    Death record aged 55 in Cork, 1880, I'd say this portrait is not too many years earlier.

    The DIB says: Although he was one of the first parliamentary committee of eight MPs that formed the home rule party with Butt as its leader in 1874, failing health limited his political involvement to agitating on behalf of temperance societies, and supporting Bishop Thomas Furlong (qv) in a successful attempt to close public houses within the Ferns diocese on religious holidays. He died 2 November 1880 from heart disease in Cork after making his last public appearance in Dublin the previous week.

    Queen Mary's shamrock brooch - "One of my favorite royal shamrock jewels, Queen Mary’s Emerald Shamrock Brooch, now belongs to Prince and Princess Michael of Kent. The jewel was likely one of Mary’s wedding gifts, perhaps the trefoil brooch offered to her by the Royal St George Yacht Club in Dublin. The brooch was later passed along to Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent, and then to her younger son." From - www.thecourtjeweller.com/2020/03/royal-shamrock-brooches....

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons I think we might require a horizontal flip (as the actress said to the bishop). The King's medals, the Queen's brooch, Mr Redmond's coat etc.

    "DEMONSTRATIVE IRISH GUARDS. REPRIMAND IN BARRACKS. The Irish Guards, a number of whom loudly cheered Messrs. Redmond and Dillon on Wednesday as they were returning from the palace conference, were yesterday paraded in Wellington Barracks. Lieutenant-Colonel G. H. Morris, addressing the men, said he was sorry that soldiers in uniform should have given way to a political demonstration. NOTIFICATION TO SOLDIERS. The War Office has issued an order prohibiting soldiers from associating with the Ulster and National Volunteers.

The conference, held between 21 and 24 July 1914, achieved very little.
