May he Rest in Peace
Reposing at his home on (Friday, 11th April) from 12 noon until 3.30pm and in Lanigan's Funeral Home 21 Beaumont Road, Dublin 9 from 4pm until 7pm. Removal on (Saturday, 12th April) to the Church of Our Lady of Consolation Donnycarney arriving at 9.50am. Funeral after 10am Mass to Glasnevin Crematorium."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.
