Kathleen Clarke’s copy (widow of Tom Clarke, who features extensively in the later letters), with her dairy account from Hughes Bros.laid in. Kathleen Clarke was a daughter of the old Limerick Fenian John Daly. She married Tom Clarke in 1899 after his release following 15 years imprisonment in England. Clarke asked her not to take part in the Rising, charging her instead with responsibility for the welfare of relatives of those who would be killed or imprisoned. The week after the Rising, she set up Irish National Aid and Victim Support, fending of various Redmondites who ofered to assist her. A year later she hired Michael Collins as an assistant, giving him a platform from which he reorganised the Volunteers. She later joined Fianna Fail and was elected to the Dail, but left the party over the execution of Republicans. She was elected Lord Mayor of Dublin in 1939, the frst woman to hold the position. When it appeared that Margaret Mary Pearse might have an interest in the position, it was suggested that Mrs. Clarke might stand aside. Her response was, ‘Tom Clarke’s widow stands aside for nobody!’ John Devoy was head of the I.R.B.’s American wing Clan na Gael and provided the fnancial support which kept the Irish organisation alive from the 1870s all the way to the Easter Rising. His post bag tells the inside story of ffty years of struggle, persevering through many setbacks to the establishment of an independent Irish state. €180 - 220

520 A Dark Day in GAA & Irish History ‘Bloody Sunday’ Ticket An original Admission Ticket to Croke Park, Great Challenge Match (Football), Tipperary v. Dublin, Sunday November 21,1920. Pink card, 3 ins x 4 ¼ ins, vertical fold mark with slight tear, number written rear in ms. It was at this match that British soldiers opened fre on the pitch and crowd, killing a player and twelve spectators. This followed Michael Collins’ operation against British secret service agents earlier that morning, in which fourteen British ofcers were shot dead. (1) The period 1918 - 1920 was a turbulent and dangerous period in Irish History. Martial Law was enforced in many areas, and the activities of the G.A.A. and other Sporting Organisations were severely curtailed. The behaviour of the British Forces in Ireland forced many young men to join the Irish Volunteers, and other Republican Organizations despite having no background in the movement. Especially in Tipperary, many young men of the time, and particularly those involved in Gaelic Games joined in the struggle for Irish Independence. With such exciting events as the Rescue of Sean Hogan at Knocklong Railway Station in May 1919, several of the country’s leading Footballers became involved in the War of Independence. By early March 1920 the number of Gaelic Games played almost came to a standstill. This trend continued into the early summer when normally the volume of activity should have been increasing. In Agents, “The Cairo Gang,” in an operation organized by Michael Collins. October there came a sudden and brief revival of Inter-County Fixtures.

A people and wounding about sixty, “On the feld Michael Hogan, one of match was arranged for 2.45 p.m. on Sunday November 21st, again at the Tipperary backs (and one of only two Irish Volunteer Ofcers on the Croke Park. The game was well organised, and advertised as The G.A.A. Tipperary Team) lay mortally wounded, while within seconds a dozen Challenge Match. It was intended that the money raised from the match spectators were dead or dying, many more seriously wounded.” This was would help the Association for the Dependents of the I.R.A. who had been Bloody Sunday. killed or imprisoned. Nothing more strikingly illustrates the close connections between the The events which occurred at that game, now known as “Bloody Sunday,” G.A.A. and the Republican Movement between 1916 and 1922, than followed the early morning assassination of eleven British Intelligence “Bloody Sunday.” (1) €2000 - 3000

He progressed to become a full member of the Tipperary County Team along with his club mate Ned Egan. They were narrowly defeated by Kerry in the Munster semi-fnal of 1919, a match that took place on at all costs, but one who would have surely won more honours from his May 25th, less than a fortnight after the Knocklong Rescue of Sean Hogan sporting prowess except for the turbulent times that existed when he was by Sean Treacy, Dan Breen and others, in which two policemen were killed. in his prime. Nevertheless, he will forever be remembered with pride in his After this incident, South Tipperary became an armed camp and all G.A.A. native village. and other Sporting Activities ceased.

917 The Masterpiece of Modernism

Joyce (James) Ulysses, 4to Paris (Shakespeare & Co.) 1922, First Edn., No. 285 of 750 copies on handmade paper, original blue paper wrappers bound in, (lacks spine), uncut, blue cloth, gilt lettered spine, internally clean. [Slocum and Cahoon A17] (1) THE EARLIEST ISSUE OF ARGUABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT AND INFLUENTIAL NOVEL OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY. The total edition was limited to 1,000 copies of which 100 were numbered and signed on Dutch handmade paper, 150 numbered and printed on vergé d’Arches and the remaining 750 were numbered. The ofcial date of publication for Ulysses was Joyce’s birthday, 2 February 1922, but difculties with the cover meant that in fact only two copies, both from the 1/750 issue, were actually ready that day. No further copies of any issue of Ulysses appeared from Darantière until 9 February (when a further batch of the 1/750 arrived), followed by the frst copies of the 1/100 on 13 February, and the 1/50 series on 4 March. It is now thought that this refects the order in which Ulysses was actually printed. This copy is recorded in Sylvia Beach’s Ulysses notebook for Irish Bookshops, subscribing on February 11th (see Glenn Horowitz Bookseller, James Joyce - Books & Manuscripts, New York, 1996, p. 123).

919 Only Separate Publication Joyce (James) A Protest against Plagiarism. An original printed copy of the protest and appeal issued in French by a constellation of American and European literary and cultural fgures, on Joyce’s birthday 2 February 1927, over the unauthorized publication of sections of Joyce’s Ulysses by the American publisher Samuel Roth in his Two Worlds Monthly magazine, without permission or royalty and in ‘un texte incomplete’. First and only separate publication, a fne copy, 1 pp folio, with one fold mark, in a custom made folder. Issued over the names of some 167 notable people, the protest was instigated by Joyce and was drawn up by legal friends of his (see Ellmann, 1983, 585-7). It is thus a Joyce item, although he himself did not sign. It complains about the breach of Joyce’s rights as author, and invites editors and others to withhold support and publicity from Roth and his enterprises. It was later published in Transition 1 (Paris, April 1927). The signatures, in alphabetical order, include virtually everyone you ever heard of, from Albert Einstein to H.G. Wells, W.B. Yeats, Virginia Woolf, Paul Valery, Bertrand Russell, Marcel Prevost, Sean O’Casey, Liam O’Flaherty, E. Oe. Somerville, Italo Svevo, Thomas Mann, Ernest Hemingway, Alice S. Green, Andre Gide, Augusta Gregory, Benedetto Croce, John Galsworthy, Robert Bridges, Arnold Bennett, Knut Hamsun, Wyndham Lewis, Gabriel Miro, Bunin, Luigi Pirandello, T.S.Eliot. The extraordinary range and quality of the signatories testifes to Joyce’s worldwide reputation and infuence, fve years after publishing Ulysses. banned from import to the United States, hence Joyce could not Joyce eventually secured a legal judgement restraining Roth’s activities, establish his copyright in the usual way.

1011 Fulfllment of Pearse’s Dream Signed Twice by Pearse Pearse, P.H. Sgoil Eanna Limited The original Prospectus and Memorandum of Association, dated 1912, setting out the school’s objects and its capital structure, with the names, addresses and descriptions of seven subscribers - Alec Wilson of Belfast, J.P., Co. Down; Joseph T. Dolan, merchant of Ardee; Patrick H. Pearse, St. Enda’s College, Rathfarnham, Barrister-at-Law; Michael Smithwick, Barrister-at-Law, Dublin; Stephen J. Barrett, Dublin, Treasurer, Gaelic League; Patrick Doody, Teacher at St. Enda’s; and Eamonn O’Toole, also a teacher at St. Enda’s. Each of the seven held one share, the company having a capital of £8,000 in shares of £1 each. The Directors are named as Pearse, Dolan, Wilson, Smithwick and Barrett (but not the two teachers); the Secretary pro tem is [the accountant] Donal O’Connor, 13 Westmoreland St., Dublin. The Prospectus includes detailed statements of the cost of acquiring the premises,initial expenditures,cash subscribed, arrangements concerning [its sister school] St. Ita’s, salary due to Mr. Pearse, and anticipated revenue and costs, showing a small surplus. It also includes the membership of an Educational Council including Seamus MacManus, Edward Martyn and Shane Leslie. Accompanying this folio is a summary document, Memorandum and Articles of Association of Sgoil Eanna, the Memorandum with the original signatures of fve subscribers - Smithwick, Wilson, Pearse, Barrett and Dolan -- and the Articles of Association also signed by the fve subscribers including Pearse. Each of these two pages is also signed at foot by Patk MacKenna, Shop Assistant, Ardee, as witness. St. Enda’s was founded in 1908 in Cullenswood House, Ranelagh. The present documents were drawn up after its move to larger premises at Rathfarnham in 1910. It must have been a proud day for Pearse when he signed these documents, giving legal status to his plans and dreams for a new kind of Irish education at St. Enda’s. Of course there was never any surplus; the school never paid its costs, and Pearse spent much of his time in the ensuing years trying to keep it afoat by various expedients. Nevertheless it remains an important experiment, and an unforgettable experience for many of those who took part. The school remained open until 1935, with State support, and the house and grounds are now a museum and public park. These founding documents are of the frst importance for the history of Irish education. Both documents a little bumped at corners, but generally very good. €3000 - 5000

(1) Joseph Plunkett was a son of George Noble Plunkett, an antiquarian and fne art connoisseur, Director of the National Museum 1907-16 and prominent in other learned societies. Joseph was a poet and a friend of Thomas MacDonagh, and became editor of the Irish Review, and although he was seriously ill with TB (then an incurable disease), he became Director of Operations for the Irish Volunteers and a member of the I R B’s Military Council. It is said that he drafted the plan for the Dublin rising. He was one of the seven signatories of the Provisional Government’s Proclamation of Independence. He left a convalescent home to serve in the GPO through the Rising, where his aide-de-camp was Michael Collins, and afterwards was court-martialled and sentenced to death. Shortly before his execution,he married his sweetheart Grace Giford in Kilmainham Jail. As well as his poetry, he painted as a recreation, including some landscapes of Mayo and Donegal scenes, where he went to learn Irish. A watercolour was sold at Adams in April 2016; this is the frst oil painting we have seen. Although the provenance is obscure, there is in our view no doubt about the signature and inscription. There is a St. Bartholomew’s Well (Tobar Pharthaláin) near Bantry, Co. Cork; there may be others. €1000 - 1500

As a periodical, w.a.f. * There appears to be no record of a complete run of this publication, but it certainly did not continue beyond De Valera’s ‘dump arms’ order of May 24th at the very latest; probably it ended somewhere in the early 180’s. The bulletin began with the attack on Republican forces in the Four Courts, as a way of conveying urgent news of the changing situation to journalists, Republican supporters and the general public, and was issued in broadside format to facilitate pasting on walls. It was edited mainly by Erskine Childers until his arrest (November 1922), later by Frank Gallagher and others. While written from the point of view of the Republicans or Irregular forces, it continued the tradition of accurate journalism established by the earlier ‘Irish Bulletin.’ It is by far the most important source for the day-to-day conduct of the Civil War, containing a great amount of material not found anywhere else (since the daily papers published little or nothing originating from the Republican side). There are many poignant issues, such as these recording the deaths of Michael Collins, Erskine Childers and very many others. A superb collection of serious historical importance, preserved in fve plastic folders. €5000 - 7000

1105 Important Archive of 19th Century Kilkenny Deeds An Archive of Documents relating to families and land holdings in County Kilkenny, comprising leases, wills, marriage settlements, legal correspondence and other papers. Mainly 19th century, but a few of the 18th Century (1718 and 1769) and some of the early 20th Century. Many of the papers relate to the family of Hutchinson and to lands at Boolyshea (which they bought from Robert Garrett in 1718), Kiltorcan and Derrynahinch (acquired by fee farm grant) and Jerpoint Church (acquired in 1801 by marriage between Richard Hutchinson and Mary, daughter of Edward Hunt). In a curious deed made of 1801 soon after his marriage, Richard Hutchinson grants to Anastatia and Mary Walsh of Derrynahinch an annuity of £20 on condition that they continue to clothe, maintain, educate, support and keep Mary, Judith, John, Abigail and Thomas Hutchinson otherwise Walsh, “reputed children of said Richard”. Through a series of very detailed marriage settlements, it is possible to follow the genealogical details 1111 of later Hutchinsons and the families with whom they intermarried, and their fnancial and land Mill (John Stuart) On Liberty, 8vo Lond.

1135 Of the Utmost Rarity with Swift Association Harward (Michael) Philomath. A New Almanack for the Year of Our Lord, 1666, 12mo Dublin (Printed by John Crook) 1666. First & Sole Edn. red & bl. title, within wd.-cut decorated border. Interleaved copy, with approx. 40pp. of cont. m/ ss notes. In later full calf, upr. cover with “J. Swift” blocked in gilt, and date 1666 in gilt on spine. As an Association Copy, w.a.f. (1) A unique piece of 17th Century Dublin Printing, with an amazing history of an association to Jonathan Swift. In the 1680s and 1690s, the owner of this small Dublin-printed almanac of 1666 transcribed into it the texts of nearly twenty poems of the period, several with Dublin connections. Thus the earliest known miscellany of Dublin poems is found inside a unique survival of early Dublin printing. Very few early Irish almanacs survive; they were small, light books, heavily used by their purchasers since they contained not only astrological data and prognostications but also specifc local information on tides, fairs, eclipses and festivals. No seventeenth- century Irish-printed almanac has been ofered for sale in living memory and only one other almanac from this period is known to exist. This copy is of double interest since it contains, in manuscript, late seventeenth-century poems of Dublin origin. Some of these poems are unknown and unedited. For many years, it was asserted that the poems were in the hand of Swift, but it is now clear that this is not the case and, though the spine bears the words ‘1666. J.SWIFT’, none of the poems are by him. However, they are of considerable interest and shed new light on Dublin life at a time when Swift was living in the city. The book is of extreme historical and cultural signifcance. We are most graeful to Prof. Andrew Carpetner, M.A.Ph.I., MRIA, FEA, Emeritus Professor of English UCD for his help in cataloguing this lot, and for his Preliminary Analysis of the above volume, which is available on request. The above Volume is in fragile condition and it will not be available for general viewing. €6000 - 9000
