Workers on the steps of Liberty Hall

from National Library of Ireland on The Commons

  • Mossy Carey said:
    Delia Larkin, I think, holds the Irish Worker poster. She contributed to it weekly for its three year existence from 1911 to 1914. The printers then grew afraid to print it. She organised the feeding of three thousand children during the lockout and founded the Irish Women's Workers Union. It had distinctive badges and the women here may be wearing them. Davitt was dead since 1906 but W.M. Murphy, his fellow Nationalist, lived on to organise against the workers unions. He owned Dublin Tramways and the Irish Independent. Delia is also in another picture in the collection after the women's imprisonment. Beautiful Picture.

    Mossy Carey I'd agree, thank you!. Her very distinctive hair is a help in identification... I've replaced this photo with a clearer version. Because more detail is apparent, we can date it now to Saturday, 6 December 1913. So, someone identified, and another photo dated: Time to haul out the NLI Flickr Bell again, methinks - Ding, Ding, Ding!
