I was taken by rail to Limerick where I was detained for two months. I have already related how I met, as one of the military officers in charge of me, Lord French’s driver whom we had wounded at Ashtown.

From Limerick I was taken to Mountjoy, and because of my treatment there I went on hunger-strike. After twelve days of hunger-strike and six of thirst strike, I was released.

During my imprisonment the people of Tipperary had elected me as their senior Republican Deputy.
