He travelled using the alias James Power and was hoping to start a new life in South Africa.

We know their dream; enough
To know they dreamed and are dead;
And what if excess of love
Bewildered them till they died?
I write it out in a verse—
MacDonagh and MacBride
And Connolly and Pearse
Now and in time to be,
Wherever green is worn,
Are changed, changed utterly:
A terrible beauty is born. W.B. Yeats,

On this evening 103 years ago these 1916 leaders were spending their last hours on earth. Joseph Plunkett famously married Grace Gifford. Willie Pearse had been brought the previous night to Kilmainham as the British wanted to shoot him alongside his brother Pádraig but his detail was late. Edward Daly from Limerick and Michael O'Hanrahan from Wexford were also executed on the 4th May 1916. Always remembered. R.I.P.
