  • Pte John Doyle C Coy 62 Res Inf Bn

    It is with a heavy heart I have to inform you of the Sudden Death of Pte John Doyle (RDF), 'C' Coy, 62 Res Inf Bn. Son of the deceased Sgt John (Horse) Doyle (PDF).

    Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam
    "Fellow-soldiers of the Irish Republican Army, I have just received a communication from Commandant Pearse calling on us to surrender and you will agree with me that this is the hardest task we have been called upon to perform during this eventful week, but we came into this fight for Irish Independence in obedience to the commands of our higher officers and now in obedience to their wishes we must surrender. I know you would, like myself, prefer to be with our comrades who have already fallen in the fight - we, too, should rather die in this glorious struggle than submit to the enemy." Volunteer Captain Patrick Holahan to 58 of his men at North Brunswick Street, the last group of the Four Courts Garrison to surrender, Sunday 30 April 1916.

          I knew Horse very well

          that indeed is sad news-

          Condolonces to his family and to his comrades.
          Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
          Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
          The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
          The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
          The best lack all conviction, while the worst
          Are full of passionate intensity.

                  Rest in Peace.

                  In another piece of sad news a 19 year old reservist in Kilkenny took his own life yesterday afternoon.
                  The tragedy took place in his home.

                  Condolences to family and friends.
