LAST 1 HISII FBEE STATE
LEADER ASSASSINATED
(Continued from page 1.)
back from the very pier from which
he was to have embarked.
Collins as ho was pictured toward
the end of his career, was a loose
coupled, black haired man of impres-
sive stature with a face of a fighter
in which every now and then there
smoldered the eyes of a dreamer. He
was a farmer's son and much of that
enabled him to sway his fellows and
v become their leader he acquried by
painful study and self teaching. As a
boy he passed a civil service examina-
tion for coypist and went straight to
Ivondon, working in the Savings liank
Department of the post office. No
one dreamed then that in his early
don, with other Irish statesmen, to
negotiate that hard-fought treaty,
wrestling from a situation seemingly
hopeless the free state.
Collins found his first clerkship irk-
some and witched to a small job in
a stock broker's office that at least
gave him wider contacts und some
little glimpse of how the world's fin-
ancial business was done. His next
job in Ixmdon was with the American
Hanking Company, a firm which he
quit toward the end of 191*5, to re-
turn to Ireland and cast his lot with
the Sinn Fein, already meditating that
daring stroke that crystallzed in the
Easter week insurrection of 1916.
Seized by the British with hundreds
^ of other prisoners, he was turned out
when the Christmas amnesty procla-
mation came because until then he had
l>een so small a ploter that no one
regarded him as worth holding.
There followed two years, in which
the world heard little pr nothing of
Collins, but during which his soul was
becoming fired with an implac-
able mission of service to his own
land, and his associates in the tumul-
tuous meetings and plannings and
plottings and counterplottings of the
revolutionists in iwhlch they 'were
learning more and more to trust him
' and to rely upon him.
I Then he became Minister of Finance
j in the Sinn Fein Government, a posi-
! tion that enabled him to place him-
self in the very top rank of the Sinn
Fein movement. Even then, when he
went to London, the eyes of the Bri-
tish, of his own people and of the
1 world were on De Valera and not on
| his aid in those prolonged Downing
street conferences. But among those
j who watched from the inside the pro-
gress of those tortuous negotiations,
it has been said that it was Collins
j who played the most conspicous
I role.
I Collins came back across the chan-
i nel to take up the cudgels for the
; treaty, to fight it and to plead for it,
and in the end he and his followers
I won. Even then there was no rest.
I There came the battles with Ulster,
| which filled the news in the early
days of the Free State, and then the
j bloody outbreaks of the irreconcil-
j ables determined to carry the day for
complete independence at any cost.
