Cumann na mBan Irish Civil War: Cumann na mBan, North Dublin Union, A detailed 4 pp manuscript Report by the Prisoners' Council, pencil and ink on two scraps of rough notepaper, dated 3rd October 1923, complaining about the condition of the North Dublin Union when the prisoners were first moved there, of the "terrorism and ill treatment" of prisoners following the escape attempt of 6th May "The Army came in to effect the count, the prisoners refused, and many of them were pulled, kicked and beaten down a stone stairs by the soldiers and police," also complaints about a search of the prisoners' cells on August 26th and the Catholic Church's refusal to grant absolution to the majority of the prisoners on "political grounds" and giving a general account of the prison regime. Some creasing, otherwise good condition, rare and interesting. (1) * The search of prisoners' cells on 26th August followed a raid on the Suffolk Street headquarters of Sinn Fein, during which uncensored correspondence smuggled out of the North Dublin Union had been discovered. The Catholic Church did not refuse to grant absolution to the female prisoners on political grounds, but because they were engaged in huger strikes that could have resulted in self inflicted death (a mortal sin) This document was smuggled out of the North Dublin Union to the Intelligence Section of the anti treaty forces for use as anti government propaganda in "Poblach na hEireann Irish War News". As a m/ss. Ex. Rare.
