St Patrick Day Celebrations Sweep Across Britain and Ireland
Loyalists across the United Kingdom mark St Patrick’s Day with shamrock imagery and green regalia. Queen’s sprig at Windsor, curfew bells, Irish flags, and shamrock fashion spread through London. Dublin’s Trooping the Colors, Irish guards rumor, and city ceremonies reflect broad participation despite some nationalist resistance. Separately, Moody and McBride file notice of dismissal in the Alva Brandon vs. Minneapolis Threshing Machine suit filed in U S court.
