100 Years Ago This Week In The Irish Civil War

21 February Anti-Treaty IRA attacks income tax offices in Dublin. Attempts are also made to burn Jury’s Hotel, but without success. Tax offices are destroyed at Nassau St., Gardiner St. and Beresford Place. A total of 75 Republicans are involved in the action, of whom five are captured.

23 February 226 Derry city men, recruited for the Pro-Treaty army, cross the border into Donegal. The RUC commissioner notes that most of those who joined were out of work.

26 February The Anti-Treaty 1st Southern Division Council reconvenes at James Moynihan's Coolea with Liam Lynch attending. Of the 18 officers at the meeting, only two held out any prospect of military victory with most being very pessimistic. The Director of Operations stated “If we intensify our war it will mean losing some of our best men who will be executed”. Lynch agrees that the position in the south is bad but claims that things are better in other parts of the country. Most disagree with this – Lynch agrees to the holding of an Executive Meeting.
