Oh dear! This article thinks it was May 22nd, a Saturday. Read All About It ! ... trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/170908241 Here is what Dr Sigerson said (while this photo was taken!) - ""In the name of the National Literary Society of Ireland, I now unveil and confide to the custody of the Commissioners and to the care of the public this memorial of Clarence Mangan. Against the dark background of his life he raised a fabric of fair poetry, which shines bright as 'apples of gold amid foliage of silver'— the admiration of other lands, the glory of his country. In gratitude for his genius, in memory of his patriotism, in evidenoe that our generation is not forgetful of benefactors, and in the hope of inspiration to future times, we erect this monument. Here, in the city of his birth, in the land of his love, we erect it, bearing its beautiful symbol of our Ideal Erinn, whose desire and whose honour abide in the noble affection of an undivided nation. Thus, finally, do we faithfully carry out the injunction of 'The Preacher* of old: 'And now let us give praise to men of renown, our fathers in their generations.' " (Applause).

Here is the bould Sigerson himself in the 1911 census, a Physician and Professor National University, and at wikipedia, which confirms that the 3rd level GAA Sigerson Cup is named is his honour, what with him having paid for the trophy.
