The Irish Position in British and in Republican North America: A Letter to the Editors of the Irish Press Irrespective of Party (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Irish Position in British and in Republican North America: A Letter to the Editors of the Irish Press Irrespective of Party
In What I have to say, I own' at once I bear the testimony of a minority only of the Irish in N orth America. But the minority With Whom my views coincide is upt so small as some here and in Ireland may imagine. Many are silent from a constitutional distaste of controversy - many from a weak desire for their own personal ease and tranquillity - many from downright disgust of all things Irish, of a polemical sort. But our minority includes in its numerous ranks, so far as I know, all the Catholic Bishops, and a vast majority of the Priests of Irish origin in North America includes a majority of all our well-toldo settled agriculturists our men iof business, and professional men; includes all the influential and wealthy Irish Protestant population includes almost all, I ob serve, of those who have won on this side the Atlan tic any distinction in literary or politico-literary pur suits. The voice of such a minority, not rashly raised, will not; I am satisfied, be lightly regarded; and of this voice, I dare to assert, I shall be found in this letter the faithful interpreter.

Product Description:
Excerpt from The Irish Position in British and in Republican North America: A Letter to the Editors of the Irish Press Irrespective of Party Many friends have desired to have this letter in a more convenient shape, than the newspaper form in which it first appeared, a fortnight ago, and I have great pleasure in complying with their wishes. Some short notes on the antecedents of the Irish in British America will be found in the Appendix. The subject would bear very considerable amplification.
