A permit to 'pass out of town' for two Misses Fentons (probably sisters) issued by
the Irish Republican Army on Sunday 30 April 1916. The pass was written on the back
of a Times Braces advertisement. The pass was likely issued on the orders of Seamus
Doyle, a lieutenant in the Enniscorthy battalion of the Irish Volunteers and one of
the men active in Enniscorthy during the Easter Rising, one of the few places outside
Dublin to see any military action.
