A flier with the text of a ballad celebrating ‘The Smith of Ballinalee by ‘“Sean”, East Limerick’. Seán Mac Eoin's exploits as commander of the IRA's north Longford flying column, which carried out successful attacks on British forces at Ballinalee (November 1920) and Clonfin, near Granard (February 1921), earned him the sobriquet ‘the Blacksmith of Ballinalee’.
