Smith Christopher | MSP34REF2374 | c/o Mr Brennan, 50 Smithfield, Dublin | No | Anti |
As a 15-year-old in 1918, he was a member of the Glencullen unit of the Irish Volunteers in South County Dublin under the command of Andrew McDonnell. By 1919 he was a member of the Blackrock Company, Irish Volunteers and stored and looked after his Company’s arms and equipment in his place of employment. He let 12 members of his Company to regularly sleep in his workplace without his employer’s knowledge or consent. Attached to E Company, 6 Battalion, Dublin Brigade, IRA under the command of Mick Chadwick and Joe Flanagan he took part in a number of IRA operations and general activity during the War of Independence (January 1919 – July 1921) including: armed patrols; road blocking; arms-raids and active duty during attacks on Cabinteely Barracks, Dundrum Barracks and Dún Laoghaire Naval Base. He was arrested on the 11th of June 1921 on his way to take up position in the “Merrion Ambush”. He escaped from Mountjoy Jail, Dublin in November 1921 with Paddy Rigney; G. Davis; T. Keegan; Liam Troy and J. O'Toole. In the Truce Period he was attached to the 1 Battalion, South Dublin Brigade, IRA under the command of Tom Cassidy before being transferred in March 1922 to C Company, 2 Battalion, Dublin Brigade under the command of Tom Burke. He did full-time guard duty for two weeks at 44 Parnell Square, Dublin which was being used by General Headquarters (GHQ) staff before taking up work with the Port and Docks Board. Taking the anti-Treaty side in the Civil War (June 1922 – May 1923), during the fighting in Dublin in June/July 1922 he took part in the capture of Bridgeman’s Hotel, O’Connell Street during which one man was killed and another Volunteer Jimmy Brennan lost his arm. He also took part in the capture of the National Bank and the occupation of Healy’s public house, Marlborough Street. In July 1922, plans were made in the home of Tom Burke on North Summer Street to organise a rescue mission of IRA GHQ staff held in Mountjoy Jail. The imprisoned staff suggested tunnelling under the prison, Captain Frank Daly sourced the necessary tools and equipment for this task. From a house in Glengarriff Parade, IRA engineer Sean MacEntee stated that after 30 hours of digging, the group had “succeeded in taking up the floor of the kitchen, sinking a shaft which would have been deep enough to allow a tunnel to pass safely under the prison wall, the foundations of the house and ultimately the deep underground curtain wall”. However, it is claimed on file that the 11 IRA men were surprised and arrested by a large group of National Army forces under the command of Joseph O’Reilly who surrounded the house and street. Christopher Smith was interned in Kilmainham Jail Dublin and Gormanston Camp County Meath where he managed to escape from in September 1922. He applied and was granted a wound pension under the Army Pensions Act. He claimed for deafness and severe pains in his ears, head and throat as a result of the beating he received in Oriel House in January 1923. | ||||
