Framed Print of Seizure of casks, with arms and ammunition, on board the Dublin steamer Windsor, 1870. Creator: Unknown
Seizure of casks, with arms and ammunition, on board the Dublin steamer Windsor, 1870. The subject of our Illustration is the seizure of Fenian contraband arms on Friday, the 1st April, on board the Dublin and Holyhead steam-boat Windsor, at the moment of its arrival at the North Wall pier in Dublin. There were two casks or barrels, each packed with breech-loading rifles (twenty-five in all), directed to persons in the west of Ireland. A third cask, which contained revolvers and ammunition, was found on board the steamer Countess of Erne, arriving in the afternoon of the same day. The police at Belfast, on Saturday last, seized a box containing pikes, rifles, and ammunition, on board the steamer from Fleetwood. Some arms were also seized at Cork, which had been sent from Liverpool to a shopkeeper dealing in hardware; but he was able to prove that he had ordered them for his legitimate trade, and they have been restored to him'.
