A censored edition of the 'Catholic Bulletin', Vol. VI, no. 5-6, May-June 1916. On pp 250-253 there is a blank space with the title ‘Dublin – May 1916’ over a signature, probably referring to a poem by Gobnait Ní Bhruadair which was censored. Similarly, ‘Matters of the Moment’ has also been left purposely blank (pp 261-3). An annotation in pen on the front cover reads ‘Specimens of censorship. No editorial. No notes on Matters of Moment. Part of Msgr. O’Riordan’s Sermon, p. 267’.

The article describes a confrontation with the British military during the aeridhacht. It reads ‘during the singing and performances not only were many police present but five aeroplanes appeared and for over an hour circled over the meeting, descending to the closest possible proximity to the crowd and drowning by their din the children’s music, and that flame rockets were dropped from the planes close to the crowd, one of which set light to a thatched roof …’. The article is signed ‘W.F.P.S.’ This is probably William Frederick Paul Stockley, a Sinn Féin politician. The article concludes by declaring that ‘We are not completely emancipated from party politicians and capitalist’ newspapers. And the Irish nation of the future will never be Imperialist’.
