Bhásaigh Ardmhéara Chorcaí, Traolach Mac Suibhne, ar stailc ocrais i bpríosún sa mBreatain ar an 25 Deireadh Fómhair 1920, 100 bliain sa lá inniu. Bhí a bhás cinniúnach i gCogadh na Saoirse. Inniu ar an gclár labhróidh a gharmhac Cathal MacSuibhne Brugha faoi na cuimhní atá aige ar scéal a sheanathar, a thuiscint ina óige ar an gcaoi go bhfuair sé bás, agus na cúiseanna a bhí aige. Labhróidh sé freisin faoi oidhreacht Mhic Suibhne. Is í Máirín Ní Ghadhra a chuirfidh an clár i láthair.
