(John Mitchel may be the man seated. According to contemporary reports, while Mitchel was due to deliver a lecture "On Tipperary" in Cork's Theatre Royal on 26 February 1875, he had helped from the stage "looking very ill". John Dillon (son of John B. Dillon Young Irelander) read the text of Mitchel's lecture to the audience.)
