Piper leads 1916 tribute march

A PIPER led a symbolic march by over 100 people, including relatives of the 1916 Rising leaders and politicians, through Dublin city centre yesterday to commemorate those that died during the Rebellion.

Among those attending the event were TDs Maureen O’Sullivan and Sean Haughey, as well as Dublin city councillors Larry O’Toole and Dermot Lacey.

The group paraded from the GPO to 16 Moore Street, where the surrender order was signed by the rebellion leadership 94 years ago.
