Text reads thus, " I desire to thank the troops who have been engaged in the City of Dublin for their splendid behaviour under the trying conditions of street fighting which I found it necessary to order them to undertake. Owing to the excellent direction of the officers and the tireless efforts of the troops all the surviving rebels in Dublin have now surrendered unconditionally. I specially wish to express my gratitude to those Irish Regiments which have so largely helped to crush this rising. Many incidents of very gallant behaviour have been brought to my notice to which I am unable to refer to in this order but I must express my admiration of the conduct of a small detachment from the 6th Reserve Cavalry Regiment which, when conveying ammunition, was attacked in Charles Street and after a splendid defence of three and a half days, during which their leaders were struck down, safely delivered the ammunition". J.G. Maxwell, General, Commanding-in-Chief, The Forces in Ireland. Dated 1st May, 1916.); Photo © Hilary Morgan

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful lithograph captures a pivotal moment in Irish history - the aftermath of the Easter Rebellion of 1916. The Original General Order Document, given to soldiers at Kilmainham Detention Barracks, serves as a testament to the bravery and sacrifice displayed during this tumultuous time. The text on the document, signed by J.G. Maxwell, General Commanding-in-Chief of The Forces in Ireland, expresses gratitude towards the troops for their "splendid behaviour under trying conditions" during street fighting in Dublin. It acknowledges the gallant behavior of Irish regiments and highlights a particularly heroic incident involving a small detachment from the 6th Reserve Cavalry Regiment. The image evokes a sense of solemnity and pride as we reflect on the courage shown by those who fought for their beliefs. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made and the resilience displayed in pursuit of freedom and independence. As we gaze upon this historic document, we are transported back to a time when ordinary men were called upon to do extraordinary things. It stands as a symbol of strength and unity in the face of adversity, inspiring us to honor those who came before us and continue striving for justice and equality.
