Âmbito e conteúdo
An anti-Treaty publicity item titled 'The branded arm of James O’Reilly Sketched from life by C de M'. The cartoon is attributed to Constance Markievicz (1868-1927). The sketch shows an arm with the sleeve rolled up to expose branded marks. According to the printed statement on the accompanying page, Stephen Gorman aka James O’Reilly of Ballyblia, Ardee, County Louth, was arrested on 11 September 1922 while travelling on a weekend visit to Drogheda. He was arrested on suspicion that he had taken part in a republican demonstration in Ardee. He was then branded.
