After some years at sea he joined the British Civil Service and was stationed in London (where he taught in the Gaelic League during his spare time) until 1914, when he resigned and returned to Ireland to devote the rest of his life to writing.One of the few 20th century writers in Irish to catch the popular imagination, he died in 1928 in the Richmond Hospital, Dublin, leaving as his sole material possessions his pipe, some tobacco, and an apple.
