Framed Print of The State of Ireland: searching for arms, 1881. Creator: W. I. Mosses
The State of Ireland: searching for arms, 1881. Our Illustration of a scene occasioned by one of the extraordinary measures of precaution that Government has been obliged to adopt in Ireland, the search for concealed arms under the Peace Preservation Act, might sufficiently explain itself. We here see a party of that half-military police force, the Royal Irish Constabulary, with their officer in command, in the kitchen of a small farm-house, raising the hearthstone with a crowbar to look for suspected rifles or revolvers, while the loft overhead is about to be explored by the man now ascending the ladder in the corner of the room. The fierce and sullen temper of the man in custody, or perhaps only expecting to be led off as a prisoner when the evidences of his illegal conduct shall have been discovered, is plainly expressed by his face, sitting there, hopeless of resistance, amidst half a dozen armed guardians of law and order. His wife and daughter are trying, but in vain, the power of their tearful entreaty to relax the officer's stern sense of duty; and there can be no doubt that the resident magistrate of the district will have to deal with this case'.
