  Niall McAuley Very likely date period
  “At some point the well was opened again and by 1910 Grattan Flooded noted the old pilgrimage had been revived and the current wall surrounding the well was erected. The popularity of the pilgrimage is indicated by an add in the Irish Independent September 19th 1910 that noted a car service will to ferry pilgrims from Enniscorthy railway station to the well and back for a fee of 1s. 6d.”

Cecil Rhodes memorial - Buluwayo (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statue_of_Cecil_Rhodes,_Bulawayo
  
  "The statue of Cecil John Rhodes in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, is a bronze sculpture of the British colonialist, businessman and politician who was the founder of the British South Africa Company (BSAC), through which he founded the southern African territory of Rhodesia.
  The statue was sculpted by a Scottish sculptor, John Tweed and was erected in Bulawayo city centre in 1904. In February 1981, after Southern Rhodesia's independence as Zimbabwe in 1980, the statue was removed from the city centre; it was relocated to the centenary park at the Natural History Museum of Zimbabwe."
