clubmen agreed on this afterward
They struck and tore and scratched.
From accounts of the battle. the
three women—all of them middle-
aged and slight and ill attired»—
caused more damage than all their
male companions. The Sinn Feiners
might have forced their Way into
the. interior of the club and reached
the balconies and the flags but for
the arrival of three policemen. ‘
The police used their clubs and
threw invaders out of the house.
Faces were bruised by fists and backs
were pounded by clubs. And the men
inside also nursed their bruises. Mr.
Minton was the most serious casualty. .
His nose and lip were bleeding. and l
he wore a bandage on his face when i
he talked with reporters later in the
day.
