You wouldn't see it in the pictures!....

Raids in Carlow.

The military arrived at the Carlow Cinema Palace on Thursday night, towards the close of the performance , and searched every member of the male portion of the audience, the women and children being allowed to go home.

No arrests were made.

On the same night the County Council offices were also visited, and the premises of the Carlow Wood Workers on Friday morning.

[Note added 2010. Carlow Wood Workers was Prendergasts in Cox's Lane.]

Warning!

Nationalist, May 1921.

Death Warning.

On Saturday evening last two masked and armed men called at the residence of Mr. W.P. Morrow, at Newtown , Co. Carlow, Master, Carlow Union, (The Workhouse ), and delivered a notice to Mr. Morrow's young daughter to the effect that unless he ceased his activities in local land agitation, he would be shot.

The note was signed "Anti-Sinn Fein" and below was the legend "God Save the King".

[Note added 2010. not sure why but my 2010 hunch is that the above message was left by members of the I.R.A. stirring it up!]
