You will be soon about to find out more about Edith and her life and work as an intelligence officer. Hopefully finishing manuscript @TyroneGuthrie later this month. I wish I knew what I know now when I interviewed her in the 1990s! Copy of this picture in @OPWKilmainham.
Ita O'Gorman played a very important role in the intelligence war. Ita befriended an Auxiliary & became so friendly that she kept a photo of him on a motorbike & was invited to his home in England. O'Gorman was really gathering intel which she passed to the IRA.

One from the Vault! Dad has quite a collection of pristine Irish Labour Party & ITGWU/SIPTU pamphlets from the 1960s-2000s. I was really taken by the snazzy cover of this 1972 reprint.

This day 118 years ago – 7 July 1903 – Cork-born union organiser Mary Harris Jones, better known as Mother Jones, began the March of the Mill Children from Kensington, Pennsylvania to Oyster Bay, New York.
The march was spurred by the child labour breaches she had witnessed.
