Documents, Letters and Plans relating to the Easter Rising, April 24th 1916 With particular regard to the arrest and interrogation of Sir Roger Casement through Major Frank Hall Property of a gentleman and by descent from Frank Hall

525.

The Easter Rising announcement by coded message Original telegram, in code, sent to America on 22 April 1916, two days before the Rising in Dublin took place, apparently announcing the successful plan for the rebellion.

Volunteer companies around Ireland had been informed on the 21st that they would be parading on Easter Sunday, the 23rd, but only a few people knew that this meant the uprising was about to begin. In the event, disagreement among the leaders caused a delay, and an effort was made to call off the insurrection altogether, so that it was not until the morning of Easter Monday, 24 April, that the Volunteers and Citizens’ Army took possession of several key buildings in Dublin. The telegram was sent via the international telegraph office at Valencia Island, County Kerry, and bears 17 British postage stamps, all cancelled with a hand-stamp timed at 3:45pm on 22 April. It is addressed to Mrs T. McGowan in Kosiusko Street, Brooklyn, New York, and reads ‘ Tom operated on today successfully’. The signature appears to have been transmitted as ‘O[‘]Sullivan’ (‘Margaret’ deleted). The message is written on separate piece attached to the official telegram form by the postage stamps. On the reverse of this piece is written ‘T. Ring’. Accompanying the telegram is a note in an unidentified hand to Major Hall on Home Office paper, dated 20.11.16: “Gaelic American” of 29.4.16 & original Cable form in the case of Timothy Ring herewith as per your request of 16.11.16 and 113034/M.I.5G3 of 22.8.16. with Mr Waller’s compliments.’ It may not be coincidental that Roger Casement was said to have been attended at his execution by two Irish Catholic priests, ‘Dean [sic] Timothy Ring and Father James Carey’ (Wikipedia, and A History of St Mary & St Michael’s Parish, by Jean Maynard and others, London 2007, p. 213) .

Canon Timothy Ring (1858-1941), born in County Kerry, was a popular and influential Catholic priest, Rector of an East London church and, not surprisingly, a firm advocate of Irish Home Rule. His possible involvement in the events of April 1916 is unclear.

Together with the copy of The Gaelic American of 29 April 1916 announcing the Rising and describing how it was only through receipt of a coded telegram that the truth had been known, all messages and despatches from England having been censored.

With related material in a folder (‘of special interest’) annotated by Colonel Frank Hall (the list including other material that Hall apparently deposited in the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland in 1962).

Lieutenant-Colonel Frank Hall (1876-1964) was from an old Irish landowning family. He had joined the army in 1895, and after only a short career retired for the first time in 1911. He soon became involved in the paramilitary politics of Northern Ireland and became Military Secretary of the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF). He was member of the committee responsible for organising the landing and distribution of arms for the UVF, although perhaps not aware that they had come from Germany.

When arms were run into Larne and Bangor, Hall’s contribution to the exercise was in an intelligence role, aiming to confuse the constabulary and army around Belfast and disrupting telephone communications. In 1913 he imported Maxim guns from London, and in 1914 he was offered a job there, joining MI5, becoming the first ‘Q’ of Military Intelligence. (For Hall’s involvement with Roger Casement see the following lot.)

Three further envelopes of Hall’s papers: (‘A’) Hall’s typewritten account of the Gun Running, the ‘Ulster Coup’ of 24 April 1914, as recollected in 1934, with typescript note ‘This throws rather a lurid light on JAMES CRAIG. It should be treated as CONFIDENTIAL’; letter of 25 September 1914 from FH suggesting questions to be put to the Ulster Unionist Council at their meeting; copy letter from a Belgian diplomat about the offer by Colonel [Maurice] Moore to sell German arms to Belgium, 3 February 1914; notes on armaments from Germany, signed W.M.; copy telegram to [?Joseph] Devlin in Dublin from Moore offering ‘implements’ and cartridges, 4 January 1915, and of a censored telegram from [Alice] Green expressing dissatisfaction with the South and that the Volunteers in the North should be armed. (‘B’) Papers retained by Hall from 1914-15: Two copies annotated by FH of a report headed ‘SECRET’ relating to a movement afoot to provide arms (13 January 1915) with reference to ‘notorious pro-Germans, associates and confederates of CASEMENT’; list of those conspiring to provide arms for the Nationalist Volunteers, including associates of Casement, 12 January 1915; copies of (intercepted) telegrams and copy letters between Kettle and Moore; long letter to Hall, Dublin, 10 August 1914, describing a meeting with Colonel Moore and Captain [FitzRoy] Hamphill; list of volunteers who attended Raheen Manor training depot; copy letters annotated by FH; flimsy précis of correspondence about the purchase of arms (Moore/Kettle/Casement), 4 pages folio; copy letter to Moore from Irish Volunteers Inspector General’s Office, Dublin, 8 November 1915, 3 pages folio; copies of telegrams and letters, 4 pages folio, December 1914-January 1915; reports from the Irish Government on seditious publications, arms trafficking etc., 6 pages and covering notes, 14 pages folio in all, with FH’s note attached ‘DESTROY when perused’; W[ar] O[ffice] file ‘Genl No 5/479’ 24/12/1914, concerning the ‘wait and see’ attitude of the British government, heavily annotated in red, probably by FH. With Extracts of reports from G.O.C. Troops, Ireland to the Secretary of the War Office, 9/12/1918.

Later material: File of papers about the Ulster Covenant Jubilee, 1962, including correspondence between FH and Lord Brookeborough [Basil Brooke, Prime Minister of Northern Ireland], and with the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland [PRONI] with reference to FH’s gun-running narrative (presumably the 1934 typescript included above) which he does not wish to be made public. Three envelopes with British Stamps overprinted by the Provisional Government of Ireland in 1922, and a photograph of Ballyedmond Castle, the property of Lady Ballyedmond. see illustration £1500-2000

525A. An original sketch-map in Roger Casement’s hand, showing the location of items he and his companions had hidden after landing from the German U-boat U-19 on Banna Strand, County Kerry on Good Friday, 1916. Two facing pages 8vo, on blindstamped paper of the Metropolitan Police Office (Scotland Yard), with Casement’s directions to the cache (‘Under some fern bracken & bramble in the moat…’). The only things mentioned are ‘1 pair Binoculars’ and ‘1 Lamp; the words ‘£50 in gold & silver’ may be in a different hand, probably that of one of his interrogators, Major (later Colonel) Frank Hall. With contemporary envelope in Hall’s hand; ‘Plan of RATH drawn by Roger Casement at Scotland Yard when first interrogated on Easter Sunday 1916. Present B[asil] T[homson]/Herschell/Self. F H. Accompanying Casement’s map is a later note written in ink by Frank Hall on a small slip, which gives details of the distribution of the cache after it had been retrieved. It is known that three Mauser pistols had been discovered when Casement was arrested in Ireland, and F E Smithin his account of the trial of Casement has it that ‘Bailey buried there some wepons, some maps of Ireland of foreign origin and three coast, one of which contained Casement’s diary’, but this documents gives a fuller picture. ‘His binoculars were given to Basil Thomas/Gold sleeve links to DI Cheesman, ‘Flag of Irish republic’ to R I C mess Phoenix Park, Cash to Sgt. & Constable R I C, 3 mauser pistols to me. I gave one to [Major Ivor] Price who used it at Connie Marciewitz [sic] at the Castle & missed her’ and a copy of The Easter Rising surrender document given to Frank Hall by E W Pearson. see illustration £1500-2000

Thompson. Captain Frank Hall was the key organiser behind the Ulster Day demonstrations of 28 September 1912, which climaxed in the mass signing of the Solemn League and Covenant. On the formation of the UVF he became its Military Secretary and later became the first “Q” in MI5. The ‘friends’ whose facsimile signatures are engraved inside the cover of this box were prominent Unionists. Lloyd Campbell became MP for Belfast North, George Richardson agreed to command the newly formed Ulster Volunteer Force in 1913 and oversaw the Larne gun-running, Boughey William Dolling Montgomery conceived the ‘Ulster Covenant’, R Dawson Bates was a Unionist politician who in 1906 was appointed Secretary of the Ulster Unionist Council, he was instrumental in the events of Ulster Day, the formation of the UVF and organised the Larne gun-running, Edward Sclater was Chairman of the Unionist Club of Ireland. see illustration £600-800

She married Carl Koch in 1921, collaborated with Fritz Lang and Berthold Brecht, Jean Renoir and many others. Her most famous full length feature animated silhouette film ‘The Adventures of Prince Achmed’ was released in 1926 to great acclaim. She and her husband fled Nazi Germany in 1933 (both were involved in left-wing politics), and worked with Jean Renoir in Paris and Luchino Visconti in Rome. They moved to London in 1935, making many short films based on Grimm’s Fairy Tales. Reiniger was awarded The Filmband in Gold of the Deutscher Filmpreis in 1972 and received the Great Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany. She died on 19th June 1981 aged 82.

All of our auctions are governed by our Conditions of Business incorporating the Terms of Consignment (primarily applicable to sellers), the Terms of Sale (primarily applicable to bidders and buyers) and any notices that are displayed in our salerooms or announced by the auctioneer at the auction. Our Conditions of Business are available for inspection at our salerooms and the Terms of Sale are printed in the back of our auction catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything in our Conditions of Business that you do not fully understand.

Please make sure that you read our Terms of Sale set out in our catalogue or on our website carefully before bidding in the auction. If your bid is successful, you will be obliged to comply with our Terms of Sale.

2. Agency. As auctioneers we usually act on behalf of the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. If you buy at auction your contract for the goods is with the seller, not with us as auctioneer.

3. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help you gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. Estimates may change and should not be thought of as the sale price. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price (the minimum price for which a lot may be sold) and will not be below the reserve price. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium or VAT (where chargeable).

Estimates are prepared some time before the auction and may be altered by a saleroom notice or announcement by the auctioneer before the auction of the lot. They are not definitive.

4. Buyer’s Premium. The Terms of Sale oblige you to pay a buyer’s premium on the hammer price of each lot purchased at the following rates:

20% on the first £100,000

15% on the excess between £100,001 and £500,000

12.5% on the excess between £500,001 and £1,000,000

10% on the excess between £1,000,001 Where thresholds apply, the higher premium rate will apply to the portion of the bid price up to the threshold and the lower premium rate will apply to the portion of the bid price in excess of the threshold. In addition, VAT is included in this premium (see below).

5. VAT. Items in our catalogue may be marked in the following ways:

a.

( *) indicates that VAT is payable by the buyer on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’s premium. VAT will be chargeable at the standard rate (presently 20%). This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK.

b. (**) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union. These lots are liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the hammer price and buyer’s premium).

c. Lots which do not have either of the above symbols have no VAT payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme. The VAT included within the premium is not recoverable as input tax.

6. Inspection of goods by the buyer. As we act on behalf of the seller, we are dependent on information provided by the seller about their goods. We may inspect lots and will act reasonably in taking a general view about them. However, we are normally unable to carry out detailed examinations of lots to check their condition in the way a buyer would do.

You will have ample opportunity to inspect the goods. You must inspect and investigate lots that you might wish to bid for. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots set out in the Terms of Sale at clause 12.4.

7. Electrical goods. These are sold as “antiques” only. If you buy electrical goods for use you must ask a qualified electrician to check them for compliance with safety regulations before you use them.

8. Export of goods. If you intend to export goods you must find out:

a.

whether an export licence is needed; and

b. if there is a prohibition on importing goods of that character e.g. because the goods contain prohibited materials such as ivory.

9. Bidding. Bidders will be required to register with us before the auction starts. We reserve the right to impose a deadline prior to the auction by which you must register or by which we must receive a commission bid. If you wish to bid on high value lots this deadline may be several days before the auction in order to allow us sufficient time to carry out the necessary checks. Lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. You will need to provide us with proof of your identity in a form acceptable to us and such other information as we may require. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone or online bidding. Please note that we may refuse to register you if you do not provide us with all the information and documentation that we ask for or at our discretion.

10. Commission bidding. You may leave commission bids with us indicating the maximum amount to be bid against a lot (excluding the buyers’ premium and/or any applicable VAT). We will execute commission bids as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids we may prefer the first bid received (where this can be reasonably ascertained). Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone or fax/email or via our website or online bidding platform.

11. Methods of Payment. Usually any payment will need to be cleared before you can take the goods away except for cash, for which there is an upper limit of 15,000 Euros equivalent. Cheques are not acceptable tender unless agreed in advance with a Director of Chorley’s. Credit card payments will incur a surcharge of 3% + VAT on the amount due.

12. Collection and storage. Please note what the Terms of Sale say about collection and storage. It is important that you pay for and collect goods promptly. Any delay may involve you having to pay storage charges.

TERMS OF SALE Both the sale of goods at our auctions and your relationship with us are governed by the Terms of Consignment (primarily applicable to sellers), the Terms of Sale (primarily applicable to bidders and buyers) and any notices displayed in the saleroom or announced by us at the auction (collectively, the “Conditions of Business”). The Terms of Consignment and Terms of Sale are available at our saleroom on request.

Please read these Terms of Sale carefully. Please note that if you register to bid and/or bid at auction this signifies that you agree to and will comply with these Terms of Sale.

Please note that these Terms of Sale relate to auctions held at our premises only.

9.2 We will act reasonably when exercising our rights under Clause 9.1. We will contact you before exercising these rights and try to work with you to correct any noncompliance by you with these Terms of Sale.

Although we take reasonable precautions regarding health and safety, you are on our premises at your own risk. Please note the lay-out of the premises and security arrangements.

12.4 Please note that Lots (in particular second-hand Lots) are unlikely to be in perfect condition. Lots are sold “as is” (i.e. as you see them at the time of the auction). Neither we nor the Seller accept any liability for the condition of second-hand Lots or for any condition issues affecting a Lot if such issues are included in the description of a Lot in the auction catalogue (or in any saleroom notice) and/ or which the inspection of a Lot by the Buyer ought to have revealed.

11 Warranties

11.1

The Seller warrants to us and to you that:

11.1.1 the Seller is the true owner of the Lot for sale or is authorised by the true owner to offer and sell the lot at auction;

11.1.2 the Seller is able to transfer good and marketable title to the Lot to you free from any third party rights or claims; and

13.1 You may return any Lot which is found to be a Deliberate Forgery to us within six months of the auction provided that you return the Lot to us in the same condition as when it was released to you, accompanied by a written statement identifying the Lot from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects.

10

Health and safety

11.1.3 as far as the Seller is aware, the main characteristics of the Lot set out in the auction catalogue (as amended by any notice displayed in the saleroom or announced by the Auctioneer at the auction) are correct.

11.2 If, after you have placed a successful bid and paid for a Lot, any of the warranties above are found not to be true, please notify us in writing. Neither we nor the Seller will be liable to pay you any sums over and above the Total Amount Due and we will not be responsible for any inaccuracies in the information provided by the Seller except as set out below.

11.3 Please note that many of the Lots that you may bid on at our auction are second-hand.

11.4 If a Lot is not second-hand and you purchase the Lot as a Consumer from a Seller that is a Trader, a number of additional terms may be implied by law in addition to the Seller’s warranties set out at Clause 11.1 (in particular under the Consumer Rights Act 2015). These Terms of Sale do not seek to exclude your rights under law as they relate to the sale of these Lots.

11.5 Save as expressly set out above, all other warranties, conditions or other terms which might have effect between the Seller and you, or us and you, or be implied or incorporated by statue, common law or otherwise are excluded.

12

Descriptions and condition

12.1 Our descriptions of the Lot will be based on: (a) information provided to us by the Seller of the Lot (for which we are not liable); and (ii) our opinion (although it is likely that we will not be able to carry out a detailed inspection of each Lot).

12.2 We will give you a number of opportunities to view and inspect the Lots before the auction. You (and any independent consultants acting on your behalf) must satisfy yourself about the accuracy of any description of a Lot. We shall not be responsible for any failure by you or your consultants to properly inspect a Lot. 12.3 Representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion will be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently.

Deliberate Forgeries

13.2 If we are reasonably satisfied that the Lot is a Deliberate Forgery we will refund the money paid by you for the Lot (including any Premium and applicable VAT) provided that if:

13.2.1 the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of experts as at the date of the auction; or

13.2.2 you personally are not able to transfer good and marketable title in the Lot to us, you will have no right to a refund under this Clause 13.2.

13.3 If you have sold the Lot to another person, we will only be liable to refund the price that you paid for the Lot. We will not be responsible for repaying any additional money you may have made from selling the Lot. 13.4 Your right to return a Lot that is a Deliberate Forgery does not affect your legal rights and is in addition to any other right or remedy provided by law or by these Terms of Sale.

14

Our liability to you

14.1 We will not be liable for any loss of opportunity or disappointment suffered as a result of participating in our auction.

14.2 In addition to the above, neither we nor the Seller shall be responsible to you and you shall not be responsible to the Seller or us for any other loss or damage that any of us suffer that is not a foreseeable result of any of us not complying with the Conditions of Business. Loss or damage is foreseeable if it is obvious that it will happen or if at the time of the sale of the Lot, we, you and the Seller knew it might happen.

14.3 Subject to Clause 14.4, if we are found to be liable to you for any reason (including, amongst others, if we are found to be negligent, in breach of contract or to have made a misrepresentation), our liability will be limited to the total purchase price paid by you to us for any Lot. 14.4 Notwithstanding the above, nothing in these Terms of Sale shall limit our liability (or that of our employees or agents) for:

14.4.1 death or personal injury resulting from negligence (as defined in the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977);

14.4.2 fraudulent misrepresentation; or

14.4.3 any liability which cannot be excluded by law.
