FREE STATE SOLDIERS! A great number of you are true Irishmen at heart. You see now how Collins has tricked you. You have shot down Cathai Brusha in defence of that part of the British Entire called the Irish Free State, which is (never) to be. Come out from the Free State arm, at the first opportunity, and renew your allegiance to the Old Love. Otherwise, your very graves will be surrounded forever with disnorour.
