NOEL LEMASS with an unsurpassable record of IRISH VALOUR has been brutally murdered by agents of the "Free" State. The mangled body of this Republican Patriot has been found on the lonely hillside in such a shocking condition as goes to prove that the victim was, before death, subjected to diabolical torture. Why was Noel Lemass murdered? Because he refused to violate his oath of allegiance to the Irish Republic. Because he refused to "be faithful to King George of England." Because he refused his support to the "Free" State Government, and thus helped to prevent Ireland from becoming a mockery in the eyes of the other nations. That is why Noel Lemass has been tortured to death. Electors of South Dublin show your disapproval of all such hellish acts by recording your VOTE FOR MICHAEL O'MULLANE the SINN FEIN CANDIDATE, who stands for the principles of TONE, EMMET, PEARSE, MACSWINEY, BRUGHA, MELLOWS and NOEL LEMASS. Published and issued by JOSEPH CLARKE, T.C., Agent for MICHAEL O'MULLANE. Committee Rooms, 25 Aungier Street.
