Republican Leaders in Cork
Republican Autographs A very good Autograph Book, mostly containing conventional messages to a young person dated circa 1907, but with a double page about half way through containing a fine selection of Republican autographs, many of them signed in Youghal in June 1922, including G.N. Count Plunkett (undated); Eóin Mac Néill Q207, Eochaill [Youghal] 23.ix.1917; Éamon de Valéra, Eochaill 12-vi-1922; Aibhistín de Staic; Pádraig Ó Caoimh, 12adh Meitheamh 1922; H[arry] Boland 12/6/22; Dómhnall Ó Ceallacháin, Corcaigh, 12.6.’22; Seán McHales III Cork Brigade I.R.A. (also earlier signature of William O'Brien).
Harry Boland died about six weeks later, in early August 1922. This may be one of his last signatures.
