William Copeland Borlase, MP for Cornwall East
1880-1885 and St. Austell 1885-1887 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Borlase's downfall appears to have been a fine
example of Congreve's famously misquoted |
|
|
phrase that "hell hath no fury like a
woman scorned." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After being appointed Under-Secretary of the
Local Government Board in 1886, Borlase's |
|
|
career crashed in the following year when his
mistress, Madame de Quiros, spilt the beans |
|
|
over their relationship and his level of debts. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following edited report of Borlase's
bankruptcy hearing is taken from "Lloyd's Weekly |
|
|
Newspaper" of 4 December 1887:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'At the London Bankruptcy court, on Wednesday,
a meeting was held, before Mr. Registrar |
|
|
Giffard, for the public examination of William
Copeland Borlase, ex-M.P. for St. Austell, and |
|
|
Under-Secretary of the Local Government Board
in the last Liberal Administration. The |
|
|
|
bankrupt is described as of Laregan, Penzance,
and Bond-street
Madame L. de Quiros |
|
|
|
had been entered in his statement as a creditor
for Ł5,111, to which was a note to the |
|
|
effect that the money claimed by her had been
lent between 1883 and 1887, and that she |
|
|
had recovered judgment for Ł3,700 in default of
his being able to pay the money into court; |
|
|
but that he did not admit the claim, as she was
in possession of furniture and jewellery and |
|
|
other articles which more than covered the
debt. That statement was absolutely true. - Do |
|
|
you swear that she has ever lent you money? -
To the best of my recollection, she has not. |
|
|
I first knew Mdme. de Quiros when she resided
at Hyde-park-place, where she had a |
|
|
|
furnished house of her own. - And did you pass
as Mr. de Quiros? - Never, that I am aware |
|
|
of. The servants might have announced me as Mr.
de Quiros, but I never went by that |
|
|
|
name. - Were you a married man at that time? -
I was. - Did you conceal from her the fact |
|
|
that you were a married man? - Certainly not.
When I first knew her she was possessed of |
|
|
some furniture at Hyde-park-place, but I
afterwards paid Ł800 to retain the furniture. It was |
|
|
afterwards removed to Queen Anne-street, which
house I took in my own name. What did |
|
|
you allow this lady? - I allowed her the sum of
Ł25 per week. I allowed it her first because |
|
|
I knew her history and pitied her, but it was
afterwards extorted from me. - What do you |
|
|
mean by that expression? - It was extorted from
me in consequence of my public position |
|
|
as M.P. and magistrate for my county. It was
not an extortion at first, but it became one |
|
|
when this lady followed me all over the world
to Spain, and finally to Wales, where I had to |
|
|
obtain police protection against her and a
bully who was with her. The last Ł500 he had |
|
|
|
given to her was in Trafalgar-square. She was
passing in a cab, and she flew at him and |
|
|
attacked him before people whom he knew and
made him go to the bank and get the Ł500 |
|
|
|
Ł500 for her. It was a fact that Madame de
Quiros had given a bill of sale over the furniture |
|
|
at Queen Anne-street to a Mr. Brown, and he had
given her the money to repay Brown. |
|
|
Madame de Quiros accused him of things which he
had never done, and at two o'clock in |
|
|
the morning she insisted on walking down the
street and going into his wife's bedroom and |
|
|
telling her who he was and who she was. Since
then his life had been a misery from the |
|
|
|
action of Madame de Quiros.' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Borlase's next examination was in late January
1888. The "Ipswich Journal" commented in |
|
|
its issue of 27 January 1888:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Madame de Quiros, the lady for whom the debtor
[Borlase] had furnished and maintained |
|
|
at the expenditure of Ł25 a week a sumptuous
residence in Queen Anne-street, is the most |
|
|
unrelenting of his creditors. Her counsel has
had Mr. Borlase under examination for eight |
|
|
|
hours, and today she occupied a seat in Court,
and prompted questions which were likely |
|
|
to be embarrassing to the debtor. The name of
another lady whom Mr. Borlase had started |
|
|
in business at an expenditure of Ł6 was
introduced, but the debtor absolutely refused to |
|
|
answer questions relating to this
transaction unless he were allowed to
make an |
|
|
|
explanation, which would "involve a third
party." This, however, did not seem pleasing to |
|
|
Madame's counsel, and the subject was not
pursued. But even after such a degrading |
|
|
|
exposure as that to which Mr. Borlase had been
subjected, the measure of this implacable |
|
|
female's vengeance was not appeased. As the
parties left the Court she warned him, in |
|
|
|
tones loud enough to provoke the remonstrance
of the Registrar, that he need not delude |
|
|
himself into the belief that the exposure of
his conduct (she did not use the word conduct) |
|
|
was at an end. Mr. Borlase has learnt by a
bitter lesson how fiercely a woman can hate.' |

Sir George Houston Reid, MP for St.George's,
Hanover Square 1916-1918 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sir George is the only Australian Prime
Minister to have also sat in the House of Commons. As |
|
|
far as I am aware, only two men have sat in
both the Australian Federal Parliament and the |
|
|
House of Commons - Sir George Reid, and William
Yates, who sat in the House of Commons for |
|
|
The Wrekin 1955-1966 and in the Australian
House of Representatives for the electorate of |
|
|
Holt 1975-1980. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following biography of Sir George Reid is
taken from the Australian monthly magazine |
|
|
"Parade" for March 1964:- |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'On his retirement from politics in 1909 the
bluff and witty George Reid, who had been both |
|
|
Premier of New South Wales and Prime Minister
of the recently founded Commonwealth, was |
|
|
honoured with a knighthood. A friend asked what
the letters of his title (KCMG) stood for. |
|
|
"Keep Calling Me George," the new knight
replied. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'A clumsily-built man with a "great
amplitude of waistcoat," a ripple of chins, baby-pink skin, a |
|
|
tremendous walrus moustache and short legs, Sir
George Reid was indeed a picturesque |
|
|
politician. His habit of spending much of his
time sitting on the political fence earned him the |
|
|
title of Yes-No George, but the nickname did
not worry him. At a public meeting an elector |
|
|
even went so far as to call him two-faced. Reid
calmly surveyed him through his monocle. "It's |
|
|
obvious," he said, "that you're not.
If you had another face you wouldn't come out in that |
|
|
one." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Sent off to England in the twilight of his
career to be Australia's first High Commissioner in |
|
|
London, Sir George became so popular that when
his term ended he was offered a safe seat |
|
|
in the House of Commons. He accepted and was
returned unopposed - a compliment never |
|
|
accorded him in Australia. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'George Houston Reid was born on February 25,
1845, at Johnstone, Scotland. His father, a |
|
|
Presbyterian clergyman, moved the family to
England when the boy was two. Years later when |
|
|
he was Premier of NSW, George Reid paid a visit
to his birthplace and was given a tumultuous |
|
|
welcome, as the little town's most successful
son. Joking about his 17-stone figure, he told |
|
|
his audience his reason for leaving Johnstone
was that he wished to make more room for the |
|
|
rest of the inhabitants. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The Reid family did not stay long in England.
When George was seven they migrated to |
|
|
|
Melbourne. Six years later they moved again to
Sydney when Reid senior was invited by the |
|
|
Rev. John Dunmore Lang to become his colleague
at the Scots Church. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The 13-year-old George went to work as a clerk
in a merchant's office. In his spare time he |
|
|
began laying the foundations of his skill as a
public speaker by taking part in weekly debates |
|
|
with an organisation connected with the Phillip
St. Presbyterian Church. At 18 he became a |
|
|
temporary clerk in the NSW Treasury. Two years
later he appeared as a witness for the |
|
|
|
department in a court case. His skilful
parrying of questions so impressed Sir Julian Salomons |
|
|
QC that he sought out the lowly clerk and
encouraged him to study for the Bar. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Thus George Reid began a law course. But with
his natural indolence, fondness for convivial |
|
|
living and liking for feminine company, he took
13 years to finish it. Years later the presence |
|
|
of a beautiful woman in the gallery of the
Legislative Assembly excited comment among the |
|
|
members. Reid's reputation as a Lothario was
then so notorious that when Sir Henry Parkes |
|
|
was asked her identity he replied, "Well,
George Reid says he does not know her so I can only |
|
|
conclude that she must be respectable." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'However, while ambling along through his law
studies, Reid devoted some of his time to solid |
|
|
literary work. He produced five essays on free
trade, which won the medal of the English |
|
|
Cobden Society, as well as a handbook on NSW
and its resources which the Government |
|
|
printed and circulated overseas. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'At last Reid passed his final examination and
in 1879 was admitted to the NSW Bar. The |
|
|
|
following year he resigned as Secretary of the
Lands Department to stand for one of the four |
|
|
East Sydney seats in the State House. He first
addressed an election meeting while standing |
|
|
on a wagon. The noisy audience greeted his
rotund figure with a fusillade of rotten eggs and |
|
|
bags of flour. When one rough interrupted his
first sentence Reid flung him a half-crown with |
|
|
the remark: "Go and get a drink." The
invitation was accepted and the rest of the crowd then |
|
|
good-humouredly settled down to hear his
speech. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'There were seven candidates for the four East
Sydney seats including the former Premier, |
|
|
Sir Henry Parkes. Yet when the election was
over the previously unknown Reid had topped |
|
|
the poll. Parkes just scraped home in fourth place. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'When Parkes became Premier again in a
coalition government with Sir John Robertson and his |
|
|
followers, Reid used his inside knowledge of
the Lands Department to attack the Government. |
|
|
Reid pointed out that after 20 years of
supposed free selection of land, there were still 8 |
|
|
million acres in NSW held by a handful of
monopolists and their dummies. It was on this issue |
|
|
that the Parkes-Robertson Government eventually
fell. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In January 1883 the new Premier, Alexander
Stuart, offered Reid his first portfolio as Minister |
|
|
for Education. Well aware of the inadequacies
of the State's education system, the new |
|
|
minister built new buildings to replace tent
schools, established secondary schools in a number |
|
|
of country towns, pioneered a system of
technical education and provided for the first evening |
|
|
lectures at the university. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Both in the House and on the election platform
he showed a skill at repartee rarely equalled. |
|
|
Once an obese opposition member complained of
the poor attendance in the House and |
|
|
|
secured an adjournment just as the Minister for
Education was about to introduce a new |
|
|
measure. "I suppose the minister will try
to sneak the Bill in again when there's another thin |
|
|
House," he said sarcastically. "It
will never be a thin House while the honourable member and I |
|
|
sit in it," Reid said. However, Reid's
best known quip was probably his reply to a woman who |
|
|
shouted to him at an election meeting: "If
I were your wife I'd give you poison." Reid looked |
|
|
her over carefully through his monocle, and the
observed: "And if I were your husband madam, |
|
|
I'd take it." [Almost exactly the same
words are often quoted in an exchange between |
|
|
|
Winston Churchill and Nancy Astor] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'At the next election he lost his seat, but he
won it back again in 1885 and then sat |
|
|
|
continuously in the Legislative Assembly until
1901 when his East Sydney followers sent him to |
|
|
the new Commonwealth Parliament. In 1894, as
leader of the Free Trade Party, he became |
|
|
Premier of NSW. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'All his life George Reid had the ability to
catch up with his sleep whatever the hour pr the |
|
|
surroundings. Almost nightly, commuters in the
late train to Burwood were familiar with the |
|
|
sight of their top-hatted Premier fast asleep
in the entire seat his bulk required. All his political |
|
|
life he was an ardent supporter of free trade.
He refused to believe that any local industry |
|
|
needed a tariff to assist against overseas
competition. "Chuck 'em in and let 'em swim," was |
|
|
his constant war cry about such industries. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In 1899 the minority Labor Party on which
George Reid relied to stay in office transferred its |
|
|
support to the opposition led by William Lyne.
Lyne had attracted the Labor men by promising |
|
|
to introduce an old-age pension bill. When the
Government fell, Lyne became Premier. Reid |
|
|
switched to the Federal sphere and at the first
elections in 1901 became the member for East |
|
|
Sydney. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In the new Commonwealth Parliament he was
leader of the strong free trade opposition |
|
|
against the protectionist government's first
Prime Minister, Edmund Barton. After the second |
|
|
Federal elections in 1903 Reid joined with
Labour to defeat the government of Alfred Deakin. |
|
|
J.C. Watson then became Labor Prime Minister. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In the first 10 years of the Commonwealth
Parliament, members changed alliances and parties |
|
|
changed policies with high agility. No one was
more ready to seize the opportunity of the |
|
|
moment than wily Yes-No Reid. After putting
Labor into power, he switched once more and |
|
|
joined Deakin to overthrow Watson's Labor
Ministry. As Deakin would not form a coalition |
|
|
government himself, the way was left open for
Reid to ally himself and his party with some of |
|
|
Deakin's followers and grab the Prime
Ministership. He had a majority of only two but managed |
|
|
to stay in power for 10 months by effecting a
truce with Deakin. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'On June 24, 1905, Deakin withdrew his support.
Reid gambled and asked the Governor-General |
|
|
for a dissolution and thus a new election, but
the request was refused. Inevitably, Reid's |
|
|
Government fell. Deakin formed a new
administration and carried on until November 1908. Then |
|
|
Labor came back to power under Andrew Fisher. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Reid, tiring of his long period in opposition
and seeing no chance of regaining office retired |
|
|
from politics in 1909. He was knighted soon
after, and the following year was appointed the |
|
|
first Australian High Commissioner in London.
When his term expired in 1915 he offered to |
|
|
continue without salary. But W.M. Hughes, the
then Australian Prime Minister, wanted the |
|
|
post for Andrew Fisher, who had stepped aside
so Hughes could take office. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Reid had a card up his sleeve. A few days
before his term ended he was offered the House of |
|
|
Commons seat of Hanover Square. He was duly
elected unopposed as an independent |
|
|
|
imperialist. There, a lion of British society,
Sir George Reid, the one-time temporary govern- |
|
|
ment clerk in Sydney, ended his mercurial
career in public life. He died of a cerebral seizure on |
|
|
September 12, 1918.' |

Constance Georgine Markievicz, MP for
St.Patrick's, Dublin 1918-1922 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Constance was the daughter of Sir Henry
Gore-Booth, 5th baronet. Her major claim to fame, |
|
|
apart from her role in the struggle for Irish
independence, is that she was the first woman to |
|
|
be elected to the House of Commons, although,
like all other Sinn Fein members, she never |
|
|
took her seat. Remarkably, the following
biography, which appeared in the April 1958 issue of |
|
|
the Australian monthly magazine
"Parade" makes no mention of this fact. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"All Con's mother gave her was her lovely
nose, and all she got from her father was his foolish |
|
|
head," a friend once said. But whether she
was a fool or a saint, Constance Gore-Booth - |
|
|
"Madame" Markievicz as Southern
Ireland called her after her marriage to a Polish Count - was |
|
|
a patriot of the company of her adoption, as
brave, fearless and stubborn a fighter for |
|
|
|
"Ireland's rights" as any of those
others the Irish still claim were martyred by the British in the |
|
|
troublous 1910s. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Constance Georgine Gore-Booth was,
paradoxically enough, more English than Irish, but early |
|
|
in [the 20th century] she gave up home,
husband, child, friends and gracious living for the |
|
|
misery of gaol and the sordid adventures of
guerrilla fighting, spurned the honour of being the |
|
|
first woman elected to Westminster, and
identified herself with her chosen people to die in the |
|
|
poor ward of a Dublin public hospital - all for
a cause she believed right, the cause of Irish |
|
|
freedom. She remains the only woman from the
landlord class to whose memory a public |
|
|
|
monument has been erected with the pennies of
the landless poverty-stricken peasants of |
|
|
Southern Ireland. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'The Gore-Booth title had been Anglo-Irish for
300 years in 1868 when this "wild Irish girl" |
|
|
opened her infant's eyes on the socially sacred
ground of Carlton House Terrace, London |
|
|
residence of her father, Sir Henry Gore-Booth,
fifth baronet. Her youthful life was divided |
|
|
between the fashionable round in London and
carefree existence at Lissadell, the family estate |
|
|
at Sligo, Western Ireland. Even as a child
Constance seemed something of a freak against the |
|
|
rather complacent respectability of her
background. She was "as wild as a deer," spending |
|
|
every moment of escape from her governess on
horseback, or in rubbing shoulders with the |
|
|
poor with "nivver a bit of the young Lady
of Lissadell about her," as the Irish peasants said. |
|
|
Fearless. Tireless, impulsive, self-assertive,
she became famous on the hunting-field and |
|
|
carried her love for horses, her blunt speech
and loud voice into the drawing room. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In 1888 Constance made her debut in London but
professed to be bored with her social |
|
|
launching until she discovered the admiration
her good looks evoked. Then she began to "play |
|
|
to the gallery," becoming for a while a
typical spoiled beauty of chiselled profile and dark eyes. |
|
|
But as the "seasons" passed and her
sisters - first her favourite, Eva, then Mabel - were |
|
|
launched, she grew restless and began getting
into scrapes. There was the time she trained a |
|
|
pet snake to coil around her head as an
adornment and let it "escape"; then the occasion |
|
|
when, in the refreshment tent at Henley Regatta
just after the Prince of Wales walked in, she |
|
|
asked in her loud voice who "the very fat
man" was, and the incident when she stopped a fight |
|
|
between two drunks in a London street by
foolhardily placing herself between them. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'At home in Carlton House Terrace she lived in
"higgledy-piggledy" fashion, draping her clothes |
|
|
all over the stairs, and bringing foreign
students, Indians and beggars to tea. Her parents |
|
|
heaved a sigh of relief when, in the
mid-nineties, she announced her intention of studying art |
|
|
seriously, and they gladly enrolled her at the
Slade School. She worked hard, and by October, |
|
|
1897, had moved to Paris and was studying under
Jean-Paul Laurens. She was still young, |
|
|
beautiful and moneyed, and in Paris in the last
year of the century, after having laughed off |
|
|
proposals of marriage for years, she fell in
love with a fellow-student, Count Casimir Joseph |
|
|
Dunin-Markievicz, an immense 6ft 4in Pole, at
that time a widower with one son. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Although a warrior of many love affairs,
Casimir was only 26 to Constance's 32, but her strong |
|
|
will over-rode his greater interest in another
Englishwoman in Paris. The Gore-Booths were |
|
|
somewhat alarmed, but careful inquiry revealed
that the Count's title was 200 years older than |
|
|
theirs. There was nothing they could do about
it anyway. Accordingly, Constance's mother |
|
|
consented with the best grace she could muster
[her father had died in January 1900], and |
|
|
on September 29, 1900, they were married
"quietly" in London with "only" four bridesmaids |
|
|
instead of the more usual dozen. At Lissadell,
Constance's one child, Maeve Alice, was born in |
|
|
November, 1901, after which they went to Dublin
and settled in a house that had been |
|
|
|
Constance's mother's wedding present. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'At the time Dublin society was ruled from
Dublin Castle and Constance and Casimir held all the |
|
|
cards of entry. She soon grew bored, however,
with the eternal hunting, shooting, yachting |
|
|
and dancing, and while Casimir, with inbred
class distinction, enjoyed the environment - plus |
|
|
the portrait commissions he could wangle - he,
too, really preferred the companionship of |
|
|
fellow artists and men-of-letters, and the
gayer, less formal aspects of Irish life. To one fancy- |
|
|
dress affair he turned up minus his trousers,
explaining that as he was representing a sans- |
|
|
culotte, he would not
be recognized unless he dressed the part. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Gradually the merry pair withdrew from the
highest social circles, conscious that they were |
|
|
too poor to "do it properly" and
finding that world too small anyway. The years rolled by and |
|
|
love seemed to drop out of the marriage.
Constance began to say too often, "I don't know |
|
|
why Casimir married me," so that one day
he snapped back the truth: "He didn't. She'd |
|
|
|
married him!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Constance admitted that she "had not
required" her husband after Maeve had been born. |
|
|
Presently in 1907 she left Maeve to be brought
up by Lady Gore-Booth at Lissadell. Casimir |
|
|
found consolation as a man about town,
frequenting pubs with literary and artistic Bohemians |
|
|
who adopted him as "Cassie." She
herself had been growing to really love the Irish "common" |
|
|
people and to identify herself with them. She
had joined Sinn Fein, at the time a leftist |
|
|
|
anti-British organisation connected with the
Irish literary renaissance. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In 1908, stirred and angry at the social evils
of a country whose mortality rate led the world |
|
|
and where a man was paid 14s for a 90-hour
week, she swung further to the left. After a |
|
|
meeting with Jim Larkin, the big-shouldered
organiser of the new Irish Trade Union, she joined |
|
|
the underground extremists. On her own
initiative, Constance began to develop an idea |
|
|
|
attempted and discarded years before - a boy's
league called Fianna Eireann, which she |
|
|
modelled on the lines of the Boy Scout movement
Baden Powell had just launched in England. |
|
|
There was a law permitting the use of guns on
one's own property, so she took a cottage in |
|
|
the foothills of the Dublin mountains and
brought her boys out there for drill and training. A |
|
|
crack shot herself and tirelessly energetic,
Constance proved herself a good and respected |
|
|
trainer. Casimir was furious.
"Sprouts" he called her young protégés when their eternal comings |
|
|
and goings ended his peace and his painting.
Gloomily agreeing with the verdict of a visiting |
|
|
journalist that it was "not a salon but a
General Headquarters," he took himself off to Poland. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'When he returned two months later, it was to
rescue Constance from the chaos of a co- |
|
|
operative settlement she was trying to
organise. He brought her back to a small house in |
|
|
Dublin, but she then took to writing pamphlets
and reeling off seditious handbills with an old |
|
|
printing press on the dining-room table. The
house was constantly under British secret service |
|
|
supervision, and Casimir, disgusted, called
Constance a "damned fool" and went off to the |
|
|
Balkans as a war-correspondent. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'In 1913, when the strike organised by Larkin
plunged Ireland into deeper misery, Constance |
|
|
ran a soup kitchen, working at the most menial
tasks herself and rallying her helpers with her |
|
|
courage and good humour. With the New Year,
when, after eight months, poverty, hunger and |
|
|
hopelessness drove the men back to work, the
satisfaction of vested interests with their |
|
|
victory was tempered by the uneasy feeling that
Irish labour had gained the strength of unity |
|
|
for a later contest. Everyone saw trouble
ahead, and Constance plunged headlong into it, |
|
|
rallying to the flag of James Connolly
[1868-1916, executed following the Easter Rising] and |
|
|
the Irish Citizen Army whose avowed principal
was that the ownership of Ireland, moral and |
|
|
material, was "vested by right in the
people of Ireland." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'She designed herself a dark-green uniform with
slouch hat and knee boots. All through 1914 |
|
|
and 1915 she was working, lecturing and
training. With Easter Monday, 1916, came the Irish |
|
|
Rising in Dublin - curtain-raiser to the
Anglo-Irish war. It began with a proclamation |
|
|
|
announcing the establishment of the Provisional
Independent Irish Government by the rebels, |
|
|
and from that moment until the end of her life
Constance had neither child, nor man, nor roof |
|
|
to call her own. She fought on Stephen's Green
through that futile week of massacre of the |
|
|
Dublin Easter Rebellion and after the surrender
was gaoled along with the ringleaders. From her |
|
|
cell she heard the firing squad end the lives
of many of her comrades, and when, on May 4 |
|
|
[1916] she was sentenced to death herself, she
was perfectly happy. But the sentence was |
|
|
commuted to penal servitude for life and she
was moved to Aylesbury Prison in England. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Here Constance lived and worked as a convict,
scrubbing floors and laundering, taking every |
|
|
petty persecution and the hard work with a smile. A Duchess called to
visit her one visiting |
|
|
day but she drove her away with scornful irony,
spurning all sympathy. Constance was among |
|
|
the Irish prisoners released in 1917. She was
given an overwhelming reception in Dublin when |
|
|
she arrived in midsummer and almost immediately
she was received into the Catholic Church. |
|
|
She went to work with De Valera and the
reorganised Sinn Fein and Volunteers, who had |
|
|
grown to the proportions of a national army.
She was busy campaigning against Lloyd George's |
|
|
Irish conscription issue when she was included
amongst those rounded up in 1918 for alleged |
|
|
complicity in a treasonable plot with Germany -
out of which Sir Roger Casement was hanged |
|
|
for high treason [3 August 1916]. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'She spent a year in Holloway Gaol, but was
released in time to be appointed Secretary for |
|
|
Labour in De Valera's first cabinet declared on
April 2 1919. [She was only the second female |
|
|
to hold a Cabinet position in Europe, the first
being Alexandra Kollantai [1872-1952], People's |
|
|
Commissar for Social Welfare under Lenin].
Casimir turned up again, but stayed only a short |
|
|
while. By the time he got back to Poland
Constance was in gaol again, this time in the Cork |
|
|
female prison under a four months' sentence for
a seditious platform speech in Mallow. When |
|
|
Constance emerged again from prison, Michael
Collins was organising his army. All through the |
|
|
winter of 1919and the autumn of 1920 she was
harried by British agents from pillar to post - a |
|
|
woman of 52, living in disguises, carrying on
her work as Secretary for Labour, always on the |
|
|
run, making decisions that were held as law
throughout Southern Ireland regardless of English |
|
|
authority. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'However, it was as a sniper that Constance
shone in the time of bloody murder and massacre. |
|
|
She engaged, on one occasion, an English sniper
for two hours from the tops of adjoining |
|
|
buildings. In September 1920 she was
re-arrested and sentenced to hard labour for |
|
|
|
treasonable practices. When she came out of
Mountjoy Gaol in July 1921, the Black and Tan |
|
|
terror of the Anglo-Irish war was over. Lloyd
George and Michael Collins had come to terms, |
|
|
and the Irish Free State was born. But there
were many like De Valera and Constance |
|
|
|
Markievicz to criticise the terms of the
treaty. She went off to Paris and then to America, |
|
|
addressing meetings and enlisting sympathy and
aid for the new republic. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'By the time she returned to Ireland, Irishman
was fighting Irishman as to who would now |
|
|
administer the country. Constance was soon in
the thick of it. Once again Constance was |
|
|
arrested - this time for speaking from a lorry
urging the release of the imprisoned anti- |
|
|
|
Treatyites. In a Dublin prison camp she went on
a hunger strike along with others. When two |
|
|
of them died, the strike was called off, and
within a few months the Treatyites had achieved |
|
|
military ascendancy. Released, Constance
returned to her Fianna boys and bought a flivver |
|
|
in which she charged about the countryside like
an Irish Boadicea. She continued to dabble in |
|
|
politics and in the 1927 election won back her
old seat. Living among the poor, she became |
|
|
softer, gentler and recovered some of her
beauty in proportion to her loss of assertiveness. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'At the end of June 1927, she was driven to
hospital by pain she had secretly endured for |
|
|
months fearful lest it be cancer. She insisted
on going to the poor ward and that none of her |
|
|
friends be told, but after two operations and a
relapse her critical condition was made known. |
|
|
Summoned by a broadcast appeal, Maeve, Casimir
and Stanislaus, her stepson, were gathered |
|
|
around her bed on July 15 in time to see her
die - a rash, headstrong, perhaps misguided, but |
|
|
gallant woman.' |
