Down. Carney was a key figure in the Irish Citizen Army and served as James Connolly's personal secretary. During the 1916 Easter Rising, she was famously the only woman present at the seizure of the GPO at the outset, reportedly with a typewriter and a revolver. Her unwavering commitment to Irish independence and socialist causes led to multiple imprisonments throughout her life, including after the Rising and for her opposition to the Anglo-Irish Treaty.",1789333838542]
