Robbers and Hunger-strikers

1 p.; Printed

An anti-Treaty republican handbill. The text reads ‘Mr. [William T.] Cosgrave stated on Sunday in Dublin, that the Republican Hunger-strikers are in jail because life and property were not safe while they were at large. … During the past six months, sixteen Free State Soldiers have been convicted in the criminal courts for robbery under arms and murder. .. Not even one Republican soldier has been charged with any of these offences. Who then are the robbers?’.
