Opis: Nearing Jordan - Lucy Henry

Excerpt from Nearing Jordan: Being the Third and Last Volume of Sixty Years in the Wilderness

My first visit to Ireland was paid at a critical moment in its history. The Centenary of O'Connell befell on the 5th of August, 1875. I was despatched to Dublin as the Special Correspondent of the Daily News with the mission of describing the proceedings. They proved exceedingly lively. Early in their progress the fissure apparently inevitable in the field of Irish politics presented itself. The Church, grateful for the successful efforts of the Liberator, desired to give the celebration a predominantly religious direction. The National Party, incited by their Members, at the time coming riotously to the front in the House of Commons, were not inclined to let slip a rare opportunity of bringing to the fore the demand for Home Rule. The accepted representative of the latter party was Isaac Butt.
