Members from four different Battalions of the Dublin Brigade, laying wreaths on the graves of McKee, Clancy and Clune

Gaffney Fisher and Twohig were captured in the park, Im assumimg Peter was with them hence them being shot the same day.The first executions under the Public Safety Bill take place. In Kilmainham Jail, four Anti-Treaty Volunteers are executed for possession of revolvers. (Hopkinson says five.) They are Peter Cassidy (7 Usher St., Dublin); I’m actually supprised at the battalions they are in as their addresses are all in the 4th Battalions area. No wonder I couldnt find them on the 4ths Roll of Honour list. If I find anything else I’ll send it on. Good luck with your research.
