the Boland Chapel. Streetview The grave to bottom right is that of William Dargan another nation "builder". James O Dea's photographs are mostly of his work. "St. James’s Brass and Reed Band, Mount Brown, Dublin 8, is by far Ireland’s oldest band. It was established in 1800 but early records trace back as far as 1737."

"Patrick Byrne Monument
In the grounds of the Church of St Anthony of Egypt, Scotland Road, Liverpool is the monument to Irishman "Dandy" Patrick Byrne who went to Liverpool as a 17 year old emigrant from Wexford and became a successful businessman and a Liverpool Councillor. He died in 1890 and a monument acknowledging his generosity to the Irish people in the Scotland Road area was erected in Scotland Place outside of the Morning Star Pub which Patrick Byrne owned. The original monument was removed from Scotland Place when work began on the second Mersey tunnel in the late 1960s. The monument was moved to another location and from there subsequently finished up in a Liverpool Corporation Yard. The whereabouts of the monument became known in 1998 and efforts to restore as much of the remaining parts of the monument succeeded in having it sited in the grounds of St Anthony's Church."

beachcomber australia So we're not in Warrington at all, as we thought, but in Liverpool proper then? Must have been the "Warrington's Ales" that led the Krazy Kataloguer astray.

National Library of Ireland on The Commons Seems so.

"The Morning Star was situated at 24-28 Scotland Place. This pub has now been demolished."

"Possibly the best known pub, and one I have mentioned before in this blog, was the Morning Star at 24 Scotland Place. It was better known as Dandy Pat’s on account of its charismatic landlord Pat Byrne, also a Liverpool councillor. It was positioned at the city end of the Scottie where it became Byrom Street, most of which was demolished to make way for the second Mersey Tunnel road scheme. There is a great photo of the Morning Star with its front ‘arched’ windows, and Walker’s Warrington Ales sign on the left. In the centre is the Birmingham Arms ( a Threlfalls pub renowned for their blue and white livery, at 14 Scotland Place) next to the ’98 Shop’. In the centre next to the tramlines is the ‘Dandy Pat Memorial Fountain’ which, after a previous relocation, survives today in the grounds of St.Anthony’s church further along Scotland Road. ..."

McGlade - everything you wanted to know but were afraid to ask and asked about
(Daily Herald - Thursday 02 January 1913)

Bernard McGlade. Leicester Chronicle - Saturday 05 November 1898:

At Dublin on Saturday Mr John Doyle, confectioner, recovered 20 guineas damages from Bernard McGlade, billposter, for libel and conspiracy to slander. Mr Doyle had ceased to employ a trade unionist, and as a consequence of this action the trade union employed Mr McGlade to distribute circulars through the streets exhorting the public to have nothing to do with Doyle's confectionery.

More detail in Cotton Factory Times - Friday 04 November 1898:

The plaintiff's case was that a trade union official Game to him and told him thnt as he had ceased to employ a man who refused to work unless employed by the week, and had taken on another man by the day, he must "beware of himself." The next day and on some following days a man dressed as a clown, who was in the defendant's employ, stood Opposite the plaintiff's house and handed to the people who passed a handbill with the following offensive contents : " Rats I Rats! Rats! at J. G. Doyle's, Capel-street. Scab labour at J. G. Doyle's. Outcasts of Confectioners' Trade Union at J. G. Doyle's. Down with scab labour. Exterminate the Rats ! Rats! Rats!"— The plaintiff gave the man into custody, but the magistrate said he would not punish him, as the real criminal was McGlade.

and

In the meantime though McGlade ceased to send out bills the prosecution of the plaintiff did not cease, boys being sent to the shop who shouted out to customers " Don't go in and take scab cakes and sweets,t;" and to plaintiff's girls when they went out, "rats."

1901 census Bernard McGlade of Middle Abbey Street, 44, profession mistranscribed as 'pill porter', married with 4 children, one of whom is also a 'bill porter' (although either his wife Fanny's age is wrong or they were from a previous marriage). In the 1911 census the children have flown the nest, his wife (now Margaret) is the regulation 10 years older but Bernard is only one year older.

John Spooner Thank you, John. We asked if we could find out anything about Mr McGlade, but never dreamed of a story involving a henchman "... dressed as a clown"!

Dublin Evening Telegraph - Monday 1 August 1904: "The Oireachtas, the annual festival of the Gaelic League, was opened today at the Rotunda, and will continue each day during the week." Or possibly 1910, when it opened on Monday 1st August. (Evening Irish Times - Tuesday 2 August 1910)
