File No s.2847. Form B.S.M.2 STATENT BY Mr. MICHAEI CONWAY, Curraghmore, Ballycullane, County Wexford. I joined the Ballycullane Company of the Irish Volunteers in 1917. There were between 25 and 30 men in the Company. John Timmins, who died a few years ago, was Company Captain. Meetings of the Company were held in secret twice weekly. The training included foot drill, arms drill, instruction in the use of and held field arms, occasionally we exercises. The members of the Company were actively engaged daring the l9lg General Election on behalf of the Slim Féin candidate. We attended public meetings, canvassed electors and on polling day acted as tally clerks, and helped to transport the voters to the polling stations. The first activity of a military nature was the collecting of fire-arms, principally shot guns, from the farmers. This operation was carried out in the Company area in one night. We just: got it done in good time as the R.I.C. were on the same job two days afterwards, but they were too late as we had collected all the available arms. The next order I got was to collect boxes of old cart-wheels and old water-piping of about two inches in diameter for the purpose of making bombs with which to attack R.I.C.

I have been asked to write a history of the organisation, officer personnel, etc., of above brigade from before 1916 to July 11th, 1921, and as far as the contacts I have made and from my own memory, I will try to do same, but as I was not a member during the 1916 period and held no battalion rank until 1921, I am at a disadvantage inasmuch as I have to rely on what other officers tell me. As far as I know, there were only two companies of the Irish Volunteers in South Wexford during the 1916 Rising. There was one in Wexford town, and another in New Boss town. Attached to the Wexford town company was a section from the rural areas of Bridgetown and Rathangan, and the New Ross company had a section, or sections, in the rural areas of Ballywilliam, Templeudigan and Rathgarogue. Both companies there are some officers who hold that Wexford town area was a battalion mobilised for the Rising, and stood to for portion of the week when, I am informed, Captain O'Connell (Ginger) of G.H.Q.
