On this day in Irish history, Easter Rising signatory, Irish writer and poet, and newlywed Joseph Mary Plunkett was executed at Kilmainham Gaol for his role in the Easter Rising. Fellow leaders Edward Daly, Michael O’Hanrahan and William Pearse were executed along with him. Plunkett’s glasses remain at Kilmainham to this day. #kilmainhamgaol #easterrising #easterrising1916 #grace #irelandspatriotdead #josephmaryplunkett #onthisday #doomedlovers #irishhistory #easterrisingexecutions #commemoration #irishhistorynerd #readmorepoetry
