        Quote from Eamon de Valera transcribed by Robert Daly, Hut 14, Tintown No 3 Camp:

        'Soldiers of Liberty! Legion of the rearguard! Let not sorrow overwhelm you. Your efforts and the sacrifices if your dead comrades in this forlorn hope have saved the nations honour and kept open the road to independence.'

        Verse transcribed by M. Galvin, Hut 5, Tintown No. 3 Camp,

        'Keep me in your memory
        I dare not ask for more
        We may not meet as we have met
        When prison life is o'er
        Your path and mine may be
        In future far apart
        Time may bring a change of scenes
        But not a change of heart.
