The Capuchin Archives think this is Irish National Convention of the Land League, Dublin, 1881.

I see a related Facebook page suggesting the bearded gent at left is Michael Davitt.

The note on the back says:

Group of delegates at Rotunda Gardens
N.I.L. or Land League?
in eylidas [can't make that out]

On the front it says:
Richard ~~Sheiling~~ Sheehy Snr.
(2nd row, old man standing)

And at right there is an arrow identifying a David Sheehy

Niall McAuley More than happy to accept September 1881 if the Capuchin Archives say so.
Niall McAuley said:
Per the DIB: Sheehy, David (1844–1932), parliamentarian and agrarian radical, was born 14 October 1844 in Broadford, Co. Limerick, second of three children of Richard Sheehy, mill owner, and Johanna Sheehy (née O'Shea)

“Roosevelt wore this elegant slate-blue silk crepe evening gown designed by Sally Milgrim for the 1933 inaugural ball in Washington DC. Her gown was embroidered with a leaf-and-flower design in gold thread.

The gown featured unique detachable long sleeves that were attached by beautiful blue moonstone and rhinestone shoulder clips. The belt buckle and was also made of rhinestone and moonstone.”

What more can I say?
Suck Diesel said:
FDR himself served four terms, something not since possible, due to the Twenty-second Amendment which now limits office to two terms.

However, his current successor said on a recent TV interview that that he was looking for ways to contest a third term.

Once I had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalogue: "No good in a bed, but fine up against a wall.”

beachcomber australia I love this one! I do hope she really said it...
The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!
