3 October Free State offers amnesty to Anti-Treaty fighters who surrender
their arms and recognize the government. The oiffer was met with little response. President W.T. Cosgrave told the Dail..

"Although I have always objected to the death penalty, there is no other way that I know of in which ordered conditions can be restored in this country, or any security obtained for our troops, or to give our troops any confidence in us as a government"

7 October President Cosgrave’s uncle is shot dead while his public house was robbed.

7 October Charlie Dalton a National Army intelligence officer, arrests three boys ages 16-17, neighbors of his, putting up Republican posters in Drumcondra, Dublin.
