Caption
In May 1922, hundreds of nationalists were arrested in Northern Ireland. Many, including Sean Nethercott, were later interned on the Argenta Prison Ship. While interned, Sean Nethercott sent this postcard to his future wife, Mollie Pigott. Mollie was employed as a cook by R.M. Walker of Fort Lodge, Enniskillen.
