Hoisting the Flag at the Curragh

The second plate contains the caption " Col. O'Connell hoists the Irish flag on the Water Tower of The Curragh Camp, after the taking-over ceremony, May 16 1922 '. Two men can be seen hoisting the flag with perhaps a third person who is barely visible behind the flag. Another man looks on from the doorway.
