Collins still was in his thirties. Last.
May 1t was announced that Miss Kitty
leading families in Longford, was en-
gagged to marry him.
Little is known of the early life OF
Collins, except that he Is said to have
been born Of hun ole parents in County
Kerry. He was educated m the ma
tional school and after working with
a brother in the grocery business en-
tered the postal service. At one' time
he was employed in the London post
office. ~
He sprang into prominence in Oc-
tober. 1914, in connection with the
! F.efn movement. In 1916 he COM
manded q section of the rebel army
in Ireland Of which Patrick H. Peace,
who later was executed, was com
mander-in-chief. It was charged In
a government paper. that IA priest
named Michael Collins'' accompanied
by Sir Roger Easement, who later was
executed for treason for connection
with the Sim Fen plot with Germany,
on a mission to Germany to visit Irish
prisoners Of war.
Although a member Of the imperial
parliament, Collins never sat IN West
minister. During the troublesome times
between the Sim Fetners and THE
British forces Collins was said to have
made his headquarters In Dublin, al
though he was prepared to move
hither n thither az the shortest no
tice. The Royal irish .constabulary
and the Black and Tans and the
auxiliaries frequently raided premises
where Collins was supposed to be, but
he always managed to elude them. His
holdness was a hy-word for all Irish
men.
Collins is said to have gained his
knowledge Of finance which brought
him the portfolio Of minister Of A.
nance in the Dali Eireann cabinet
through his rtaining in the London
office Of the Guaranty Trust company.

sional government, and first in COM
mand of the Free State army, was
struck down from ambush last night
at Bandon, County Cork.
Everywhere in the Irish capital
there was expressions Of profound
grief and amazement that such a
tragic and untimely end could have
come to the military genius Of the
new regime. He had barely reached
the prime Of life. being only 81 years
old.
The tragedy was all the more
shocking coming so 0 o after the

was considered Collins intellectual

Bath State Ferry on Saturday nights,
the petitions were referred to the
Highway Commission. who under
the law are charged with the oper-
alton Of the ferry.
The Highway Commission imme-
diately agreed to grant the service
asked for, but upon looking into the
details it. was ascertained that to
perform the service as petitioned for
would entail the necessity OF en-
ploying another crew, on account OF
Federal regulations and licenses
which prohibit the crew from work
ing more than Is hours out of. any
"A. It was ascertained, however,
that If one extra trip could be run
leaving Woolwich at 6.15 and the
other trip run leaving Bath at 1915,
there would be no violation Of the
stipulations in the Federal licenses.
The matter was taken up by the
Public Utilities Commission with
several Of the petitioners. who
agreed that service as per the above
schedule would be satisfactory. The
