Dray Horses, Jameson Distillery, Dublin

Six dray (or draft) horses standing harnessed to carts hauling large kegs at the Jameson Distillery, Bow Street, Dublin. This is an image of some of the working horses used at the Jameson Distillery in Dublin, in about 1905. The photograph was probably taken from atop of the Capuchin Friary which fronted onto Bow Street.

Irish Drapers’ Assistants Association Flier

A flier from the Irish Drapers’ Assistants Association (IDAA) dated March 1906. The IDAA was founded by Michael O’Lehane (1873-1920), a Cork-born trade unionist. Unlike the more traditional trade unions O’Lehane was prepared to recruit women members. Out of a total effective membership of 4,000 in 1914, 1,400 IDAA members were women. It is noted in the flier that 40% of drapery employees in Dublin were female. The main objective of the IDAA was a reduction in the working hours per week. Reference is also made in the leaflet to the unhealthy working conditions endured by drapery employees and the risk particularly from tuberculosis.
