Description | Notice to Irish Munsters from Germans, 1916 |
Details |
A placard placed by the Germans above their trenches facing the Munsters after the Irish uprising of April 1916, claiming, 'English guns are firing at your wife and children'. The Munsters reply, the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News is proud to report, was to riddle the notice with bullets and then take it during a night-time raid and bring it back to London.
