Boat Bringing Back the Body of Terence MacSwiney to Cork Harbour After He Died on Hunger Strike, 1920. 'When McSwiney's body returned to his native Cork, there were many troops and armoured cars on hand in case there should be trouble. But there was no trouble, only a great and terrible sadness. In less than a year, feeling both in Ireland and Britain was to result in the Irish Free State'. From "Time To Remember - The Plunge Into Peace", 1920 (Reel 4); events of 1920 - weddings, women's rights, industrial unrest and problems in Ireland
