large banner put up on
liberty hall which says :
We Serve Neither King
Nor Kaiser But Ireland.

James Connolly
ordered a German ship
to come with arms.
The captain of the ship
scuttled the ship
because he was afraid
the English army to
catch him

Their leader Thomas
Clarke and Seán
McDermott planned a
rebellion for Easter
