cure the death of the sole remaining
outstanding figure in that government
and thereby weaken the free state
movement, and second, as a measure
of reprisal against the shooting of
Harry j. Boland by free state soldiers.
On the walls of Trinity College and
other public buildings is the inscrip-
ton in white paint: Harry Boland
murdered" while handbills pasted on
telegraph poles by Irregulars assert
that Boland was shot by free state
troops when he was unarmed after
having been removed from his bed. The
provisional government asserts that
Boland was trying to escape when
shot down.
Boland was a popular figure, and
Irishmen who dared talk at all about
the general political situation, voiced
the fear that Boland's death would
lead to assassinations. Nightly fusit
liades and mobs have reduced the
Dublin population to State of ter
rerism.
Michael Collins, as head of the Irish
republican army, was, for several

with the highest price on his head
that had ever been offered as reward
for the capture or death of an Irish
republican. Collins, for months, dared
mot remain in the same house two
nights.
