Trinity College, Dublin, in the crisis, proved

The surprise which
was sprung upon the city by the rebels left
the College unmoved.
The garrison was at
the time' small, but the spirit of the few
collegians who happened to be within the
gates was indomitable.
When the insurrection occurred the guard numbered eight, but
it was sufficient to hold the fort until reinforcements gradually arrived, and by Wednesday the men in College mustered the
respectable number of 150.

THE SURRENDER.
Dr. Myles Keogh, who, in company with Mr.
L. G. Redmond Howard and others, acted so
bravely in rescuing the wounded, tells of the
actual incident of the surrender of Ue Valera
near Ringsend. Dr. Keogh had just returned
at half-past twelve from Glasnevin Cemetery,
where he conveyed under the Red Cross flag
the remains of a civilian who had been fatally
wounded at Mount street Bridge. Dr. Keogh
had dismounted from the hearse and entered
the hall of Sir Patrick Dun's Hospital, when

De Valera.
"Who are you?" replied Dr. Myles Keogh.
The response was, " I am De Valera," from
one, and from the ether it was; "I am a
prisoner for the n^st five days. They want to
surrender." De Valera asked permission to use
the hospital telephone, in order to communicate with the military authorities.
Dr.
Keogh sent for Sir Arthur Ball, M.D., who
informed De Valera that the telephone communication had been cut off, and suggested
that he should proceed to the nearest military position, at the head of O rattan street,
off Lower Mount street.

SIR
General Sir John Maxwell made the following statement to a correspondent of the Daily

" The allegations of brutality seem almost
exclusively concerned with the fighting in
North King street. Our policy during the
suppiession of the rebellion was to put a
military cordon round the chief rebel area in
Sackville street, but when we had done so
we discovered that there was another centre
of importance at the Four Courts, and we
determined also to encircle that. One line
of this cordon was to pass through North
King street. We discovered, however, that
instead of being outside the rebel area, this

shots were fired from a particular house the
inmates were always necessarily aware of it

beside them by hidden and treacherous issailants, and it is even possible that under the
horrors of this peculiar attack some of them

The Enniscorthy rebels waited for information from their leaders that the City of Dublin had been captured, and when this information came to hand the local rebels immediately gave orders to their forces to begin
action.

of the town and also the railway station, and

BOATLOADS OF SOLDIERS.
People from the village gathered on the hill
above the Marconi station in order to see the
coming light, when a destroyer was seen
steaming at a great pace from Lambay Island.
As she drew nearer, it was seen that she was
crowded with soldiers. A rush was made by
the townsfolk to the harbour, and in a very
few minutes boatloads of military were quickly
rowed to the pier, and two hundred men of
the North Staffordshire:;, under the command
of Captain Clay, were landed and marched to
the wireless station, where they entrenched
in the ditches surrounding the station.
The
town was saved, and in the offing two gunboats patrolled, their guns being within reach
of the coast roads, by which the rebels were
expected to arrive.
On Thursday, 27th April, the Staffords dug
themselves in, put up barricades of carts and
sandbags on ail the roads loading into Skerries,
and made every preparation for a siege.
The Harristown and Ashbourne rebels were
stated to have joined the Lusk contingent,
but if this were so they must have received
news of the military force which had landed,
and of the guns of the warships trained on
the town and roads, and come to the conclusion that discretion was the better part of
valour, as the next news was that they had
returned to Dublin,
The scare was consequently at an end.
The North Staffords remained some time
in Skerries, and nearly twenty persons were
arrested and sent to .Dublin.

turned his back he heard Captain Colthurst

that he was quite incapable of leading men,
and witness suspended him from duty for a
time.

was not fit to exercise judgment. He was

He first saw
the accused on Friday last, in company with
Dt. Parsons, and listened to the conversation
which he had with Captain Colthurst.
The
accused seemed to be in a very restless,
agitated state, pacing up and down the room,
and not able to control himself. He did not

seriousness
of the
charge against him. or to have the ordinary

Roger David Casement appealed on Monday, 17th July, to five judges against his
conviction.
He sat in the dock of the Court
of Criminal Appeal, London, and listened with
much interest to the proceedings.
He was
dressed in a grey suit, but did not look quite
so smart as during his trial a few weeks ago.
To the lay mind the day was one of ntense
weariness, as nothing but ancient rolls and
Statutes in Norman French and Latin, was
read, and there was virtually nothing to relieve the monotony.
Mr. Justice Darling presided, the other
Judges being Justices Bray, A. L\ Lawrence,

The only practical purpose such an insurrection could achieve was to detain a large number of troops in the city for a time, which

1 am not aware of any earning beyond what
I saw in the streets, and on that I took very
decided views. I had a conference at the War
Office on March 20th, 1916, and at the Horse
Guards on March 23rd, in reference to the
supply of more soldiers in Dublin. The view
I put before Lord Kitchener and other military authorities was that we should have more
soldiers in the streets of Dublin. The impression I got, walking about the streets, was that
Sinn Feinism was in a certain sense in possession.
1 put that as forcibly as I could to
General Friend. I said
"Let the soldiers be seen in the streets;
march them about, and let the people see
the force they will have to contend with."
1 was told by the military authorities that
they were busy training the soldiers, and
that they could not be spared, and that, if
there was any trouble, the troops could be
transported from Liverpool, perhaps as quickly

The military were considering our proposals.

Those from Liverpool did not
come until next day. But I do not think another odd thousand soldiers on the spot at
the time, unless they had been arranged beforehand at the post offices and places of that
sort would have affected the position.
If there had been a little more success in
Dublin, do you think many would have joined
in the country?
Was there a large body of
men sitting on the fence? I don't think so,
apart from the German landing. If the Germans had really landed men and guns, 1 do

on the population would have been. But 1 do

the extension of the Pistols Act of 1903 to
Ireland, as its restrictions, though small,
would be a safeguard, some safeguard, against

th Peace Preservation Act would result in
the formation of rifle Jubs in many places. In
May, 191-4, he divw the attention of the Government to the undesirable state of things
that had arisen, which had, he considered,
imperilled the maintenance of law and order
in the country by the unrestricted arming of
the Ulster and the National Volunteer forces,
*vhich had come into existence owing to the
acute dispute over the Home Rule question.
He held the view that in Ireland the training
and drilling to the use of arms of a great
part of the male population was a new departure, which was bound in the not distant
future to profoundly

all the existing

He had furnished reports on
these matters.
For sewne years between 1906
and 191 5 the movement fluctuated a good
deal, and it seemed to have merely afforded
the usual clique of extremists a means of
ailing their sedition without apparently doing
much harm. Dublin had remained the centre
of the movement hitherto, but in 1907 it extended to certain districts of the country,
and ^he branches had increased from 30 to
74.

I think that unquestionably the

tended to discourage the officers and men of

STOLEN DYNAMITE.
Witness in the course
of further evidence
explained that the conference a.t tha Viceregal
Lodge was called in reference to dynamite
stolen at Brittas by rebels on Easter Sunday,
which the police located at Liberty Hall, 'lhe
course which he recommended to be adopted
was recommended to the Under Secretary on
March 7th, in addition to the recommendation
in February.
As regards 'he arrest of the
Sinn Ffin organisers, witness stated that he
was not in favour of it, as it was only stirring
them up and they were paid organisers. Fouc
night manoeuvres were held, and there was a
series of recruiting meetings arranged like
Armv meetings. They got a gieat deal of
recruits, probably between 300 and 400.
The witness handed in a report which was
made to him by an officer of the " G "
Division, referring to the recruiting meetings
held bv the S)nn Feiner*.
In that report it
was stated that these meetings were undesirable
and that they were causing annoyance and
uneasiness to loyal citizens.
It was also
Btated that the meetings
were having an
adverse effect upon recruiting for the Armv,
and that the Sinn Fein party were gaining
in
numbers and equipment.
That report
was dat^d 8th April, and it was sent to the
Under Secretary, and must have been seen
by the Chief Secretary and by the Lord
Lieutenant.
The Lord Lieutenant had male
a note of the document, but it did not come
back to witness until he sent for it a day
or two ago.
The Irish Volunteers in Dublin
numbered 2,225, and they had 825 rifles, the
Citizen Army 100, and they had 125 rifles;

stated that during 1913 and
the first part of 1914 he saw and watched the
progress and arming of various bodies of
Volunteers in Ireland.
On the outbreak of
the war these movements took a new turn,
and the existing volunteer organisations all
over Ireland came forward and helped the
military authorities
energetically, and large
numbers joined the ranks of the
Army.
About October, 1914, a new organisation of
Volunteers
came prominently before his
notice.
It was opposed to recruiting, and the
members were obliged, he understood, to take
an obligation that they would not enlist in
the Army.
That organisation,
popularly
called the Sinn Fein or Irish Volunteers,
fluctuated in its character and numbers, but
its members gradually increase, and arms
obtained in various ways had increased until
the military authorities thought that they
would be obliged to take action, which consisted chiefly of trial before a magistrate, deportation of organisers, and' the suppression
of
certain newspapers.

General Officer Commanding in Cork stating
that men were urgently required to guard the
railway, and it would be no use to send them
to Enniscorthy, and on no account to send
them there. Subsequently 1,100 men and 70
cavalry, with a 4.7 gun, yere sent to take
Enniscorthy.
In reply to the Chairman, witness said that 375
Sinn Feiners were arrested, and of these 319
were sent to Dublin, 52 were discharged, and
2 were taljen to hospital. The police seized
46 rifles, 66 shot-guns, 8 pistols, 6 revolvers,
1 bomb, 21^ stone of blasting powder, 667
rounds of sporting ammunition, 4,067 rounds
of rifle and revolver ammunition, and a quantity of gelignite and other explosives.

Yes.
The rifles were mostly of German pattern,

MR.
He was prosecuted for that speech, and sentenced to three months' imprisonment.
The
Sinn Feiners in the Co. Clare did not rise,
and gave no trouble, but at the time of the
rising
there
was
considerable
activity.
Organisers were moving about, and the Sinn
Feiners were evidently anticipating something.
On Easter Sunday many of the Sinn Feiners
met along the banks of the Shannon, evidently
anticipating the landing of arms from the
Kerry side of the river.
He attributed the
fact that there was no rising in Clare to the
failure to land arms from Kerry.
The Chairman What was the state of recruiting in Clare? Recruiting was very good
in the County Clare, taking
round,
it all
amongst the labouring classes and in the
towns, but there was no response from the
farming classes otherwise the recruiting was
surprisingly good.
Was the Sinn Fein movement a small one
in Clare?
Well, at first it was very small,
but it grew rapidly at the end of last year
and the beginning of this year.
We had a
record of over 400 Sinn Feiners in the county,
but of course there were a great many sympathisers who did not openly join, but showed
themselves in sympathy with the Sinn Fein
movement.
My own opinion is that if they had
had a rising in Clare we would have had a
great many more than 400 we would probably have had three times that number.

Ihe landing of arms at Howth on 26th July,

with that event he thought it would be well
to allude to a few matters that occurred previously.
First The Government allowed the
Arms Act to lapse in 1906,
and thereby
everyone in Ireland was enabled to arm. This
appeared to witness to be an extraordinary
step for any Gorernment to take, and, as

been formed in Ireland. He requested instructions before the movement became stronger.
In reply he was told to keep the matter under
observation, and to furnish further reports.
few weeks later he had to write again, saying
that more men seemed to be enrolling, and
that seme ot them were carrying hurleys. He
repeated his first request and got a similar
reply. Connolly had said that they were arming for the purpose of resisting the violence of
the police, who were, he declared, in the clock.

The
National Volunteers, Sir James declared, were the response of the Nationalists
to
the

Ulster, and the gun-running at Howth was
but a natural sequel to the gun-running at
Lame. " I do not care," he continued, " to
enter into details as to the rise and progress
of the Ulster movement.
I can only say that
those who led and encouraged it shouldered
a very heavy burden of responsibility. They

For some rr,onths before the rising, a newspaper campaign was carried on suggesting
that if an attempt were made by the Government to disarm the Irish Volunteers, it could
only arise from the deliberate intention of
Englishmen to provoke disorder and bloodshed.

had urged military action) made a statement
to the effect that he had received' that morning

At the time of the Dublin

Adjutant what he had found upon him. The
Adjutant made copies of these documents and

When we come t
deal with the cases of Mr. Dickson and Mr.
Maclntyre, it will again be seen that nothing
of consequence was found upon them, and the
absence of compromising documents in all
three cases is, in the light of a report subsequently made by Captain Bowen-Colthurst, a
fact of considerable importance.
15. Later, on the same evening, Captain
Bowen Colthurst went out of the barracks in
command of a party under orders to enter
and occupy premises at the corner of C'amdeu
street and Harrington street, occupied by Mr.
James Kelly for the purposes of his tobacco
business.
Mr. Kelly is an Alderman of the
City and a Justice of the Peace, and had recently held the office of High Sheriff of the
City. There is no question that the suspicion
entertained against Mr. Kelly's loyalty wis
due to a misunderstanding, and that Mr. Kelly
was, in fact, quite innocent of any connection
with the outbreak. Mr. Kelly's premises are
some 300 yards on the city side of Portobello
Bridge, and the route for Captain BowenColthurst's party therefore lay from the main,
gate of the barracks along the lane leading
into the Rathmines road, and then along the
Rathmines road over Portobello Bridge past

Mr. Sheehy Skeffington had been taken out in

Nothing was said as to the shooting of Coade.
23. We are satisfied that the seriousness of
the irregularity committed by Captain BowenColthurst in his treatment of Mr. Sheehy
Skeffington on this Tuesday night was not
fully realised by those under whose commands he was supposed to be acting. Whether
from the lateness of the hour or from the
strain and anxiety caused by events outside
the barracks and the apprehension of even
graver trouble, this officer was not effectively
reprimanded, and the civilians detained under
the main guard were not rendered more secure
with the result that Captain Bowen-Colthurst
was at liberty the next morning again to override or disregard the officer of the guard, and
to deal with civilian prisoners as he pleased.

that he required the three prisoners, Skeffingand Maclntyre in the yard for
the purpose of speaking to them. The yard in
question is within the guardroom block of
buildings, being reached by a short passage
from the guard room. It comprises a space
less than 40 ft. in length and some 15ft. in
width, and is surrounded by high brick walls.
28. Sergeant Aldridge had not seen Captain
Bowen-Colthurst before and was not aware of
what position he occupied in the barracks,
save that his uniform showed him to be a
captain. Owing to the sergeant having mounted
guard only an hour previously he did not
know who were the officers of the guard, and
there was consequently nothing which appeared

Captain Murphy. 1st Royal Irish Fusil'ers,
gave evidence of having, by order, with a
party of men, visited the house of Thomas
Dickson in Harrington street where he found
a black bag, which he sent by a lame soldier
to the nearest picket, which was at Alderman
Kelly's shop.
It remained there for a short
time, and' it was afterwards sent to the barracks.
Claxton, 4th Royal Irish Fusiliers, who was stationed in charge of Alderman Kelly's shop, deposed to having received
the bag and sending it alon^ to the barracks.

experienced
in
obtaining
information as to the fate of her husband.
She then described the raid made by
Captain Colthurst and a body of soldiers on
her residence at Grosvenor place, Rathmines,
n the Friday evening. They came to the
place after seven o'clock in the evening. The
first she heard of it was the sound of a volley
f firing, and then the smashing of glass.
XUi' vvaa no preliminary knotting or de-
manding of admission.
When the soldiers
entered Captain Colthurst ordered witness and
ber little boy to put up their hands.
The
little boy gave a cry, and witness put her arms
around him
She believed she said, "These
are the defenders of women and children."
The man who was in chargeshe later learned
that he was Captain Colthurst asked hei>
very insolently who were the occupants of
the house.
In the meantime parties
of
soldiers had burst into the house by the rear
and went into all the rooms. Captain Colthurst then placed witness and her child and
maid in the drawingroom, and put them under
arrest.
They were kept there for three hours
while the soldiers were ransacking the house
and taking away papers and books. The latter
included text books in German, French, Russian, and other languages.
Referring to the
German book*, one soldier made the remark,
"Apparently, sir he was in correspondence with
the Kaiser." (Laughter.) Her husband being
a journalist, and editor of the Jrixli Citizen,
had a
great
lot of papers of
all
kinds
in the house.
Alt these and other property
were taken away in a motor car. The soldiers
occupied the house for three hours, and others
guarded it all night.
She also described the
incidents of a second laid, when her maid was
taken away and detained for some days. Many
of the articles taken from her house' had not
been returned, and it was only on the 23rd
May, after endless trouble, and by the assistance of Sir Francis" Vane, that she got her husband's ring.
She had never received forma!
notice of trie death of her husband.
Every
scrap of information she had received was
gathered as the result of endless research. She
would like to have some evidence
as to
whether any medical man saw the body of her
husband immediately after his death.
The Chairman said that would be attended
to, and the Court adjourned.

During the -whole of the rebellion their labours- never ceased in what was
perhaps the hottest and most dangerous fighting zone, namely the district around Northumberland road, Haddington road, and Canal
street Bridge. These two ladies, after their
heroic labours in the fighting line were over,
also worked at Richmond Barracks Hospital,
dressing the wounds of Sinn Fein prisoners.
The useful and dangerous work that wa c
done by the members of the County of Dublin
No. 7 Detachment, Pembroke, is detailed in a
special despatch from the Commandant, Mr.
O'Connel] Fitzsimon, who writes:
