| Description: | Funerals; Ireland; revolution DS (but fairly close in) funeral procession moving slowly through large crowd. Notes say "Funeral for victims of gun running." - don't know if this means the gun runners themselves or someone else. Gun runners could be either the Ulster Volunteers (Loyalist) or The Irish Volunteers (who later became the Irish Republican Army); most likely the latter. Were caught bringing German guns to Ireland in small boats. Home Rule; colonialism; terrorism; smuggling. | |
