  • The Main Sites of Activity During the Rising. St Stephen's Green and The
    7.0 The Main Sites of Activity During the Rising. 7.9 St Stephen’s Green and the Royal College of Surgeons Commandant Michael Mallin and his second in command, Countess Markievicz, were assigned to St Stephen’s Green, a rectangular park, approximately twenty acres in size located a mile south of the General Post Office and close to Jacob’s. The current membership of the Irish Citizen Army was approximately 400; it is estimated that 200-250 turned out during the Rising, most of them serving with Mallin in the St Stephen’s Green area, the main exceptions being those with Seán Connolly at City Hall. Mallin proceeded to fortify his position, posting men in some of the houses overlooking the Green and setting men to work digging trenches to cover the entrances. He dispatched parties to take over Harcourt Street railway station, J. & T. Davy’s public house at the junction of South Richmond Street and Charlemont Mall, and houses at Leeson Street bridge. It soon transpired that St Stephen’s Green was a vulnerable position, as it was overlooked by the Shelbourne Hotel and some other tall buildings that had not been occupied by Mallin’s forces. Mallin had military experience, having served for fourteen years in the British army, part of the time as a non- commissioned officer (NCO). Presumably, when St Stephen’s Green was originally selected as a position it was expected that there would be enough men to occupy the Shelbourne Hotel and all the other tall buildings, but that was not the case.

Focused primarily on a set of strategic locations in the heart of Dublin, it was directed by the Irish Republican Brotherhood (IRB) and carried out by a militant force of no more than 1,600 men and women. The Rising began when rebels seized several buildings in Dublin city-centre, including the General Post Office (GPO), from where Patrick Pearse later that day proclaimed the establishment of the Irish Republic.

  • Easter Rising of 1916 Chairs: Abby Nicholson ’19 and Lex Keegan Jiganti ’19 Rapporteur: Samantha Davidson ’19
    Historical Crisis: Easter Rising of 1916 Chairs: Abby Nicholson ’19 and Lex Keegan Jiganti ’19 Rapporteur: Samantha Davidson ’19 CAMUN 2018: Easter Rising of 1916 Page 1 of 6 Dear Delegates, Welcome to CAMUN 2018! Our names are Abby Nicholson and Lex Keegan Jiganti and we are very excited to be chairing this committee. We are both juniors at Concord Academy and have done Model UN since our freshman year. After much debate over which topic we should discuss, we decided to run a historical crisis committee based on the Easter Rising of 1916. While not a commonly known historical event, the Easter Rising of 1916 was a significant turning point in the relations between Ireland and Great Britain. With recent issues such as Brexit and the Scottish Referendum, it is more crucial than ever to examine the effects of British imperialism and we hope that this committee will offer a lens with which to do so. The committee will start on September 5th, 1914, as this was when the Irish Republican Brotherhood first met to discuss planning an uprising before the war ended. While the outcome of the Rising is detailed in this background guide, we are intentionally beginning debate two years prior in order to encourage more creative and effective plans and solutions than what the rebels actually accomplished. This is a crisis committee, meaning that delegates will be working to pass directives and working with spontaneous events as they unfold as opposed to simply writing resolutions. We hope this background guide provides an adequate summary of the event, but we encourage further research on both the topic and each delegate’s assigned person.

  • The Rebel Countess of Ireland Constance Marcievicz
    The Canada Times … inspiring students to discover history The Rebel Countess of Ireland Constance Marcievicz March 2016 JEANIE JOHNSTON EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem The Rebel Countess of Ireland Constance Marcievicz Alan Hustak he was an Anglo-Irish blue blood, a Protestant with a Polish name – an unlikely heroine of the Irish Rebellion. Known to history as the “rebel countess,” Constance Georgine Marcievicz often described herself as “a rebel, unconverted and unconvertibleS pledged to the one thing – a free and independent Republic.” A century ago, she was sentenced to death by firing squad for her part in the 1916 Easter Uprising. At the time she was second in command of the Irish Citizen Army at St. Steven’s Green under Michael Mallin. When the uprising erupted, armed with a Mauser and an automatic rifle and with a cartridge belt slung around her waist, she was spoiling for a fight. Preparations for the rising were being made by the Irish Republican Brotherhood in Kerry. British detectives caught wind of it and according to one account warned the countess to stay away from Kerry. She was indignant. “What will happen to me if I refuse the order? Will you shoot me?” she asked. “Ah, madam, who would want to shoot you? You wouldn’t want to shoot one of us, would you?” “But I would! I’m quite prepared to shoot and be shot at.” True to her word, on Easter Monday 1916 she led her men through the gas-lit streets of Dublin and during the weeklong skirmish she is thought to have killed at least one British soldier.

  • GLASNEVIN CEMETERY BEING a RECORD of IRELAND's Hcflqms DEAD in DUBLIN CITY and COUNTY ALSO V LACES of HISTORIC INTEREST
    THE GLASNEVIN CEMETERY BEING A RECORD OF IRELAND'S HcflQMS DEAD IN DUBLIN CITY AND COUNTY ALSO V LACES OF HISTORIC INTEREST PRICE b|? NATIONAL GRAVES ASSOCIATION, 41 PARNELL SQUARE. FOREWORD The National Graves Association deserves praise and congratulations for its effort in making available this permanent record of Patriot Graves in and around Dub­ lin, and of the places where many met their deaths in the struggle for national liberty. It is to be hoped that this initial effort is the first instalment of what will be a permanent All-Ireland record. The work deserves the fullest support of all who wish the sacrifices made to be properly recorded, ‘ and it is certain to receive due recognition, not only in Ireland, but amongst our people abroad. I would appeal especially to Eepublicans to give this project their active support. While we profess a reverence for the names and memories of our heroes and martyrs, we sometimes fall short in giving positive evidence of this feeling, as is shown by neglect of many of their resting-places, or of the spots where they met their deaths at the hands of the enemy. Many of the graves of our National Dead are unmarked; some are only vaguely known, while others are entirely unknown. The graves of the soldiers of the Eepublic of Ireland, who gave their lives in recent times, are sometimes untended. Such neglect is contrary to the general belief which credits us with great reverence for our dead. This is a lapse from duty which the National Graves Association is seeking to have remedied.
