Republican Courts

A letter and notes from Conor A. Maguire re his article titled ‘Republican Courts’ in 'The Capuchin Annual' (1969). Maguire provides some additional detail in relation to the photographic of the Republican Court sitting in Westport in 1920 (p. 383). The note reads: ‘I recognise John Kelly, later County Registrar, and J.C. Garvey, Solicitor, Castlebar, from whom I received the photograph after the Truce. He told me that he had arranged to have it taken and had kept it hidden behind the shutters in his office. Noticeable at the back are two of the IRA Police, easily identifiable, as they stand at attention with their caps on. One, I understand, was Seán Gibbons’
