VALIANT O’DUFFY
HOLDS HIS LIFE CHEAPLY — — “MOST THEY CAN DO IS SHOOT ME” LONDON, October 14. General O’Duffy was enthusiastically welcomed at Cork. Civic Guards surrounded the hotel where the Blue Shirts were meeting. General O’Duffy disclosed that a parish priest warned him that arrangements were made to ambush him at Tralee, so General O’Duffy used a new and misleading car number and got through safely. He added, referring to lhe meeting at Bandon to-morrow: “I am told I shall not be allowed to go. They won’t intimidate me. I hold my life as cheaply as that,” at which tie snapped his fingers. “The most they can do is to shoot mo. 1 do not believe they have courage enough for it except when tho numbers are a hundred to one.”
