Career
Hubert Tully was 26 years old, and was a native of County Roscommon. He was a Foreman at Galway Railway Station. He was a contact of Sean Broderick.
Broderick was the Officer Commanding, 4th Battalion, Galway Brigade of the Irish Republican Army (Ireland Republican Army) during the Irish War of Independence.
On the night of 11 May 1921, a party of Black and Tans called at the house. They were looking for Tully, and seemed to have information provided by an informer.
They asked him his name, and after he replied, they shot him a number of times. At this stage he was still alive, so they propped him up and shot him in the head
