LIVED ONCE BURIED TWICE

In 1894, failing health caused him to go to Arizona and California, where he died. Some years after, with the aid of Irish sympathisers in the United States, his body was brought back to Ireland. His funeral, held on 26 September 1903 at the Catholic Pro-Cathedral, Dublin, was attended by 6000 people, including members of the trade guilds, clerics, politicians, members of the nationalist Gaelic Athletic Association and students. This Beautiful Mausoleum Is His Final Resting Place. #mausoleum #cemetery #cemeterywandering
