Peter Paul Galligan joined the Irish Republican Brotherhood in 1910 and the Irish Volunteers in 1913. In 1916 he helped lead the Easter Rising in Enniscorthy. On the rebels' surrender he was imprisoned in the harshest of conditions in Dartmoor prison. Galligan's story also shows the experience of the War of Independence on the ground in his native Cavan. In the ensuing Civil War, he stayed neutral but was in contact with the Anti-Treaty commanders. This is a fascinating story of a little known but significant contributor to Irish history.
