THE IRISH VOLUNTEERS IN LIMERICK AND CLARE
In 1911 I joined the Limerick Branch of the Fianna which at
that time was run by Joe Dalton, proprietor of the City Printing
Works. The Fianna were closely associated with the Wolfe Tone
Club, which I later discovered was only a cover for an IRB
Circle. As far as I can remember, the principal members of the
Wolfe Tone Club at this time were Jim Ledden (later TD for
Limerick), George Clancy (murdered by Black and Tans while
Mayor of Limerick), John and Paddy Sweeney, Paddy Whelan,
Dinny Curtin (of Cork), Fonse Kivlehan, . . . Grant, Jim
McInerney, Fonse Blake, Fonse O'Halloran, Liam O'Sullivan,
Jim Gubbins, Ned Fitzgibbon, . . . O'Donnell, R.P. O'Connor,
Dan Burke (later TD), Tom Hayes.
We met in the Fianna Fail Hall, a wooden Hall built on a site
given by John Daly, at the back of his house in Barrington
Street. Normally, when the Fianna went on its Sunday route
march out the country, most of the members of the Wolfe
Tone Club accompanied them . . .
