They Died in V0in

About FIVE hundred died in vain in
the rebellion in Ireland. The dead were
found beneath RACED walls of blackened
buildings, in the streets and in Sc
sluded places where they fell. Also
some of the leaders have met
their doom at the hands of justice. Ii
is a strange irony of fate that some
should perish in Liberty Hall, although
freedom from England was not for
them. Many times in the world have
men given their lives for an idea and
no doubt many times more will this
occur. But the time is not ripe, if ever,
for Ireland to become a republic. The
hour may come, bat for the present
the window is darkened.
