Yeah. They'd have found another kind of immigrants to abuse like they are through immigration today.

Is that an Irish paper? What was the 'wreck Ulster' bill they're talking about, was it a proposal to give Ulster to the Free State, or are they just talking about splitting it like actually happened? | r/100yearsago | comment | r/100yearsago | 2024-03-08 |
Interesting. | r/100yearsago | comment | r/100yearsago | 2024-03-08 |
No an English one. Ireland had been partitioned in 1922, the dispute at this point was about the boundary between Ulster and the Free State, where the border was going to be.

*The Marriage Cheat* is now a lost film. The other four still exist and (being in the public domain) are avaliable on YouTube for free.
Considering how many silent films are lost, four out of five still existing is actually a pretty good ratio. | r/100yearsago | comment | r/100yearsago | 2024-02-08 |
I hope Joesph Piraino lived long enough to see the 1950’s Ten Commandments film. I think he would have really enjoyed it.
I looked up at that Manslaughter movie and the Wikipedia article makes it sound so wild for that era. | r/100yearsago | comment | r/100yearsago | 2024-02-08 |
I think there is typo in Miss Anna Belle Boyce's response. It should read "Beauty not wealth shouldn't ***prevent*** punishment for crime." Who should I contact to correct the mistake? | r/100yearsago | comment | r/100yearsago | 2024-02-08 |

Helen Biederman seems to have an interesting family. And it’s a bit more interesting that she’s a nurse.

As soon as I saw the title, I knew Birth of a Nation would get a mention. The sheer number of people that saw that film...

I love wordplay and " moving picture " is one of the only triple entendre's i know of, maybe even the only quadruple entendre.
A touching/emotional photo.
A photo of someone moving house, loading the u-haul trucks.
Someone walking with a photo in his hands.

I'm not fully sure about this one. The film claims it takes place at Celtic Park (Glasgow), but the sources I'm using for the date claim it was at Croke Park, and part of the Tailteann Games.
