"Meeting...ruins...after C. War"

    A lot of ladies in the audience, a female speaker and the word 'Excommunicated' on the bottom of the banner. No obvious Police or Army presence. Joan of Arc (1412–1431) was formally canonized as a saint of the Roman Catholic Church on 16 May 1920, but Her Feast day is 30 May.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Per the Indo: In fact, one has to go back as far as 1920 for the last time an Irish person had excommunication imposed on them. It happened during the War of Independence and was declared by Bishop Daniel Cohalan of Cork. Alarmed by the scale of the violence that had engulfed his diocese, he insisted "that anyone who organised or took part in an ambush or in kidnapping or otherwise shall be guilty of murder, or attempt at murder, shall incur by the very fact the censure of excommunication". A number of Republicans were subsequently excommunicated and it has been suggested that future Taoiseach Éamon de Valera was among those who suffered the censure.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    We have seen those swan necked lights many times in central Dublin, I don't think we have seen one in Cork...
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The "Blessed Joan of Arc was Excommunicated" certainly suggests the War of Independence/Civil War, and that this is an anti-Treaty meeting. Anti treaty feeling was stronger in Cork than Dublin.
  • Mossy Carey said:
    Could it be after the burning of Macroom Castle?

What an absolute to-do!

    Streetview.

    I will guess the finale of a game of stick hole ball.

  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley I was hoping for something more exciting than a game of stick hole ball. Didn't think it'd be that popular.

Anybody here seen Kelly?

    That’s what 16 days of internment in a British jail does for you

    Ever hear of Kelly’s Corner?
  • Swordscookie said:
    Wow, that's an unexpected backstory to a photo. Bowen -Colthurst really did get away with multiple murders.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Suck Diesel Did not know the origin of Kelly's Corner, so thank you.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Swordscookie And explains why Hanna would have this image of Alderman James Kelly.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    So, date established - 1916. And we now know it was taken in London after Kelly's release from Wandsworth Prison.
