Description
The hidden hand, 1883. This cartoon shows an Irish anarchist, armed with knife and pistol, surreptitiously accepting a bag of gold. This is a reference to the murder of the new Chief Secretary for Ireland and his colleague who died after being attacked in Dublin's Phoenix Park. A number of men had been arrested and one of them, James Farrell, became an informer. He gave details of a number of planned outrages, amongst them the intended murder of the previous Chief Secretary, William Forster. From Punch, or the London Charivari, March 3, 1883.
