§ 61. Mr. GALBRAITHasked the Chief Secretary whether two men named Frank Shouldice and John O'Grady were sentenced at Athlone to imprisonment with hard labour for two years and one year, respectively; whether their offence was the printing of a poster in connection with the refusal of Irish railwaymen last summer to carry munitions of war and asking for funds to help to support the dismissed men; and whether similar posters and advertisements were at the time displayed openly throughout Ireland and the fund openly collected without interference by the police?
§ Mr. HENRYThe answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. With regard to the second part, Shouldice and O'Grady were also charged with printing forms of summonses for use in connection with the so-called Republican Courts. In the circumstances the remainder of the question does not arise.
