Description

[post-July 1922] Printed flyer 'To the Free State Soldiers'. Entreating arguments for leaving Free State employ, censuring individual members of government – 'they are liars, trying with filthy libels to anger you against your brothers that you may kill more readily?' Particularly referring to the fighting at the Four Courts: 'you are fighting and dying for a partitioned Irish State subject to England...Be true at least to yourselves, lads, and know that you are fighting and dying for the British Empire and for nothing else.'
