-
-<p class='c009'><span class='sc'>Dear Sir</span>: The annual meeting and dinner of the American-Irish
-Historical Society will take place at the Hotel Brunswick, Boylston
-Street, Boston, Mass., on Thursday evening, January 24, 1907.</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>A committee will be on duty at the hotel all day to receive members
-and guests, especially those coming from other cities and states,
-and render them such assistance as may be desired. A general reception
-will take place in the evening from 5 to 6 o’clock, upon the
-conclusion of which the annual meeting of the Society will be held.
-The annual dinner will be at 7.30 p. m.</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>This will be the tenth anniversary of the Society, and it is eminently
-appropriate that its celebration should take place in Boston,
-the city where the organization was founded. These annual gatherings
-of the Society are always of very great interest, bring together
-a distinguished company, and are long remembered by those participating.
-The forthcoming event will be no exception to the rule.</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>Tickets to the dinner are now ready at $3.50 each. They can be
-obtained by addressing Mr. M. J. Jordan, 42 Court Street, Boston,
-Mass. Make checks payable to the American-Irish Historical Society
-and forward to Mr. Jordan at the address given.</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>Members are at liberty to invite personal guests. The evening
-reception committee will include the following Boston members of
-the Society: Capt. D. J. Gorman, Bernard J. Joyce, Michael H.
-Cox, Patrick M. Keating, J. W. Fogarty, P. A. O’Connell, Charles
-V. Dasey, T. B. Fitzpatrick, P. H. Powers, John E. Gilman, Hon.
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_8'>8</span>Joseph H. O’Neil, W. B. Sullivan, F. L. Dunne, P. B. Magrane
-and James W. Kenney.</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>We hope that all who possibly can will be with us on this occasion,
-as it is desired to make it a red-letter event in the history of the
-Society.</p>

-<p class='c011'>The event was a very successful one and was participated in by a
-large gathering. Owing to the unavoidable absence of Admiral
-McGowan, the president-general of the Society, the business session
-was presided over by Mr. M. F. Dooley of Providence, R. I., treasurer-general
-of the organization.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. T. H. Murray, secretary-general of the Society, was present,
-but owing to illness was assisted in his duties by Mr. P. F. Magrath
-of Binghamton, N. Y.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The reading of the minutes of the preceding annual meeting was
-omitted.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The annual report of the secretary-general was presented, accepted
-and adopted, as was that of the treasurer-general. Both
-reports showed the Society to be in an excellent condition.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Several new members were admitted to the organization.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The annual election of officers then took place, the result being
-as given on pages <a href='#Page_5'>5</a> and <a href='#Page_6'>6</a> of this volume. The business session
-was then dissolved, and after an interval the company proceeded to
-the annual dinner.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Thomas B. Fitzpatrick of Boston, the well-known merchant,
-presided. On his right and left were seated the Hon. John Hannan,
-mayor of Ogdensburg, N. Y.; the Hon. Charles E. Gorman, Providence,
-R. I.; the Hon. Joseph H. O’Neil, president of the Federal
-Trust Co., Boston; Mr. M. F. Dooley, of the Union Trust Co.,
-Providence, R. I.; the Hon. Joseph F. O’Connell, congressman-elect,
-Boston; Mr. D. H. Tierney, Waterbury, Conn., and the Hon.

-
-<p class='c011'>The after-dinner speeches were along the Society’s line of work
-and were of a most interesting nature. In his opening remarks,
-Mr. Fitzpatrick told of the early efforts of the Irish in Boston, and
-how their labors were an inspiration to the men and women of today.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Hon. Charles E. Gorman of Providence, R. I., followed the
-toastmaster with a story on the bravery and chivalry of the Irish
-race. The early conditions in New England, and Rhode Island
-in particular, were outlined, after which he spoke on the struggles
-of the Irish to get a footing and show their spirit. He paid a
-stirring tribute to the work accomplished by the Celts and the Teutons
-and how their spirit of liberty managed to overcome difficulties.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Hon. P. T. Barry of Chicago was well received when he arose
-to speak on the part the Irish took in the development of Chicago,
-the West and the great Northwest. His historical data was particularly
-interesting from the time of Chevalier McCarthy’s advent to
-the present. Congressman-elect Joseph F. O’Connell of Boston
-spoke on “The Part Played by the Irish in the Early History of
-Our Country.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. A. B. Sutherland of Lawrence, Mass., who is of Scottish

-and particularly of the spirit of liberty given to the Scotch by Irish

-
-<p class='c011'>Rev. John J. Lyons illustrated how the Irish had done magnificent

-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_11'>11</span>The Hon. Daniel O’Connor of Australia electrified the gathering

-
-<p class='c011'>Before the meeting adjourned the Society paid a tribute to President

- </div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c009'>At the annual meeting of the American-Irish Historical Society,
-held in Boston, Mass., on the evening of January 24, 1907, the following
-minute was unanimously adopted:</p>
-
-<p class='c009'><span class='sc'>Whereas</span>, The American-Irish Historical Society has learned of
-the excellent work of our distinguished fellow-member, the Hon.
-Theodore Roosevelt, as embodied in his article on “The Ancient

-action should be taken to show our appreciation of the study and
-research exhibited in the able contribution mentioned, it is</p>
-
-<p class='c009'><i>Resolved</i>, therefore, that in the opinion of this Society a splendid
-example is set by President Roosevelt in finding the time and
-opportunity, in the midst of his many duties and responsibilities, to
-devote attention to a subject dear to us. We heartily congratulate
-him upon the results he has so ably exemplified and set forth as the
-outcome of his researches into early Irish history.<a id='r1' /><a href='#f1' class='c014'><sup>[1]</sup></a></p>

-<h3 class='c006'><span class='sc'>Extracts from Letters Received.</span></h3>
-
-<p class='c015'>The following are extracts from letters of regret:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From Mr. John J. Rooney, New York City: “My Dear Mr. Murray:
-I am exceedingly sorry I cannot be present at the American-Irish
-Historical Society dinner tomorrow night. I have a heavy
-case in court and cannot get away. Kindly express my regrets to
-all. Sincerely, John J. Rooney.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From the Hon. Felix Carbray, M. R. I. A., Quebec, Canada: “I
-duly received the notice for the annual meeting and dinner. I
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_12'>12</span>deeply regret that distance and heavy business cares will make it
-unable for me to be present. I hope you will have a large gathering
-and a successful celebration.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From the Hon. Patrick J. McCarthy, mayor of Providence, R. I.:
-“Dear Sir: Your letter in regard to the dinner of the American-Irish
-Historical Society received, and I regret to state that owing
-to previous engagements in Providence it will be impossible for me
-to attend. Wishing you a successful meeting, I remain, respectfully
-yours, Patrick J. McCarthy.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From the Hon. Patrick J. Ryan, mayor of Elizabeth, N. J.:
-“Many thanks for your circular letter announcing that the American-Irish
-Historical Society is to have a reception and dinner in
-Boston on Thursday, January 24, next. I appreciate the notice I
-assure you, and regret to say that I will not be able to attend owing
-to a press of other matters here. I hope and trust the meeting will
-be a success in every way.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From the Hon. Franklin M. Danaher, Albany, N. Y.: “Dear Mr.
-Murray: I have your notice of the annual meeting and dinner of
-the American-Irish Historical Society in Boston on Thursday, January
-24, 1907. I have always been able to attend the annual meetings
-of the Society because they happened in New York coincident
-with my presence there on official business. Whether I can be in
-Boston on January 24th is somewhat problematical, but I will do
-so if I can. Do you expect President-General McGowan?”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From Mr. Edward J. McGuire, New York City: “My Dear Mr.
-Murray: It seems ungracious not to attend the Historical Society’s
-dinner at Boston on Thursday evening, you Yankees have been so
-generous and loyal in coming to New York, but for me it is absolutely
-impossible to be present. I am engaged in a number of most
-important and engrossing professional matters, and I have in addition
-but recently returned from a week’s absence in the South. I
-am sure you will make my excuses. I hope that you are entirely
-recovered from your illness and that everything prospers with you
-and the Society. With kindest regards, Very truly yours, Edward
-J. McGuire.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From the Rt. Rev. Mgr. Dennis J. O’Connell, M. A., S. T. D.,
-rector of the Catholic University of America, Washington, D. C.:
-“Mr. T. H. Murray, Secretary-General, Sea View, Mass. My Dear
-Sir: I desire to thank you very cordially for the notice you sent me
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_13'>13</span>regarding the annual dinner, and to say at the same time with sincere
-regret that I am afraid I cannot assist, for the following day,
-January the 25th, is the feast of our Faculty of Theology at which
-I must be present. Wishing all a pleasant time, I remain, Very sincerely
-yours, D. J. O’Connell.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From the Hon. Edward A. Moseley, Washington, D. C.: “I
-regret very much that it is impossible for me to attend the annual
-meeting of the American-Irish Historical Society. I really wish
-that the Society would have its next meeting in Washington; I believe
-it would be a good plan from every point of view. I had
-fully intended to get to the coming meeting on the 24th, but I went
-to Boston over the holidays, and the result is that I have as bad a
-cold as I ever had in my life, and I am afraid to leave Washington.
-Do have the next annual meeting in Washington, and I will contribute
-in every way to make it a success, and will devote myself
-to the work. With all cordial regards, sincerely yours, E. A.
-Moseley.”</p>

-<div class='nf-center c002'>
- <div>BY JAMES JEFFREY ROCHE, LL. D., BOSTON, MASS.</div>
- </div>
-</div>
-
-<div class='footnote' id='f2'>
-<p class='c011'><a href='#r2'>2</a>. This paper appeared originally in the Boston <cite>Pilot</cite>.</p>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Irish race, both here and in the old world, has suffered so
-much in the way of misrepresentation at the hands of English and
-pro-English writers, its merits have been so minimized and its
-defects so magnified, that it is almost a hopeless task to attempt the
-refutation of even a tithe of the falsehoods.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>It is only when a writer offers an easily accessible authority for
-his statements that the general reader can take the time and trouble,
-if so disposed, to investigate the reference and verify the accuracy
-or honesty of the author who professes to have quoted truly.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Henry Cabot Lodge has written, and the <cite>Century Magazine</cite>
-has published an article on “The Distribution of Ability in the
-United States,” in which he exalts the English race at the expense
-of some others, and depreciates the Irish race, with or without malice
-prepense, in a manner which is, to say the least, remarkable.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Lodge deals in some general statements easily susceptible of
-disproof, as when he says that “there was virtually no Irish immigration
-during the colonial period, and indeed none of consequence
-until the present century was well advanced.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He offers no authority for this absurd statement; so it may be
-assumed that he ignorantly believes it true. Perhaps he also honestly
-believes in the race called “Scotch-Irish,” whom he defines as
-“descendants of the Scotch <i>and English</i> who settled in the North of
-Ireland.” Let these things pass. We are concerned only with the
-accuracy and honesty of Mr. Lodge’s quotations when he refers to a
-specific authority for facts and figures and professes to be governed
-by that authority.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In order to classify the distribution of “ability,” Mr. Lodge says
-that he “took <cite>Appleton’s Encyclopedia of American Biography</cite> in
-six volumes, one of the largest and most recent works upon the subject,
-and classified the persons mentioned therein who were citizens
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_16'>16</span>of the United States according to occupation, birthplace and race
-extraction.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Lodge says that he found the work large and laborious. We
-can confirm that statement; for we also have taken the six volumes
-of <cite>Appleton’s</cite> and have gone conscientiously through the 14,000 and
-odd names therein recorded, to see if that otherwise valuable publication
-had really given the Irish race such an astonishingly poor
-record as Mr. Lodge’s tables show. We find that it has not. We
-find that Mr. Lodge and his authority differ so astoundingly, on
-almost every point, that his deductions are absolutely worthless because
-his statements are so utterly untrue.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In the matter of quantity, <cite>Appleton’s</cite> gives to the Irish race a list
-nearly one hundred per cent greater than Mr. Lodge professes to
-have found in its pages. On the score of quality, taking Mr. Lodge’s
-own test of merit, <cite>Appleton’s</cite> gives about 300 per cent more to the
-race than Mr. Lodge accords it.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Lodge classifies race by the paternal side alone, which is
-probably fair enough for practical purposes, and says:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“In a large number of cases, especially where the extraction is not
-English, the race stock is given in the dictionary. In a still larger
-number of instances the name and the place of birth furnish unmistakable
-evidence as to race. That error should be avoided in this
-classification is not to be expected, but I am perfectly satisfied that
-the race distribution is in the main correct. Such errors as exist
-tend, I think, here as elsewhere in these statistics, to balance one
-another, and the net result is, I believe, so substantially accurate as
-to have very real value, and to throw a great deal of light on what
-we owe in the way of ability to each of the various races who settled
-the United States.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He counts as original settlers all who came to this country before
-the date of the adoption of the Constitution, A. D. 1789; those who
-came after that date are classified as “immigrants.” Taking the
-<cite>Encyclopedia</cite> as his authority, he examines the birth or race extraction
-of 14,243 persons therein named as having achieved sufficient
-distinction to deserve mention. As a result he finds that over 10,000
-of the number should be credited to the “English” race.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>It is not worth while to inquire into the accuracy of that estimate,
-since Mr. Lodge’s treatment of another race sufficiently disproves
-his claims to accuracy on any score.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_17'>17</span>In Tables “D” and “H,” covering respectively the original settlers
-and the immigrants, he gives the number of men of the Irish
-race who have achieved the distinction of a place in <cite>Appleton’s</cite>.
-Nowhere, apparently, is any allowance made either for the distinguished
-descendants of the original Irish settlers, distinguished
-or obscure themselves, nor for the distinguished children of undistinguished
-immigrants since 1789.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Charles Carroll of Carrollton is, we suppose, credited to the Irish
-of pre-Constitution days, and Thomas Addis Emmet to the “immigrant”
-class, but where does Mr. Lodge place the distinguished descendants
-of both? Where does he place the distinguished sons of
-obscure fathers, such men as Andrew Jackson and Robert Fulton?
-Certainly not among the race to which, according to <cite>Appleton</cite>, they
-belong, for they have no recognition in his “double star” table, to
-be described hereafter. Do they go to swell the ranks of the 10,000
-English or those of the mixed and mythical “Scotch-Irish”?</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>What does he do with Philip Sheridan, who being neither an
-“immigrant” nor descended from pre-Constitution ancestors, is in a
-worse case than his namesake, Philip Nolan, being a “man without
-a race?” We cannot believe that Mr. Lodge ever intended committing
-such a palpable absurdity, because if carried to its logical
-conclusion, it would apply equally to distinguished men of all races.
-Mr. Lodge himself, for all that <cite>Appleton’s</cite> tells us to the contrary,
-never had a pre-Constitution ancestor, and has, therefore, no right
-to class himself among the 10,000 “English,” as he presumably does.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Lodge has a delightfully simple method of determining the
-relative values of great men. It is by noting how much of pictorial
-glory is awarded to each in the <cite>Encyclopedia</cite>. Persons whose biographical
-sketches are not illustrated with a portrait are not counted
-in at all.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Those who have a vignette portrait are classified as “single stars.”
-The truly great, who have full-page portraits, are called “double
-stars”—of these there are 58 among the whole 14,243.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Lodge confesses that encyclopediac fame is hardly just in giving
-double star honors to William Gilmore Simms and shutting out
-Hawthorne, Poe and Lowell, but Fame is notoriously capricious of
-her favors; which is why, perhaps, such authors as John Hay, T. W.
-Parsons, Theodore Roosevelt and many others are sent pictureless
-to posterity, while Mrs. E. D. E. N. Southworth and Mrs. Ann S.
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_18'>18</span>Stephens are immortalized in becoming wood-cuts. Mr. Lodge
-himself shines as a “single-star,” as does also Mr. E. P. Roe.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>But even in his stellar classification Mr. Lodge makes a singular
-mistake, again on the wrong side of the Irish account. His “totals
-by race extraction” allow only one double star to “Irish.” Yet
-his cyclopedic authority has full-page steel engravings of the following
-six, all credited to the Irish race, without any hint of a
-mythical Scotch mixture: Chester A. Arthur, son of Rev. William
-Arthur of Antrim; John C. Calhoun, son of Patrick and grandson
-of James of Donegal; Robert Fulton, son of a Kilkenny man;
-Andrew Jackson, son of Andrew of Carrickfergus; James K. Polk,
-descendant of Irish Polk or “Pollock”; Philip H. Sheridan, race
-not mentioned but pretty well known.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Lodge is equally reckless of fact when he attempts to count
-the “single stars” of the Irish race. He finds only thirteen of these
-among the early settler class and eleven among the “immigrants”—twenty-four
-in all. Here are the names of sixty-five, given by
-<cite>Appleton’s</cite>, and not including such men of the Irish race as Lawrence
-Barrett, Lawrence and Philip Kearny, J. A. MacGahan, Commodore
-Macdonough and others, whose race is not specified in the

-persons who have held public office, but all who as reformers, agitators,
-or in any other capacity have distinguished themselves in
-public affairs.” He allows nine statesmen to the Irish in his first
-list. His authority, <cite>Appleton’s Encyclopedia</cite>, is more liberal, giving
-them no less than thirty, including seven signers of the Declaration
-of Independence.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Not to answer assertion with mere counter-assertion, we have
-compiled the following list, from <cite>Appleton’s</cite>, including only such
-names as are specifically stated to belong to the Irish race, omitting
-all that are claimed as “Scotch-Irish,” and not even counting men
-of known Irish origin who are not so described in the cyclopedia.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In so doing we purposely leave out scores of Kellys, Butlers,
-Moores, Barrys, Boyles, etc. We do not wish to claim anything
-beyond the strict letter of Mr. Lodge’s authority, <cite>Appleton’s Encyclopedia</cite>.
-For every name in the following lists given by <cite>Appleton’s</cite>
-as Irish, but possibly of remoter Scotch or English origin,
-there will be found half a dozen other names in <cite>Appleton’s</cite> of obvious
-Celtic Irish origin which are not here included because not so
-specified in the cyclopedia. We are taking Mr. Lodge’s authority
-as such, in order to show how wildly he has departed from it. Following
-is the correct list compiled from <cite>Appleton’s</cite>:</p>

-practically the correct number of names belonging to the departments

-
-<p class='c011'>It is worth noting that, if the Irish are conspicuous by their absence
-from the last named, they are gloriously prominent in the first.
-The race which has given to America, Crawford, Milmore, Kelly,

-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Lodge must plead guilty to one of two charges. Either he

-
-<p class='c011'>Prendergast’s <cite>Cromwellian Settlement of Ireland</cite> says: “Ireland
-was now like an empty hive, prepared to receive its new swarm.
-One of the earliest efforts of the government towards replanting the
-parts reserved to themselves was to turn towards the lately expatriated
-English in America. In the early part of the year 1651, when
-the country, by their own description to the Council of State, was a
-scene of unparalleled waste and ruin, the Commissioners for Ireland
-affectionately urged Mr. Harrison, then a minister of the Gospel in
-New England, to come over to Ireland, which he would find experimentally
-was a comfortable seed plot (so they said) for his labours.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_31'>31</span>“On his return to New England, it was hoped he might encourage
-those whose hearts the Lord should stir up to look back again towards
-their native country, to return and plant in Ireland. There
-they should have freedom of worship, and the (mundane) advantages
-of convenient lands, fit for husbandry, in healthful air, near
-to maritime towns or secure places, with such encouragement from
-the state as should demonstrate that it was their chief care to plant
-Ireland with a godly seed and generation.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“Mr. Harrison was unable to come; but some movement appears
-to have been made towards a plantation from America, as proposals
-were received in January, 1655, for the planting of the town of
-Sligo and lands thereabouts, with families from New England; and
-lands on the Mile line, together with the two little islands called
-Oyster Island and Coney Island (containing 200 acres), were leased
-for one year, from 10th of April, 1655, for the use of such English
-families as should come from New England in America, in order to
-their transplantation.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“In 1656 several families, arriving from New England at Limerick,
-had the excise of tobacco brought with them for the use of
-themselves and families remitted; and other families in May and
-July of that year, who had come over from New England to plant,
-were received as tenants of state lands near Garristown, in the
-county of Dublin, about fifteen miles north of the capital.”</p>

- <h2 class='c004'>THE AFFAIR AT FORT WILLIAM AND MARY.</h2>
-</div>
-
-<div class='nf-center-c0'>
-<div class='nf-center c002'>
- <div>BY THE REV. THOMAS GREGORY.</div>
- </div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>Just before sunset on the afternoon of December 13, 1774, Paul
-Revere jumped from his foam-covered steed in front of a house in
-Durham, New Hampshire, rushed in and informed its owner, Major
-John Sullivan, that two regiments of British regulars were about to
-march from Boston to occupy Portsmouth and the fort in its harbor.
-In an instant Sullivan made up his mind as to what it was his
-duty to do, and within less than two hours he had gathered his force
-and was ready for business.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The party, sixteen in number, boarded an unwieldy, sloop-rigged
-old craft and darted off down the river to Portsmouth. It was a
-clear, cold moonlight night, and presently the crude masonry of old
-Fort William and Mary loomed up in the distance, reminding them
-of the fact that they were close on to their quarry. When within a
-rod or so of the shore their vessel grounded in the shallow water,
-and in silence they waded to land, mounted the fort, surprised the
-garrison and found themselves victorious without the loss of a man
-or even of a drop of blood.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Securing the prisoners, the patriots at once broke into the magazine,
-where they found one hundred pounds of powder. The powder,
-along with one hundred stand of small arms, was put aboard
-of their craft and taken back to Durham, where it was buried under
-the pulpit of the old meeting-house in front of Major Sullivan’s
-house.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Six months later the battle of Bunker Hill came off, and it was
-this same powder, captured by Major Sullivan at Fort William
-and Mary, that enabled the Americans to kill so many of the British
-in that historic encounter. Powder was exceedingly scarce in the
-patriot army, and Sullivan, anticipating that such might be the case,
-filled “old John Demerett’s ox-cart” with the powder he had buried
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_34'>34</span>under Parson Adams’ pulpit and sent it over the sixty-odd miles of
-rocky road to Boston, where it was destined to do such good service
-in the cause of liberty.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>It was the news of Sullivan’s capture of Fort William and Mary
-that precipitated the Revolution. After such a daring deed Lexington
-was a foregone conclusion. In the words of another, “Sullivan
-was the first man in active rebellion against the British government,
-and he drew with him the province he lived in.” In an address on
-the history of this part of New Hampshire, Rev. Quint, of Dover,
-referring to the attack on the fort, said: “The daring character of
-the assault cannot be over-estimated. It was an organized investment
-of a royal fortress where the king’s flag was flying and where
-the king’s garrison met them with muskets and artillery. It was
-four months before Lexington, and Lexington was resistance to
-attack, while this was deliberate assault.”</p>

- </div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>Dominick Lynch was a member of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick,
-New York, as early as 1786; a prominent merchant; was of
-the firm Lynch &amp; Stoughton, New York. A biographical sketch of
-Mr. Lynch was published some years ago in the <cite>American Catholic
-Historical Researches</cite>. It was written by Richard H. Clarke,
-LL. D., and treated the subject at great length. According to Dr.
-Clarke, Mr. Lynch was born in Galway, Ireland, in 1754.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He married his cousin, Jane Lynch, a native of Dublin. Shortly
-after, Dominick and his wife went to reside at Bruges, in Flanders,
-where he established a commercial house, a branch of his father’s
-in Galway. He amassed a handsome fortune in Bruges and three
-of his children were born there. While engaged in business in
-Bruges he became acquainted with Don Thomas Stoughton, a merchant
-having commercial relations with France and Spain. Eventually,
-Lynch and Stoughton formed a co-partnership for the purpose
-of conducting business in America. The articles of co-partnership
-were dated March 10, 1783; the capital agreed upon was
-£7,500, of which amount Lynch furnished £5,000 and Stoughton,
-£2,500.</p>

-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_35'>35</span>Stoughton, in pursuance of the agreement, came to New York
-City and opened the business house of Lynch &amp; Stoughton. Lynch
-visited London and Galway, and in 1785 sailed for America, reaching
-New York June 20 of that year. Stoughton was a bachelor,
-and Mr. and Mrs. Lynch, their three children and a number of servants,
-went to reside with him. Later, Stoughton was made Spanish
-consul at New York. Eventually, differences broke out between the
-partners, the firm was dissolved and each member sued the other.
-These two suits in chancery, Stoughton <i>vs.</i> Lynch and Lynch <i>vs.</i>
-Stoughton, were tried before Chancellor Kent and after pending for
-over twenty years, were finally decided adverse to Lynch.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The latter had to pay Stoughton, besides fines and costs, $25,076.
-After the dissolution of the firm, Lynch retired in affluent circumstances
-largely on account of the wealth he had amassed in Bruges.
-It was said of him in New York that “he dispensed a bountiful and
-refined hospitality.” He was an earnest Catholic, gave liberally of
-his means to forward church work and was one of the representative
-men who signed the “Catholic Address” to George Washington. It
-is said of Lynch that upon arriving in New York, in 1785, he
-brought a large amount of specie with him and the advent of a man
-with such extensive financial resources created quite a stir. He was
-at one time offered, for what would today be considered a ridiculously
-small sum, a farm of twenty acres near City Hall, New York.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He declined to buy the property, but with the same amount of
-money purchased 697 acres near Fort Stanwix on the Mohawk
-River. Before the year 1800 he had increased his holdings there
-to about 2,000 acres. As early as 1796, he laid this property out
-in village lots, and called the place Lynchville. Later, he changed
-the name to Rome, perhaps in honor of the Eternal City. Between
-the years 1800 and 1820, he built a woolen mill, a cotton factory
-and a saw-mill at Rome, which place he had founded. It is said
-that the southeast corner of Fort Stanwix was levelled to make room
-for a mansion erected by him. In 1797, Dominick purchased an
-estate in West Chester County, N. Y., bordering Long Island
-Sound. Here he built a magnificent stone residence after the style
-of chateaus he had seen in Flanders. This was his home for the
-remainder of his life. He continued to dispense “munificent hospitality,
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_36'>36</span>took a leading part in the social events of the metropolis,
-and manifested to the end a zealous and active zeal in the growth
-of the Catholic church in New York.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He died in 1825 and his widow in 1849. At his death his children
-were thirteen in number, <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">i. e.</span></i>—James, Anastasia, Anthony, Dominick,
-Alexander, Margaret, Jasper, Jane, Henry, Harriet, Louisa,
-Edward and William. By the marriage of these children, the family
-has become allied with many of the old families of New York
-and Pennsylvania, including the Tillotsons, Shippens, Leas, Laurences,
-Nortons, Luquers, Pringles, Maitlands, Harveys, Ridgways,
-etc. James Lynch, the oldest of Dominick’s thirteen children, resided
-in Rome, N. Y., represented Oneida County in the state legislature
-for several years, and was later a judge of the Court of Sessions,
-and of the Marine, now City, Court, of New York. Dominick
-Lynch, 2d, at the time of, and after, his father’s death became
-a prominent merchant in New York City. This second Dominick
-was spoken of as “the most fashionable man in New York.” He
-made quite a reputation as proprietor of Lynch’s Chateau Margeaux,
-Lynch’s Sauterne and Lynch’s Lucca Oil. It is said of him
-that he “coined money and spent it with the freedom of a prince,”
-and that he “went into the best society.” He resided on Greenwich
-Street “opposite the Battery.” He died in 1844. He “was a
-Roman Catholic as his father had been.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Dominick Lynch, 3d, grandson of the first Dominick, was a man
-of great public spirit, an elegant conversationalist and the possessor
-of musical talents. He became a naval officer, served under Perry
-in the Mexican war, and was also in the Civil War. He died in
-1884. Dominick Lynch, 4th, was a lieutenant in the Fourth U. S.
-Cavalry and died some years ago. Speaking of the Lynches and

-1811, where passengers and crew were again landed. The New
-York <i>Shamrock</i>, describing the incident, says: “Commodore Rodgers
-was on the Newport station when 79 Irish passengers were landed
-from a wrecked vessel. He humanely tendered the hand of hospitality
-and liberally provided them with every necessary to enable
-them to proceed to New York, the port of their original destination.

-<p class='c011'>Otsego Lake, in central New York, possesses not only the charm
-of romance due to the pen of Fenimore Cooper, but also an historical
-interest. In the year 1779 an expedition was sent against the hostile
-Indians around Lake Cayuga. A brigade under the command of
-Gen. James Clinton, the brother of George Clinton and father of
-DeWitt Clinton (each of whom held the office of governor of New

-of the lake.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Susquehanna at its source is a very narrow stream and did not
-permit the floating of the 220 boats brought along by the troops.
-An ingenious plan was devised to overcome this difficulty. The

-had been collected, the troops embarked, the dam was knocked out,
-and the boats were carried by the flood to a point near Tioga, where
-the brigade joined the forces under General Sullivan. It is said that
-the Indians along the banks, beholding the overflow of the river
-in summer, without any apparent reason, thought that it was an interposition

-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>Not only were Catholics—L’Enfant, the Frenchman, and Dermott,
-the Irishman—the planners of the Federal City, Washington,
-but a Catholic, James Hoban, a native of Ireland, was the architect
-and builder of the president’s palace, as it was first called, the president’s
-house as later designated, but better known as the White
-House.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Hoban was born in Kilkenny, Ireland, in 1758. When only
-twenty-two years old he won a medal from the Dublin Society for
-“drawings of brackets, stairs, roof, etc.” It is now in possession
-of his grandson, James Hoban, of Washington. He came to this
-country after the revolution and soon became known as an architect
-and builder.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>When, in 1791, Washington visited South Carolina, writes Mr.
-Griffin, Colonel Laurens and others recommended to him the abilities
-as an architect and the executive worth of James Hoban, the Kilkenny
-Irishman, who had, since his arrival, added to the growth
-and adornment of the neighborhood by the exercise of that skill
-and ingenuity which the new country so much needed.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Hoban went to Washington city and submitted to the commissioners
-a plan for the president’s palace. His plan was accepted
-immediately and without hesitation after a view of the drawings
-which were submitted.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Hoban’s plan of the president’s palace being adopted, the selection
-of the site on which to erect it required the personal attention of
-Washington himself. So on August 2, 1792, the commissioners and
-President Washington “viewed the ground, particularly at the place
-for the palace. It has given him considerable trouble and difficulty
-to fix his mind,” wrote the commissioners.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Hoban’s design of the president’s house contemplated a central
-building with wings. The central portion was executed according
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_39'>39</span>to his designs and under his supervision (we are told he received
-300 guineas a year for his services)—both before and after the damage
-by the British in 1814. The north portico was not completed
-until 1820, and then according to Hoban’s plan. Its popular name
-of the White House is due to his thought of painting the brownstone
-fronting the exterior walls to conceal the discoloration by smoke
-and fire.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Cornelius McDermott Roe, Patrick McDermott Roe and John
-Delahunty had the contract for all the brick and stone work on the
-president’s house for one season, and John Kearney did all the plastering
-on the capitol.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Thus far in our investigations we have found that a Catholic was
-one of the commissioners; that two Catholics planned the city; that
-a Catholic designed and built the president’s house and also superintended
-the erection of the capitol, which three Catholics contracted
-to build, and another did the plastering, while Patrick Whalen dug
-the cellar. Surely Irish Catholics seem to have had a goodly share
-in the foundation of the Capital City.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Mr. Hoban died on December 9, 1831, and was buried in St.
-Patrick’s Cemetery. In May, 1863, his grandson and namesake,
-James Hoban, Esq., purchased a lot in Mount Olivet Cemetery,
-near Washington, and the remains of James Hoban and others of
-the family were removed thereto.</p>

-</div>
-
-<div class='nf-center-c0'>
-<div class='nf-center c002'>
- <div>BY JAMES L. O’NEILL, ELIZABETH, N. J.</div>
- </div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>Patrick Barber was born in County Longford, Ireland, and was
-the father of Col. Francis Barber, who was a gallant soldier of the
-American Revolution. The colonel himself was born (1751) in
-Princeton, N. J., and long resided in Elizabethtown, N. J.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The father, Patrick, had come over in the same ship with Clinton.
-They are said to have been kinsmen. After a perilous voyage lasting
-some four months, they finally reached New York, where Clinton
-remained, Barber continuing on to Princeton, N. J.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Patrick Barber resided in Princeton for years and here were born
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_40'>40</span>four of his sons—Francis, John, William and Joseph. Col. Francis
-Barber graduated from Princeton College after securing for himself
-a distinguished reputation for his classical attainments. As we may
-infer from the character of Elizabethtown’s first settlers, much
-attention was paid to the subject of education by the people. And
-to this we may attribute the strong influence which for a long time
-it maintained in the province. We find in 1767, a Mr. Pemberton
-and a Mr. Reeves at the head of a school. In 1769, they left the
-institution and Francis Barber was appointed to fill the vacancy. He
-continued in the position until the commencement of the war, a
-period when teachers and many scholars left the quiet pursuits of
-science and rushed to arms for the defence of the country.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In 1776, Mr. Barber received from Congress a commission as
-major of the Third Battalion of New Jersey troops, and at the close
-of the year he was appointed lieutenant-colonel of the Third Jersey
-Regiment. Subsequently, he became assistant inspector-general
-under Baron Steuben, who expressed a high opinion of his ability
-and services. Colonel Barber was in constant service during the
-whole war. With his regiment he served under General Schuyler
-at the north. He was at the battles of Ticonderoga, Trenton,
-Princeton, Brandywine, Germantown and Monmouth, and came
-near losing his life in the latter.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He was at one time adjutant-general under Sullivan. He served
-with distinction in the Wyoming Valley and Indian troubles. He
-was actively engaged in the battle of Springfield. In 1781, he was
-at the capture of the British army at Yorktown. Colonel Barber,
-although not more than thirty years at his death, had twice married,
-one of his helpmates, being the daughter of Moses Ogden, whose
-residence was the old town home that still stands on the north side of
-Elizabeth Avenue below Reed Street.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>So close was his friendship with Lafayette that they exchanged
-swords. The sword Lafayette gave Barber is now in the Washington
-headquarters at Newburgh, N. Y., while the one Barber gave in
-exchange is preserved in Paris. Speaking of men noted in the military
-world, a few years ago, General Stryker, president of the Society
-of the Cincinnati, at the meeting of that organization, which was
-attended by William P. Barber, said that he considered Colonel
-Barber an ideal soldier. W. P. Barber is a great great-grandson of
-Colonel Barber. Colonel Barber was the tutor of Alexander Hamilton.</p>

- <h2 class='c004'>CONCERNING THE IRISH MONTGOMERYS.</h2>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c005'>In the <cite>New York Herald</cite>, September 10, 1905, is a statement by
-“L. W., London, England,” giving many details of interest concerning
-the ancestry and family of Gen. Richard Montgomery. The
-statement appears in the genealogical department of the <cite>Herald</cite>, of
-that date, which department is conducted by Mrs. Clara H. Manning.
-The statement is in answer to a correspondent and is as follows:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“H. W. N.’s family tradition is at fault. Gen. Richard Montgomery
-had no sister Elizabeth. His only sister was Sarah, wife
-of Charles Jones, fourth Viscount Planelagh, and mother of thirteen
-children. General Montgomery had brothers, John and Alexander.
-John died unmarried in Lisbon, 1786. His administration is in the
-Prerogative Court of Ireland. Alexander, the brother, was captain
-in the Forty-third Regiment and member of the Irish Parliament for
-County Donegal; died unmarried September 29, 1800. His will is
-in the Prerogative Court of Ireland. Lady Planelagh and her three
-brothers were the children of Thomas Montgomery, of Swords, near
-Dublin, eldest son of Alexander Montgomery, of Ballyleek, who
-married Mary Francklyn.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“Thomas Montgomery had several brothers and sisters. His
-brother, Robert, of Brandram, County Monaghan, married Sarah
-Maxwell. This is the nearest Maxwell connection. Thomas had
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_42'>42</span>many cousins. Ulster has many Montgomerys of other lines. It
-is said the Earl of Mount Alexander could ride at the head of a
-regiment all Montgomerys. At one time in the Irish Parliament
-were six Montgomerys all over six feet in height and the handsomest
-men in Dublin.... By far [one of] the most noted
-family of modern times is that of the Montgomerys of Grey Abbey,
-County Down, a famous military stock.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“For all this they have a pedigree made in the eighteenth century
-to take them on to the famous old Grey Abbey stock of the early
-Ulster settlement. As a fact, they are descended from a thrifty
-yeoman who purchased Grey Abbey after the old stock had died out.
-No American Montgomerys can prove any near connection with
-either the Montgomerys of Ballyleek or the Earls of Mount Alexander.
-The nearest probable American connection is not of the
-Montgomery name, being that of the descendants of Thomas Patterson,
-who emigrated from County Donegal to Philadelphia at the time
-of the Irish rebellion. Thomas Patterson was grandson of Alleriah
-Montgomery, said by tradition to be a cousin of the general. Her
-marriage certificate in the diocese of Raphoe indicates her as coming
-from the vicinity of the general’s family, being about his age and
-not belonging to any other of the Montgomery families in that part
-of Ireland.”</p>

-</div>
-
-<div class='nf-center-c0'>
-<div class='nf-center c002'>
- <div>BY MICHAEL J. O’BRIEN, NEW YORK CITY.</div>
- </div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>No section of the Union presents a wider or more diversified field
-for historical inquiry than the Carolinas and Virginia.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>All the territory from the Delaware River south to Cape Fear
-was named “Virginia” by the English, and it is generally supposed
-that it was in the present state of Virginia the earliest colonists
-landed. It was, however, the Indians of North Carolina who were
-the first to set eyes on the white men who came to America with the
-famous navigator, Sir Walter Raleigh, in the year 1584.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Among these first-comers to the Carolinas Irishmen are found,
-and in the resistance to the authority and encroachments of the
-British organized in that section many years later, the sons of Erin
-and their descendants are recorded as having played an honorable
-and prominent part.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In Hakluyt’s <cite>Voyages, Navigations, Traffiques and Discouveries
-of the English Nation</cite> are found some interesting facts relating to the
-first voyages of the English, under Raleigh and his lieutenants, to
-the western world. Richard Hakluyt was one of those who accompanied
-Raleigh on his first voyage of discovery in 1584. His
-<cite>Voyages and Discouveries</cite>, now a work of extreme rarity (it was published
-in London over 300 years ago), is by all odds the most celebrated
-book ever written on the subject, and forms the basis of all
-true history of the colonization of the Carolinas and Virginia. It
-is printed in the old English text of the sixteenth century, which renders
-its examination a task as laborious as it is interesting. The
-writer has examined the copy of this famous work in the Astor
-Library, and we are sure our readers will be interested in learning
-something of its contents at this stage.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The second voyage was undertaken by Sir Richard Greenville in
-the year 1585. The company comprised 107 persons. Hakluyt’s
-great work (page 254, volume 3) contains “an account of the particulars
-of the employments of the Englishmen left in Virginia by
-Sir Richard Greenville under the charge of Master Ralph Lane,
-general of the same, from August 17, 1585, to June 18, 1586.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>It will be observed that Greenville refers to “the Englishmen
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_44'>44</span>left in Virginia.” This would lead the ordinary reader to the conclusion
-that the expedition was comprised of Englishmen only, but
-such an assumption would be erroneous. In those days Ireland had
-a merchant marine of her own, and the ships which sailed from Irish
-ports, and indeed not a few of those whose home ports were in England,
-were manned by Irish seamen. (See Marmion’s <i>Maritime
-Ports of Ireland</i>.) What more natural, therefore, than to expect
-that Irish names should be found among the lists of these “Englishmen?”
-All of the early histories of the southern colonies refer to
-the first settlers as English. No suggestion is ever made, as far as
-the writer can find, that these first-comers may not all have been
-English, or that any Irish people were amongst them. Yet it is a
-fact that Irishmen came too in search of adventure, and no better
-testimony in support of that assertion can be adduced than the lists
-of the names of the persons who came on these colonizing expeditions.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Here are some of the names from Greenvilles’ list, as they were
-written down at the time: Edward Kelley, R. Courtney, Hugh
-Rogers, Thomas Fox, Darby “Glande,” Edward Nugent, John “Costigo”
-(Costigan), James Lafie, Francis Norris, Richard Moore, Richard
-Ireland, Matthew Lyne, Dennis Barnes, “Denice” Carroll, Robert
-Young, Thomas Hesket, Richard Humphrey and R. Griffin. Many
-of these, undoubtedly, were natives of Ireland. This is said to have
-been the first English colony that settled in America, the previous
-expedition having returned with its entire company.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>They entered Pamlico Sound from the Atlantic by what is now
-known as New Inlet, and then landed at Roanoke Island, thence
-crossed over to the mainland to the eastern portion of North Carolina,
-just south of Norfolk, Va. They followed the course of the Chowan
-River for a short distance, and soon came in contact with the Indians.
-Hakluyt’s work contains an interesting narrative of the voyage and of
-the explorations of the party in Virginia, written by Ralph Lane, in
-which long accounts are given of their encounters with the savage
-Indians. In his account of one fight, on the first of June, 1586, he
-refers to the bravery of “one of my Irish boys,” who shot Pemisapan,
-the king of the Indians, “athwart the buttocks with my petronell.”
-The Irish boy’s shot did not, however, bring down the Indian king,
-and the wily redskin, with a number of his warriors, managed to
-escape into the dense forest.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>But then, another Irishman, who was not afraid to face the Indian
-band singlehanded, was there to finish the work of the youthful
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_45'>45</span>adventurer from Erin, “for,” writes Lane, “in the end an Irishman
-serving me, one Nugent, and the deputy provost undertook him”—that
-is to say, volunteered to capture or kill the Indian king—“and
-I, in some doubt lest we had lost both the king and my man, by our
-own negligence to have been intercepted by the savages, we met him
-returning out of the woods with Pemisapan’s head in his hands.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The place where the bold Irishman, Edward Nugent, and the
-nameless youth thus earned such prominent mention in early
-American history has been located as in Chowan County, near the
-present town of Edenton, N. C.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>It seems that in all of the early voyages of the English to the
-American continent the adventurous Irishman was present. On
-Raleigh’s first voyage the largest ship was commanded by a Captain
-Butler, and Captain Edward Hayes commanded a vessel in the expedition
-of Sir H. Gilbert to Newfoundland in 1583. Sixteen
-years earlier, 1567, Robert Barrett and John Garrett commanded
-ships in the expedition to Mexico under Sir John Hawkins. There
-is nothing to show that these captains were of the Irish nation, but
-their names have been for centuries so common in Ireland that we
-venture to include them in this category.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In 1568, when Hawkins arrived in the Gulf of Mexico, he put
-ashore a company comprising 68 men under Miles Philips, a little
-north of Panuco. From the curiously-worded narrative of Miles
-Philips, entitled “The voyages from Panuco, thence to Mexico, and
-afterwards to sundry other places, having remained in the counterey
-15 or 16 yeeres together, and noted many things most worthy of observation,”
-which is contained in Hakluyt’s third volume, we glean
-some interesting information.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The whole company was captured by a band of Indians and Spaniards,
-and immediately haled before the governor, who “visited them
-with the terrors of the Inquisition.” John Gray, John and Thomas
-Browne, John Mooney, James Collier and John Rider were sentenced
-to receive 200 lashes on horseback and to serve eight years
-in the galleys; others of the company received various terms of
-servitude, while others were condemned to serve as servants or slaves
-in the monasteries. Three were condemned to be burned to ashes,
-and the inhuman sentence was carried out in the market place of the
-City of Mexico on the day preceding Good Friday in the year 1575.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The three unfortunates were George Riuely (Reilly), Peter Momfrie
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_46'>46</span>and “Cornelius.” Philips was unacquainted with the full name
-of the latter, but in order to distinguish him from another of the
-party who bore the same Christian name, he refers to him as “Cornelius
-the Irishman.” In relating the circumstances of his subsequent
-escape, Philips stated that several of the adventurers, after the
-expiration of their terms of servitude, remained in Mexico, married
-native women, and some prospered in the new country.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The same volume of Hakluyt (page 286) contains the story of
-“The Fourth Voyage, made to Virginia in 1587, wherein was transported
-the Second Colony,” written by the commander, Captain
-John White. The narrative runs in part:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“On the first day of July (1587) we weighed anchor at Musketo’s
-Bay, upon the fourth side of St. John’s Island, where were left behind
-two Irishmen of our company, Darbie Glaven and Dennis Carrell,
-thence bearing along the coast of St. John’s till evening.” The
-vessels anchored in the bay for the purpose of securing a supply of
-salt, which Simon Fernando, who was with Raleigh on the first expedition,
-had informed White could be procured on the island. The
-two hardy Irishmen, Glaven and Carrell, were selected to go ashore
-and procure the necessary supply. They proceeded inland, but,
-during their absence, Fernando, for some reason that does not appear,
-persuaded the commander to weigh anchor, and before the two unfortunates
-had returned to the shore, the vessels were far on their way.
-It would be interesting if we could follow the fortunes of the two
-Irish castaways among the Indians of the Danish West Indies, but
-history contains no further account of them.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In the following September, when one of the vessels of the expedition
-was on its return to England, she encountered a great storm.
-The crew and passengers were in sore straits on account of the lack
-of food and water, expecting to perish by famine at sea. On October
-16, however, when they had almost given up in despair, they sighted
-land, which proved to be the coast of Kerry. By the aid of “a
-hulke of Dublin” they entered Smerwick Bay, where the inhabitants
-at once succored them. White relates that the whole company was
-brought ashore at “Dingen a Cos,” where the sick sailors and passengers
-were taken care of by the local doctor.</p>
-<div class='figcenter id001'>
-<img src='images/i_049a.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' />
-<div class='ic001'>
-<p>HON. JOHN S. WHALEN.<br /><br />New York Secretary of State.<br /><br />A MEMBER OF THE SOCIETY.</p>
-</div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_47'>47</span>The writer of the narrative pays a well-merited tribute to the
-inhabitants of Smerwick and Dingle for their timely and spontaneous
-aid. They stayed at Smerwick for over two weeks; there
-White distributed some potato plants among the people, “the first
-ever seen in Europe.” It is generally supposed that it was Raleigh
-who first brought the potato plant to Europe, but according to
-White’s account, it was he who introduced it, and that it was the
-inhabitants of the County of Kerry who were the first Europeans
-to taste the esculent tuber.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Could John White, who wrote the official account of, and commanded
-this expedition, have been an Irishman? His story of the
-fifth voyage is dated “from my house at Newtown, in Kilmore, the
-fourth of February, 1593.” There is no such place as Kilmore in
-England, but there are several such places in Ireland, and the name
-is distinctively Irish. The town of Dingle, County Kerry, has always
-been and even is still known to the inhabitants as “Dingen a
-Cos.” It will be observed that White referred to the town by its
-Irish, not by its Anglicized appellation, which, to some, may be suggestive
-that a knowledge of the Gaelic language, which, happily, most
-Irishmen spoke in those days, was one of the accomplishments of
-the historian mariner.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>And is it not highly probable that White and his officers, who came
-to form such friendly intercourse with the fisher-folk of the Kerry
-coast, may have informed them of “the great land beyond the sea,”
-with the result that, on his subsequent voyages to Virginia, he was accompanied
-by not a few of the hardy natives of the Kingdom of
-Kerry?</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>After the forfeiture of the immense estates of the Desmonds in
-Munster in 1584, Raleigh came into possession of 12,000 acres in
-Cork, Waterford and Tipperary. He built and made his home in
-the castle of Lismore, and soon after established at the neighboring
-ports of Waterford and Youghal a large trade in lumber and barrel
-staves with France and Spain. His ships were largely manned by
-Irish sailors, and it is entirely within the bounds of probability that
-Raleigh impressed into his transatlantic crews some of the sailors
-and fishermen of the Munster coast.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In the charter which Raleigh received from the English crown on
-March 27, 1585, empowering him to hold the lands which he had
-colonized in America and apportion them among the colonists, reference
-is made to “persons from England and Ireland,” thus showing
-that Irishmen were among the first white settlers of the western
-world.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_48'>48</span>Among those who landed in North Carolina from White’s fourth
-expedition, and “remayned to inhabite there,” were Thomas Coleman,
-Edward and Winifred Powell, James Hyndes, William and Henry
-Browne, Thomas Ellis, Michael Millet, James Lafie, Maurice Allen,
-Richard Berry, Dennis and Margery Harvie, William Waters, Martin
-Sutton, Hugh Patterson, Thomas Humphrey and John and Brian
-“Wyles.” Most of these names are common to Britain as well as
-to Ireland, but, without doubt, some of them were natives of
-Ireland.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>These colonists all either perished from famine or were slain by
-the savage enemy. Some are supposed to have sought asylum among
-the Hatteras Indians at Croatoan, who were friendly to the whites.
-Lawson, one of the historians of North Carolina, writing in 1714 of
-the natives of Croatoan, relates how the Indians told him that some
-of their ancestors were white people and “could talk in a book as we
-do,” and that many of the Hatteras Indians had gray eyes, which are
-known only among whites.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In his account of the fifth voyage, White tells of their arrival at
-the mouth of the Roanoke on August 17, 1590. A great storm raged;
-the ship’s boats were tossed about at the mercy of the waves, and
-eleven of the company drowned, among them Edward Kelly, Edward
-Kilborne and Robert Coleman. These three are mentioned as
-“among 7 of the chiefest men of the expedition.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Hawk, one of the historians of North Carolina, says that “in
-1666 the Lords Proprietors had agents employed in seeking emigrants
-on the continent of Europe, and in Ireland, Scotland and the
-West Indies,” and the same author in referring to the divers religious
-beliefs professed by the people of North Carolina (about 1700),
-refers to “the Irish Romanists.” It is to be regretted that we have
-no means of tracing the names or careers of any of those “Irish Romanists.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Hewatt’s <cite>Historical Account of the Rise and Progress of the Colonies
-of South Carolina and Georgia</cite> (published at London in the year
-1776), is referred to by historians as an authoritative work. In
-this book many references are made to the early Irish settlers of the
-Carolinas. The author describes the dreadful extremities to which
-the poor settlers in the vicinity of Charlestown (now Charleston), S.
-C., were reduced in the year 1667.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>During the government of Sir John Yeamans a civil disturbance
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_49'>49</span>broke out among the colonists, which threatened the ruin of the settlement.
-“The Proprietors,” says Hewatt, “were unable to furnish the
-colony with regular supplies, and the spots of sandy and barren land
-poorly rewarded their toil. Many of them were unskilled, and the
-European grain which they were accustomed to sow soon proved suitable
-to neither soil nor climate. The settlers began to murmur
-against the Proprietors and to curse the day they left their native land
-to starve in a wilderness. While they gathered oysters for subsistence
-with one hand, they were obliged to carry the musket in the other
-for defence against the Indians.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In this emergency, a true son of Ireland is seen to have been in the
-forefront of the battles waged by the afflicted colonists. Florence
-O’Sullivan was one of the leading men among the settlers of Charlestown,
-some of whom were his countrymen, and to whom they looked
-for guidance and counsel. O’Sullivan is said to have come to South
-Carolina with Governor Sayle. He was surveyor-general of the
-province until he was succeeded by John Culpeper in 1671. He is
-thought to have been of the famous family of that name whose
-paternal home was on the borders of Cork and Kerry, and which
-gave to America schoolmasters, governors, a celebrated general of the
-Revolutionary army, and in later days men who distinguished themselves
-in every sphere of activity in the new country.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>To add to the troubles between the colonists and the Indians, it
-is related that about this time there was great fear among the Carolinians
-of an invasion by the Spaniards from the South. Militia
-companies were formed in and around Charlestown to resist invasion,
-and O’Sullivan had been placed in command of a body of men on an
-island in the harbor—now known as Sullivan’s Island. Their situation
-was one of great danger and they were instructed to warn the
-inhabitants on the first approach of the enemy, and then return to
-shore. “The great gun”—evidently the only one available—was in
-the immediate charge of O’Sullivan.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Spaniards did not put in an appearance; the scanty supplies of
-the party soon gave out, but they stuck to their post until starvation
-stared them in the face. They remained until all hope had fled that
-their supplies would be replenished, and when they were not forthcoming,
-O’Sullivan and his men, deciding that to perish from hunger
-would be an inglorious end, deserted the island without consulting
-the governor and joined the discontented party in the town.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_50'>50</span>Thereupon, we are told, the people became ungovernable and
-threatened to compel the authorities to relinquish the settlement.
-O’Sullivan was arrested by the town marshal and “compelled to find
-security for his good behavior.” Vessels were despatched to Virginia
-and to Barbadoes for provisions, but, before they returned, a
-ship arrived from Europe with supplies and a number of new settlers.
-“The newcomers revived the drooping spirits of the people and encouraged
-them to engage in more vigorous efforts. The governor,
-sensible of the hardships the people had suffered, readily forgave
-them,” and O’Sullivan and his friends were released from further
-restraint.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Spanish authorities at St. Augustine, “on learning the belated
-news of the discontented and miserable condition of the Carolina
-colonists,” advanced with an armed party as far as St. Helena Island,
-about 50 miles south of Charlestown, to dislodge or destroy the
-settlers. Brian Fitzpatrick, a well-known “character” of the settlement,
-is said to have deserted his friends at this juncture and to
-have gone over to the Spaniards. What his purpose was in doing
-so does not appear. However, reinforcements arrived to aid the
-Carolinians, upon which the Spaniards evacuated St. Helena and retreated
-to Augustine.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>After the death of Governor Yeamans in 1674, the inhabitants
-called a meeting at Charlestown, when they elected representatives
-for the purpose of making laws for the government of the colony.
-Thomas Gray, Henry Hughes, Maurice Mathews and Christopher
-Portman were the four deputies chosen by the people.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In 1680 Richard Kirle, who is described as “an Irish gentleman,”
-succeeded to the governorship, but he died six months after taking
-the reins of office.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Elsewhere we have referred to the wholesale exportation of the
-Irish by Cromwell, mainly to the Island of Barbadoes, during the
-first half of the seventeenth century. In time, those who survived
-the tropical climate became freemen, and eventually even some became
-landowners, planters and the business men of the island.
-Numbers of them, on gaining their freedom, sailed for the American
-coast with their families. They had been apprised of the opportunities
-open for them in the South, as the planters of Virginia and
-the Carolinas had their agents in the West Indies inducing them to
-settle on the mainland. In John Camden Hotten’s famous work,
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_51'>51</span>there is a list of those who departed from Barbadoes in the year 1678,
-which is described in this quaint language:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“List of what Ticqtts. have been granted out of the Secretary’s
-office of the Island of Barbadoes for departure off this island of the
-several psones hereafter menconed, beginning in January, 1678, and
-ending in December following.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>These are seen to have sailed for Virginia and the Carolinas and
-other American colonies:</p>

-<p class='c011'>On one ship, the <i>True Friendship</i>, commanded by Capt. Charles
-Kallahan, these sailed from Barbadoes:</p>
-
-<ul class='index'>
- <li class='c007'>Jeoffrey Burke</li>
- <li class='c007'>Thomas Clovan</li>
- <li class='c007'>Richard Lynch</li>
- <li class='c007'>Patrick Maddin</li>
- <li class='c007'>Thomas Swiney</li>
- <li class='c007'>Samuel Wall</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p class='c011'>Those who left Barbadoes for America in the year 1678 are the
-only ones recorded by Hotten, but for many years there was a constant
-stream of wanderers leaving the West Indies for the American
-coast. We are as yet unable to procure any records but those of the
-year 1678.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Thus we see what a great infusion of Irish blood Virginia and
-the Carolinas received in the year 1678 alone. Some of these were
-servants, but among them also were men of family, who either settled
-down on the plantations or received grants of uncultivated lands
-themselves, which, in course of time, they converted into fruitful
-estates. It has been well said that “the fighting races don’t die out,”
-and surely the blood of these early Gaels must have been a potent
-factor in moulding the Americans of later generations in the South.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Irish families are invariably large, and as the same homely virtue
-is usually practised by their descendants, it will not be deemed an
-exaggeration when we say that thousands of the present natives of
-the South are descended directly or indirectly from the Irish colonizers
-from Barbadoes of the last half of the seventeenth century.
-There is no system of calculation by which we could arrive at any
-adequate idea of the probable number of American descendants of
-those early settlers, but, if we adopt the simple method of taking
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_53'>53</span>the number of generations that have elapsed since their coming, and
-then apportion, say an average of five persons to each family for each
-succeeding generation, we can safely conclude that when American
-historians refer to the pioneers of the South as wholly “of Anglo-Saxon
-origin,” they are playing fast and loose with their imaginations.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The provincial authorities were anxious to attract immigrants to
-open up the virgin forest and extend the bounds of their domain,
-so we find them in communication with the government agents in
-England and Ireland, offering the most flattering inducements to
-all who desired to settle in the new country.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Farmers, artisans and agricultural laborers were particularly
-needed, while they objected to the importation of convicts and other
-undesirable persons. Irish political refugees were sometimes classed
-as “convicts,” and while the provincial history, supported by other
-testimony of an indubitable character, indicates that great numbers
-of Irish “convicts” settled in Virginia, it is seen that once they had
-landed on the soil, they were, in a manner, “tolerated” and permitted
-to stay, and accordingly were parcelled out among the planters and
-others who needed the services of able-bodied men.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The privations suffered by those imported Irish “convicts” under
-the vassalage of their colonial masters are, in some cases, beyond
-description, and would shake the credulity of the most sympathetic.
-Many of them occupied even lower positions than the Southern
-slaves of a later day. Not only were they the tillers of the soil,
-the woodsmen of the forest, and the builders of the highways, but
-they occupied “the firing line” in the resistance of the planters to
-the attacks of the savage redskins. Here where the ravages of the
-Indians were so terrible, these Irishmen and boys, so rudely torn
-from their own country, inflicted on savagery many a mortal blow
-and opened the way for the civilization whose fruits we now enjoy.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The continued cry for settlers attracted the avarice of many of
-the Cromwellian adventurers in Ireland, who thus became most efficient
-aids in carrying on the barbarous work of the English commissioners,
-who were appointed by government to exterminate the
-Irish.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>As Prendergast relates in his <cite>Cromwellian Settlement of Ireland</cite>,
-they had agents actively engaged throughout Ireland, “who were
-authorized by Parliament to seize women, orphans and the destitute
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_54'>54</span>to be transported to Barbadoes and the plantations of Virginia.”
-Among the destitute were those whose ancient properties had been
-confiscated by the crown and many of whom had become wanderers
-over the stricken island, or had become inmates of the workhouses.
-“The commissioners for Ireland,” says Prendergast, “issued orders
-to the governors of garrisons to deliver all prisoners of war; to the
-jail-keepers for all offenders in their custody; to the masters of
-workhouses for the destitute in their care, and gave directions to all
-in authority to seize those who had no visible means of livelihood
-and deliver them to the British agents.” All unfortunates who were
-thus caught were quickly conducted to the waterside and there herded
-like so many cattle until such time as a sufficient number had been
-gathered in to embark them on board some ship bound for the West
-Indies or the coast of Virginia.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Some of the English adventurers in Ireland also engaged in the
-business of man-hunting on their own account, and we find from the
-records of Virginia that on April 12, 1621, Sir William Newce, an
-English officer who resided in the County of Cork, wrote to the governor
-“offering to transport two thousand persons to Virginia.” The
-same records indicate that Daniel Gookin, an Irish Quaker merchant
-of Cork City, was in the business of transporting cattle from Ireland
-to Virginia. On one occasion, he came in person to the colony,
-and, seeing the probable advantages of a permanent settlement in
-the country, he sailed from Cork in the <i>Flying Harte</i> with a large
-number of his countrymen, who, we are told, “were exceedingly well
-furnished with all sorts of provisions and cattle,” and landed at
-Newport News in November, 1621.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Notwithstanding that the records of Virginia say that this large
-colony came from Ireland, they are referred to by historians, who at
-all make reference to them, as “English.” The fact that they were
-so “well furnished” would also indicate that Ireland sent forth other
-colonizers to America in those early days besides the “convicts” and
-the “destitute.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In the “Records of the London Company” (the Proprietors of
-Virginia), Daniel Gookin is mentioned as having undertaken “to
-transport great multitudes of people and cattle to Virginia,” and as
-having “received patents for 300 people.” The records do not state
-from where this large colony came, but, from the fact that their
-leader had formerly been a merchant in the city of Cork, from where
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_55'>55</span>his first contingent sailed, it is entirely within the bounds of probability
-that the second colony was largely, if not entirely, composed
-of Munstermen.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In 1622 many of the colonists were massacred by Indians, after
-which the remainder were ordered to abandon the outlying plantations
-and to concentrate their forces about the stronger ones. Gookin’s
-Irish settlement, which had been located near the mouth of the
-James River, back of Newport News, was one of those ordered to
-be abandoned, but he refused to obey the order, and, “gathering together
-his dependants, who by that time numbered only 35, he
-remained at his post, to his great credit and the content of his adventurers.”
-(Stith’s <cite>History of Virginia</cite>.)</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In 1637 Gookin received a grant of 2,500 acres of land in Upper
-Norfolk, now Nansemond County, and in 1642 he was appointed
-commander of the county. The court records show, under date of
-May 24, 1642, that “Daniel Gookin, late of Ireland,” was still a
-resident of Upper Norfolk County. His son, Daniel, left Virginia
-for Massachusetts, where he became superintendent of Indian Affairs,
-with the title of major-general. He was also the author of a
-history of the Indians. It is said that his descendants are now very
-numerous in the United States.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Neill, in his <cite>History of the English Colonization of America</cite>, a
-most authoritative work, gives in full a sermon preached at Bowe
-Street Church in London in 1622, by a famous clergyman named
-Rev. Patrick Copland, who had been employed by the East India
-Company in Barbadoes. In this sermon he referred to “a fleete of
-nine sayle of ships that not one person out of 800 who had been
-transported out of England and Ireland for the plantations of Virginia,
-had met with any mishap by the way.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In a footnote to the remarks of the preacher, the historian in referring
-to the great exodus from Ireland to the American colonies,
-remarks that “Ireland has always been a hive from which America
-has derived sturdy hewers of wood to subdue the forests.” In 1622,
-Rev. Patrick Copland was appointed first president of the College
-of Virginia and general manager of all its properties. The college
-was founded by King James in 1622 and was established at Henrico
-City, fifteen miles below Richmond. (See <cite>Old Churches and Families
-of Virginia</cite>, by Bishop William Meade.)</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>At this period there must have been a goodly number of Irish in
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_56'>56</span>Virginia, if we are to judge from the contents of a little book, “suitable
-for a projected school in Virginia,” prepared in 1621 by an
-English Puritan minister named John Brinsley. The book was
-intended as “a plea for learning and the school master.” The
-author stated that “the incivility among manie of the Irish, the Virginians,
-and all other barbarous nations” grew “from their exceeding
-ignorance of our Holy God and of all true and good learning.”
-On another page the author said it was his unfeigned desire to adapt
-the book “for all functions and places, and more particularly to
-every ruder place, and more especially to that poor Irish nation with
-our loving countrymen in Virginia.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>How very solicitous he was for the “uncivil” Irish! To him, of
-course, they appeared rude and uncivil because they did not in those
-days speak in the English tongue, but in their own undefiled and
-mellifluous Gaelic. The book was presented by Brinsley “at a court
-held for Virginia on December 19, 1621,” on which occasion a committee
-was appointed to determine whether the book was suitable
-for distribution among the school children. This circumstance is
-related by the historian Neill.</p>

-<p class='c011'>A few years ago there was issued from the government printing

-
-<p class='c011'>The volume is of great interest, is arranged chronologically and

-
-<p class='c011'>Frequent mention is made in them of Walsh’s Irish Regiment of

- <h2 class='c004'>NEHEMIAH WALTER, BORN IN IRELAND, 1663.</h2>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c005'>At a meeting of the Cambridge (Mass.) Historical Society held
-in Cambridge in 1906, a paper was read by William Coolidge Lane,
-Esq., in which he devoted some attention to the career of Nehemiah
-Walter. The matter is of so interesting a nature that we here reproduce
-a portion of the paper, the title of which is “The Nehemiah
-Walter Elegy on Elijah Corlet.” Walter was born in Ireland in
-1663 and came to New England in 1679. Mr. Lane tells us that
-he became a minister highly esteemed here.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>At the age of thirteen he is said to have readily conversed in
-Latin. He had been apprenticed to an upholsterer in 1674, but it
-was found that his tastes were altogether literary. After coming
-to this country, he was at first placed under Ezekiel Cheever, the Boston
-schoolmaster, but entered college almost immediately, in 1680.
-He was butler in 1683, and graduated in 1684. Soon after, he
-made a voyage to Nova Scotia, where he became proficient in French,
-but returned to study in Cambridge, and was often employed by
-Corlet as his assistant. “It reflected a luster on his character that
-the memorable Mr. Elijah Corlet, master of the Grammar School
-in Cambridge, used to express a distinguishing value for him by
-employing him to officiate at times in the care of his school when
-obliged to be absent himself, always esteeming his place well supplied
-by Mr. Walter, and fully confiding in his skill, prudence and
-diligence.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Elegy was composed when he was but three years out of
-college, and was still studying for the ministry in Cambridge. In
-1688 he was ordained as a colleague with John Eliot in Roxbury,
-Mass., then 84 years old. His people in Roxbury, and Eliot himself,
-showed a deep affection for him, and the liveliest satisfaction at
-having secured him for their minister. Walter continued as the
-minister of the church in Roxbury up to 1750, so that his ministry
-and Eliot’s together covered a period of one hundred and eighteen
-years. He was for many years a member of the corporation of Harvard
-College, and sided with Increase Mather, his father-in-law.
-After Mather’s exclusion from the presidency, he attended no more
-meetings of the corporation, and was considered to have abdicated
-his office.</p>

- <h2 class='c004'>IRISH INFLUENCE IN THE LIFE OF BALTIMORE.</h2>
-</div>
-
-<div class='nf-center-c0'>
-<div class='nf-center c002'>
- <div>BY D. J. SCULLY OF BALTIMORE, MD.</div>
- </div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>It is a peculiar thing to study out fairly, even without setting
-down aught except that which can be actually proved, what an important
-part Irishmen have taken in shaping this Irish-named city
-which in the estimation of those who do not stop to think, is deemed
-an “Anglo-Saxon” community. This phrase, Anglo-Saxon, is now
-the thing, especially among some educators. It is a handy phrase.
-It may mean something, but as often means nothing in particular.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>It is like the stuff coined at trial tables, such as “brain-storms”
-and “Dementia Americana,” sufficient for the atmosphere of a courtroom,
-but no where else on earth, where common sense is supposed
-to prevail. Hence the delicious and unmeaning phrase, “Anglo-Saxon”
-this and “Anglo-Saxon” that, as used by the educated few,
-to mislead the so-called uneducated many. It is naturally a bold
-man who would call an Irishman an Anglo-Saxon to his face, but
-the average American educationalist and writer does not make such
-statements to the Gael in propria persona.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He does it at long range, and hides behind his school book and
-his inkwell until the storm has passed by. The Irish who have
-influenced and who have directed in many ways the past of Baltimore
-laid no claim to be Anglo-Saxons and no one in their day
-sought to claim them as such. They were rather proud of their
-Irish birth and descent and made no effort to hide it. But it was a
-fact that it was no shame in those days to be Irish, and nobody
-thought so, not even the English.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>If it had been so awful to be Irish, no doubt the early settlers
-and founders of the city would have never allowed it to be named
-Baltimore. Prior to the Revolution the most important merchants
-and educators, and even professional men in the town, were Irish
-by birth. They laid the foundation of the town’s trade and commerce
-and built it up not only morally and physically, but financially.
-The man who laid the foundation of the town’s trade was Dr. John
-Stevenson, who, although a physician, had an eye to trade, and
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_68'>68</span>coming direct from Ireland deemed it wise to establish a line of ships
-between this city and Irish ports.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>This was the beginning of Baltimore’s commerce, which for nearly
-seventy-five years after Stevenson’s pioneer line was established, almost
-rivalled New York’s commerce in general, and in many ways
-excelled it. This will be refreshing news to many, but is not by any
-means overdrawn. The work done by Stevenson in establishing
-trade for Baltimore was continued by the Purviances, William Patterson,
-Bowly, John O’Donnell, John Smith, William Smith, William
-McDonald, Robert and John Oliver, Wm. Wilson, Talbott
-Jones, Isaac McKim, Robert Garrett, Luke Tiernan, Cumberland
-Dugan, David Stewart, Stephen Stewart, James Calhoun, John
-Sterrett, John McLure, Thomas Russell, Samuel Hughes, William
-Neill, Hugh Young, Patrick Colvin, Alexander Pendergast, Patrick
-Bennett, Robert Welsh, Mark Pringle, William Kennedy, James O.
-Law, Hugh McElderry, Charles M. Dougherty, William Walters,
-John McCoy, D. J. Foley, Hamilton Easter, Robert Neale, Hugh
-Birchhead, John Coulter, and others, who, from time to time, have
-figured prominently in the shipping and commercial annals of Baltimore.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Many of these men were not only the pioneers, but the leaders
-for years in the matters which concerned the carrying trade of
-Baltimore and also in the business concerns of the town and city.
-Their names are so closely associated with the history of Baltimore
-for the first hundred years of her history at least that it is impossible
-to disconnect them. They were honest merchants of the old school
-and their methods were direct and above suspicion. They laid the
-foundation of Baltimore’s reputation for business honesty. Their
-trade was with the East and West Indies, with South America and
-with Europe. Their white-winged clippers sailed every known sea,
-and their house flags were known in every country, aye, even by
-the savage African.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>It is highly interesting to trace the rise and rule of these expatriated
-Irish merchants who came to Baltimore, many of them with
-money and business experience, driven from Ireland by England’s
-unjust tariff laws, the same in character as those which now apply to
-our “possessions,” Porto Rico and the Philippines, to “encourage”
-their trade and commerce. These men hated England as strongly
-as they loved fair play. They waxed rich and placed everything
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_69'>69</span>they had at the services of their fellow citizens and of their country.
-They were well aware of England’s hypocritical methods and
-thus when the Revolution came on they cast their fortunes to a man
-with the colonies, and gave of their blood, their experience and
-their means to assist the patriots.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>During the Revolution, in Baltimore and Maryland they were
-prominent in all works of importance. Thus we see Samuel Purviance,
-the chief man of the town; Purviance was a leading merchant.
-He was chairman of the Committee on Correspondence, a sort of
-Ways and Means Committee, and as such he raised supplies for the
-patriotic cause and supervised methods of defense. His services to
-the patriot cause were vast, and he was frequently complimented by
-Washington and the Continental Congress for his services. He was
-largely instrumental in helping Lafayette to clothe his half-starved
-and half-clothed army when on its way to the South to prosecute
-that historic campaign which ended in the surrender of Cornwallis
-at Yorktown.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Thus he played a prominent part in one of the historic events in
-history, and considering the present status of this republic, the most
-momentous campaign in history. The Irish merchants who contributed
-to this fund to buy cloth and make uniforms for Lafayette’s
-ragged army were Messrs. Purviance, William Patterson, John McLure,
-Daniel Bowly, Ridgely and Pringle, James Calhoun, James
-McHenry, Charles Carroll, Wm. Smith, Alex. Donaldson, Samuel
-Hughes, Russell &amp; Hughes, William Neill, John Smith, William
-Smith, Hugh Young and Robert Patter Purviance. William Smith
-and William Patterson and other Irish merchants were also prominent
-in the committee work during the Revolution, and if it had
-failed, would have no doubt decorated the short end of a hangman’s
-rope for their love of liberty. The services of Charles Carroll of
-Carrollton and of his cousin, Charles Carroll, of Mount Clare, to the
-patriot cause and to the city and state, even the nation, it is needless
-to recount here, as they are well known.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>They were Irish-Americans, however, and not ashamed of it, and
-their influence in the city and its environs were considerable along
-all lines. William Patterson gave Patterson Park to the city, and
-also contributed largely to the foundation of many public enterprises,
-some of which survive today as monuments to the activities
-of himself and his fellow Irishmen. Prime among those monuments
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_70'>70</span>is the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. Isaac McKim, another
-Irishman, founded the first free school set up in Baltimore. It still
-stands at Baltimore and Aisquith streets a monument to him, and
-has been in its day a strong sphere of influence. John Oliver, another
-Gael, founded the Oliver Hibernian Free School, which has
-been for nearly a century a wide center of influence for good. It
-was the first school established in the United States for the exclusive
-education of Irish-Americans, and was established at a time
-when Americans of other races were without free schools of any
-kind. Prominent in the establishment of the Baltimore and Ohio
-Railroad and of the Northern Central Railroad were other Irish
-merchants and professional men, such as Robert Garrett, Alexander
-and George Brown, the latter of whom conceived the idea of
-building the road; Isaac McKim, Charles Carroll of Carrollton,
-John V. L. McMahon, the Irish American lawyer, who drew that
-first railroad charter ever drawn for the Baltimore and Ohio, which
-has served as a model ever since; Patrick McCauley, the Irish educator;
-Talbott Jones, Robert Oliver and others. These men gave
-not only their influence to these roads, but their money. How
-well they built, facts establish. John O’Donnell, the Irishman, was
-the man who named Canton, on the southeast side of the basin, because
-he thought it looked like Canton, China; and he was the first
-president of the Baltimore Gas Light Company. What that company
-has developed into the present shows. His son, Gen. Columbus
-O’Donnell, was for many years the honored president of the
-company.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Gen. Wm. McDonald was the first man to run packets on the
-Chesapeake Bay, and also the first to run steam vessels. And thus
-he was the founder of Baltimore’s great bay trade. That he was
-a man of influence the conditions of the present prove. He may
-have builded better than he knew, but he built greatly. Alexander
-Brown, Robert Garrett and Isaac McKim were practically the
-founders of the banking business of this city, and with others of
-the great Irish business men influenced the financial interests of
-Baltimore for many years. In fact, their descendants have a powerful
-influence in banking matters locally at this time. Every one
-is familiar with the tremendous influence exercised in railroad circles
-for many years by the Irish-American, John W. Garrett, and his
-son, Robert Garrett. There can be no question about those facts.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_71'>71</span>In the religious concerns of the city the Irish have ever played
-an important part. The city is the seat of the Roman Catholic
-church in this country, the first bishop and archbishop of which
-was John Carroll, an Irish-American. Since his day the Irish have
-been in the forefront in Catholic affairs in Baltimore, and the pewholders
-and attendants at the Cathedral and other Catholic churches
-have included many of Baltimore’s leading citizens. St. Mary’s
-Seminary has educated hundreds of Catholic priests who have gone
-out and labored for the salvation of souls. Of these Levites the
-great and almost overwhelming majority have been Irish-Americans.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Many of these good men have spent their lives in this city and
-have proven great sources of influence for upliftment to their fellowmen.
-The Irish names of the priests and bishops who have labored
-here in Baltimore would make a respectable directory for information
-on the municipality’s work for the betterment of men. Many
-will recall the names of the saintly McColgan, Dolan, McManus,
-Coskery, Slattery, McCoy, Dougherty, Malloy, Dugan, Gaitley, McDevitt,
-and many others of equal note who have served prominently
-in this city and have been towers of strength to their co-religionists.
-The stature of Archbishop Carroll in his day was heroic, and he
-was regarded as one of the chief citizens of the republic, as his
-famous successor, Cardinal Gibbons, is today.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The similarity between Dr. Carroll and the cardinal on the lines
-of personal influence is remarkable. What Dr. Carroll was in his
-day a century ago, the cardinal is today, and the person who is
-familiar with the cardinal’s character knows what power and inspiration
-that is for good. Other prelates who were of Irish extraction
-and who labored here were Archbishops Neale and the illustrious
-Kenrick, the latter one of the greatest of church writers and
-a strong man of his day. In other denominations we have Dr. Patrick
-Allison, the first pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, and
-a remarkable man in many ways, who was the friend of Dr. Carroll,
-and his contemporary. Rev. John Glendy, a native of Ireland, who
-was a rebel in 1798, and had to fly for his life to this country, was
-the first pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church, and an orator
-of unusual ability. In their day they were strong men, and exercised
-an overmastering influence for good upon their flocks. Rev.
-John Healey was the first Baptist minister in Baltimore town, and
-founded the first Baptist chapel. He ministered here for many
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_72'>72</span>years and was without doubt an influential man. The congregations
-of the Presbyterian and Baptist churches included a number of
-prominent Irish business and professional men, in fact the cream of
-the business men of the town and city belonged to them. Hence
-they were widespread centers of influence and they have so remained.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Their descendants to this day include many of Baltimore’s leading
-citizens in all lines of activity. The first Methodist preacher that
-we know of who preached in the vicinity of this city was Robert
-Strawbridge, the Irishman. He preached about the countryside, it
-being as much a felony for a Methodist preacher to preach as it was
-for a Catholic priest to say mass in his day in Maryland. We know
-that there were several well-known Irishmen who were among the
-first members of the first M. E. church, old Light Street, now Mount
-Vernon Place Church; among them being Patrick Colvin and Patrick
-Bennett. This Colvin afterwards was buried from the old
-Light Street church, which caught fire during his funeral, and was
-burned to the ground. His daughter founded the old Colvin Institute
-in his honor, and Colvin Street is named after him. He was
-an influential merchant as well as a leading Methodist.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The first mayor of the city, James Calhoun, was an Irish-American.
-The first secretary of the navy from Maryland was an Irishman,
-James McHenry, after whom the fort is named. It is well
-to remark that Fort Carroll is also named after Charles Carroll, the
-Irish-American. The first secretary of state and attorney-general
-from Maryland was Robert Smith, son of John Smith, the Irishman.
-Gen. Samuel Smith, the Revolutionary hero, who served more years
-than any other from this state in the United States Senate, also commanded
-the forces at the battle of North Point and the defense of
-Fort McHenry. The first and only chief justice of the United
-States from Maryland was Roger Brooke Taney, the Irish-American,
-who was also an attorney-general of the United States. One
-of the two secretaries of the navy from this state was John Pendleton
-Kennedy, the Irish-American. All of these facts serve to show that
-the Irish have played some part in public affairs in this city and
-state.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Past and present, the Irish element has been so closely identified
-with the history of Baltimore that it has played an important part
-in influencing every detail of the life of the city. Deny it as some
-will, the influence is still apparent in the city’s spheres, probably
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_73'>73</span>not so prominently as in the long ago, but still markedly. Prosperity
-has somewhat dulled the ambition of the local Gael, but that he
-is still in evidence, commercially, religiously, professionally, socially
-and industrially, the shallowest of investigations will prove. The
-readiness of the Irishman to assimilate with other nationalities in
-our country may have had something to do with the disappearance
-from the prominent places which they formerly occupied of the leading
-families of the city who bear the names of the splendid men
-who at one time led in the city’s advance. But considerable of the
-wealth and the influence of the city is still held by the descendants
-of these old pioneers, and by those who have succeeded them in the
-life of the City of the Calverts.</p>

- <h2 class='c004'>LOOKING BACK AT OLD CAMBRIDGE, MASS.</h2>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c005'>Extract from an address by Prof. Charles Eliot Norton at a meeting
-of the Cambridge (Mass.) Historical Society, October 30, 1905:
-“But even a greater change than that from country village to suburban
-town has taken place here in Old Cambridge in the last seventy
-years. The people have changed. In my boyhood the population
-was practically all of New England origin, and in large proportion
-Cambridge-born, and inheritors of Old Cambridge traditions. The
-fruitful invasion of barbarians had not begun. The foreign-born
-people could be counted up on the fingers. There was Rule, the
-excellent Scotch gardener, who was not without points of resemblance
-to Andrew Fairservice; there was Sweetman, the one Irish
-day-laborer, faithful and intelligent, trained as a boy in one of the
-‘hedge-schools’ of his native Ireland, and ready to lean on his spade
-and put the troublesome schoolboy to a test on the Odes of Horace,
-or even on the <i><span lang="la" xml:lang="la">Arma virumque cano</span></i>; and at the heart of the village
-was the hair-cutter, Marcus Reamie, from some unknown foreign
-land, with his shop full, in a boy’s eyes, of treasures, some of his
-own collecting, some of them brought from distant romantic parts
-of the world by his sailor son. There were doubtless other foreigners,
-but I do not recall them, except a few teachers of languages in
-the college, of whom three filled in these and later years an important
-place in the life of the town,—Dr. Beck, Dr. Follen and Mr.
-Sales.”</p>

-<p class='c009'>“<span class='sc'>Sir</span>: The subject of procuring a suitable place for a general
-Catholic burial ground in this city has, for a long time, excited a
-deep interest among us. I beg leave, therefore, to suggest a few
-remarks on the best method to be adopted for the accomplishment
-of so desirable an object, before any definite measures are taken for
-a permanent location.</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>“It appears by a hand-bill circulated a few days ago, that the
-trustees of St. Patrick’s Church, without consulting the Catholics
-of this city, have bought a tract of land opposite the Botanic Garden,
-a distance of between four and five miles from the city hall;
-that the nature of the soil is entirely unfit for the said purpose;
-and that this place has been actually appropriated by them for a
-general Catholic burial ground.</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>“Query? Have the trustees of that church or any of the other
-Catholic churches in this city the right to act definitely upon this
-general subject without previously ascertaining the opinion and
-obtaining the consent of the heads of families belonging to this
-Catholic community?</p>

-</div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c009'><span class='pageno' id='Page_75'>75</span>“This question ought to be fairly discussed before any final decision
-is made on the location of the contemplated cemetery; and I
-hope the columns of your widely circulated paper will be always
-open for the discussion of this point of general interest.</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>“This affair, in the humble opinion of the writer, ought to be
-managed by a separate board, composed of the Right Rev. Bishop
-of the diocese and two members from each congregation, duly elected
-by the pewholders of the several Catholic churches of this city, with
-power to select the ground, the location, to make regulations, etc.,
-etc. This suggestion is made with the view of ascertaining the
-sense of the Catholics of this city (who have very liberally contributed
-to the support of their several churches and charitable institutions)
-respecting this interesting question which agitates their
-minds.</p>

-<p class='c009'>“And a Catholic resident of the city of New York.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>At the meeting of the trustees on March 6, 1833, every member
-present pledged himself to use his utmost endeavor “in finding and
-prosecuting the invaders of the vault out of town,” which seems to
-indicate that the opposition to the up-town movement had taken a
-very radical turn. Previous to this, however, the idea of locating
-the graveyard there was abandoned, and on August 29, 1832, a committee
-of five trustees appointed to provide “a good and convenient
-location for a new graveyard,” paid $37,050 to Alderman Charles
-Henry Hall for the block bounded by East Eleventh and Twelfth
-streets, First Avenue and Avenue A.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>It is related that Mr. Hall soon after repented of his bargain
-and offered to pay $50,000 if the block were deeded back to him.
-The offer was refused, but 100 feet in depth on three sides of the
-plot was sold to lighten the debt and the rest of the land, 413x206
-feet, was devoted to cemetery purposes. Permission for the first
-interment was given on March 13, 1833, and from that date until
-the old Eleventh Street burial ground was officially closed in
-August, 1848, the total number of interments made in its limits was
-41,016. As has been stated, the interments in St. Patrick’s graveyard,
-from May 25, 1813, to March, 1833, were 32,153, so that in
-these two old downtown graveyards in thirty-five years, a total of
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_76'>76</span>73,169 Catholics were buried. These figures are taken from Archbishop
-Corrigan’s paper on “The Catholic Cemeteries of New
-York” and are therefore official. The Avenue A end of the Eleventh
-Street plot was originally a hollow and had to be filled in
-about eighteen feet above the level at the time of its purchase.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>There was a wooden fence around the property at first and this
-was replaced by the iron railing that now encloses it. The high
-brick wall around St. Patrick’s was put up just before the anti-Catholic
-excitement of 1836 and served as a protection to the old
-church that largely helped, when manned by stout defenders, to
-awe the mob that assembled to plunder and destroy it. In the same
-year, June 5, 1836, it was determined to rebuild St. Peter’s Church
-in Barclay Street. The graves in the little space about the church
-were opened and most of the remains reinterred in St. Patrick’s
-graveyard. Some of the pioneers were left undisturbed and still
-repose under the walls of the new church built over the old site.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The dead who sleep about the walls of old St. Patrick’s made up
-the very flower of the pioneer families, mainly Irish, who built up
-the church in New York. Among the long list are the first pastors
-and their assistants, Fathers Michael O’Gorman, Richard Bulger,
-Charles Brennan and Peter Malou—who was a general in the Belgium
-army and then a Jesuit. One of his sons became a bishop in
-his native land—Fathers Luke Berry, of St. Mary’s; Gregory B.
-Pardow, an uncle of the Jesuit of our day; James Neale, Carberry
-J. Byrne, Thomas C. Levins, John N. Smith of St. James’ and Dr.
-John Power, V. G. The remains of the bishops of the See, except
-the first, were transferred from old St. Patrick’s to the crypt of the
-Fifth Avenue Cathedral after it was opened.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The parents of Cardinal McCloskey were buried in old St. Patrick’s
-and so were a son of the famous French general, Moreau,
-Capt. Pierre Laudais, of the navy, who fought with Paul Jones in
-the Revolution; Thomas, the father of the great lawyer, Charles
-O’Conor; Thomas S. Brady, father of James T. and Judge John
-R. Brady; Capt. James McKeon, of the army in 1812 and father
-of John McKeon; Andrew Morris, Stephen Jumel, Dominick Lynch
-and his numerous children; John B. Lasala, the Denmans, the Hargous,
-Binsse, Coughlan, Brandegee, De Londe, Shea, O’Brien and
-other prominent old New York families.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In the Eleventh Street graveyard the 41,016 dead are of a later
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_77'>77</span>period, but include many names of special local interest on the
-old stones, such as the Murphy, Lynch, Carroll, Hanly, Sweeney,
-Bradley, Davey, McMahon, Holahan, and other families. A local
-character, who died September 26, 1838, and was buried here, was
-an Italian named Joseph Bonfanti, who kept what might be called
-the first “department store” in New York. It was located at 297
-Broadway, and it was his boast that no one could go into his store
-and ask for anything in fancy articles he could not produce for sale.
-He advertised in rhymes and some of the efforts in this direction
-are wonderful productions. Local fame had it that he kept poets
-on salary to supply his needs in this direction. His tombstone told
-that he was born in Monticello, December 9, 1798, was “universally
-esteemed as an affectionate husband, a kind father and a sincere
-friend,” and that,—</p>

- <div class='line'>“Cheerful he journeyed through life’s chequered wild,</div>

- <div class='line'>Affection’s smile the sunshine of his heart.”</div>
- </div>
- </div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>Capt. John McMahon had a monument erected to him by the
-Montgomery Guards, of whom he was commander. He was a
-native of Limerick, Ireland, and died aged 37 years on April 17,
-1849.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Another epitaph was as follows:</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>“This tomb was erected by Rosanna, widow of John Connolly,
-Jr., carpenter, of Gargin, parish of Killaly, County of
-Galway, Ireland, in memory of the most affectionate of husbands,
-who died in New York on the 6th day of March, 1841,
-aged —— years; as also her daughter Mary, who died on
-the 10th of August, 18—, aged —— months, as also her

-May their souls rest in peace.</p>
-
-<p class='c009'>“Dated Galway, Ireland, 1846. This stone has been sent
-her by her father-in-law, Michael Connolly.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The stone to the memory of James, son of Denis and Winifred
-Hanley, who died November 28, 1839, gave this advice:</p>

- </div>
- </div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>On October 29, 1845, the Alsop farm of about 115 acres in Newtown,
-Long Island, was purchased for a new place of burial, and
-at a special meeting of the trustees of St. Patrick’s on July 31, 1848,
-it was ordered that “the cemetery at Newtown Creek, recently consecrated
-in part should be called Calvary, and placed at the disposal
-of the public; that after August 2 the Eleventh Street burial
-ground as well as the free vault at Fiftieth Street, should be permanently
-closed.” Calvary Cemetery began to be used August 4,
-1848, when the first interment, that of Esther Ennis, was made.
-Subsequent purchases of land made the territory consecrated to the
-burial of the dead more than 300 acres. From August, 1848, to
-January, 1898, there were 644,761 interments there.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From January, 1898, to the present, there have been about 200,000

-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>I am going to unfold for you a chapter of unwritten history; to
-tell you in a brief way the story of the part played by men of Erin
-in the early life of this city—from the time of its settlement in
-the year 1630 down to the opening of the Revolution.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Historical works do not touch the narrative, Cullen’s <cite>Story of
-the Irish in Boston</cite> excepted. Yet even that, admirable as it is and
-much as it contains, falls far short of giving a complete account.
-I know not the reasons for this inexcusable neglect of historians,
-but I have my opinions on the matter.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The story should have been written for two reasons at least; (1)
-because the Irish were here in large numbers at the period of which
-I am treating; and (2) they rendered important services to the
-community.</p>

-</div>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_79'>79</span>This paper will develop some interesting and striking facts concerning
-the early history of Boston, and to Americans of Irish blood,
-unless they be students of colonial history, it would prove a revelation
-were they to read it. You will see from this narrative that
-the Irish of those by-gone days were not all hewers of wood and
-drawers of water, despite the tremendous handicaps of racial and
-religious hostility and the disproportion of the numbers in comparison
-to the English.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>On the contrary, some of them shone as patriots and statesmen;
-in the fields of art and invention; and in various ways of lesser importance
-there were many whose names deserve recording in a discourse
-of this nature.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Some years ago I became interested in a letter which appeared in
-one of our daily papers containing a few facts about the pioneer
-store-keeper of Boston—the first person to start a business here
-and thus earn for himself the title of “The Father of Boston Merchants.”
-The reason for my interest lay in the fact that he was
-an Irishman. His name was John Cogan.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Histories of Boston and the chapters on colonial Boston in the
-histories of the United States, as might be expected, both ignore the
-story of John Cogan, and you would search the city in vain were
-you looking for a memorial of any sort to him. Neither is there
-tablet nor memorial of any sort marking the site of that humble little
-shop, which was the first link of the great chain of mercantile establishments
-which have followed in its wake. Historical spots of even
-less interest are, and properly, suitably marked, but for some reason
-the site of Boston’s first place of business has been ignored by our
-municipal authorities and historical societies.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>I determined to try to rescue John Cogan’s name from the practical
-oblivion which enshrouded it and discover details of his career
-sufficient for a newspaper or magazine article. My researches into
-the musty records of the past were well rewarded and my discoveries
-I hope to give the public through some reputable magazine or
-journal in the near future.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>It was while engaged in this long and laborious work that I discovered
-a new vein, as it were, in Boston’s history, and following it
-up I found much of the material which goes to make up this paper
-and which suggested its preparation.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Had it been our good fortune to have had a directory containing
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_80'>80</span>the names of the residents of Boston each year since its settlement
-we would have found in every one of those works, with perhaps the
-exception of the first two, Keltic names, and in the entire period of
-which I treat some thousands of them.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Undoubtedly these statements surprise you. Naturally. Yet I
-could easily make them good. And furthermore I believe it to be
-quite likely that if we made a careful research among the names
-of the Kelts in colonial Boston that we could easily duplicate ten
-per cent or more of those borne by readers of this article.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Of the thousands of these names I have compiled I select a few
-for illustration—Blake, Barrett, Boyce, Bryan, Bishop, Boyle and
-Burk; Collins, Carey, Connell, Conner, Casey and Cunningham;
-Drury and Downing; Flannagan; Griffin; Healy, Hart, Harkins
-and Hurley; Kennedy; Lynch and Lane; Murphy, Moore, Martin,
-Mackey and McLean; Norton and Neale; Power and Powell;
-Strain; Timmins; Welch.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The children of Erin began coming here from practically the
-foundation of Boston. As Cullen says: “English of all things, it
-(Boston) was of necessity anti-Irish, and classed this unfortunate
-people with the heathen tribes of the forest; yet, among her earliest
-records appears the distinctively Irish names of Cogan, Barry, Connors,
-MacCarty, Kelly; throughout her colonial history, when the
-wild Irish, the Pope, the Devil and the Pretender were classed
-together and hated in the lump, the Irish were in their midst,
-though Irish Catholicity remained till near the Revolution almost
-unrepresented.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Yet this fact is disputed. One well known newspaper writer of
-Boston, an Irishman, too, declares: “It is quite safe to say that there
-were no Irish at that time (1630) among the settlers.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Now that assertion may or may not be true. But I would say in
-reply to it that if the Irish were not here as early as 1630 there
-was at least one representative of the race in the colony in 1632<a id='r4' /><a href='#f4' class='c014'><sup>[4]</sup></a>
-and another in 1634<a id='r5' /><a href='#f5' class='c014'><sup>[5]</sup></a>, both prominent, too, by the way, and Irish
-have been here ever since.</p>
-
-<div class='footnote' id='f4'>
-<p class='c011'><a href='#r4'>4</a>. John Cogan, already alluded to.</p>
-</div>
-
-<div class='footnote' id='f5'>
-<p class='c011'><a href='#r5'>5</a>. William Hibbens.</p>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c011'>The gentleman referred to also says: “Up to that time (1647)
-there was practically no infusion of Irish blood in New England.”
-In reply to that I would answer that if the other large centers of
-New England had as many Kelts as did Boston up to and including
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_81'>81</span>1647—and I would not be surprised if they had—this gentleman’s
-statement would stand disproved.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Under Cromwell’s government many Irish people were sent to
-New England. On their arrival they were sold as servants or
-slaves by those at whose charge they were brought here. This
-slavery, however, was only temporary, and generally for a period
-of four years. It was distinctly understood that this service of the
-Irish was to be in direct payment for the trouble and expense of
-transporting them.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The men of Irish blood were not prominent in the early story
-of the colony, with a few exceptions. But that was neither their
-fault nor to their discredit. The reasons for this were in brief the
-racial antipathy on the part of the colonists; their hatred of the
-religion professed by the mass of the Kelts; the social ostracism of
-the English toward the children of Erin; the legislation in Ireland
-which forced the natives into, and kept them in, ignorance from an
-educational standpoint; their poverty, another heritage of England’s
-misrule of their country and the smallness of their numbers
-in comparison with the English settlers.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>But time works wonders and brings its revenges! The erstwhile
-tiny English and Puritan colony has become a great city, one of the
-greatest in America, in fact, and the stronghold of the Catholic and
-Kelt. Only the other day it was governed by a man of that faith
-and blood, and he was the successor of four other mayors born in
-Ireland or descended from Irish people, while the majority of the
-leading city officials were of the same class.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In the professions and business life also men of Irish blood are
-making a good showing here. And as to religion, our clergy of
-Keltic blood outnumber those of all other nationalities and so do
-they all the non-Catholic ministers combined.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>I know you will be now interested to hear of John Cogan, to
-whom I referred in the beginning of this paper. For a quarter of a
-century he was prominently identified with the colony—from 1632
-until his death in 1658. He probably came from Cork. The late
-John B. Reagan, of Dorchester, noted for his historical research
-regarding the Irish in America, said of the first of Boston’s Keltic
-citizens: “Among those who came over in the so-called Winthrop
-fleet, composed of ‘people from all parts,’ were several merchants
-from the maritime ports of Ireland, of whom John Cogan was one.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_82'>82</span>In my researches for details of Cogan’s career I found this reference
-to him, from Lechford’s Notebook: “Whether John Cogan, of
-Boston, Mass., was related to this family (the Cogans of Chard,
-Eng.,) or not I do not know. He appears to have been from
-Devonshire, as in 1639 he gave Isaac Northcut, of Honiton, a power
-of attorney to receive any legacy under the will of his mother,
-Eleanor Cogan, of Tiverton, in Devon.” Still, this would not
-prove that Cogan was English, as thousands of Irish have settled
-in England from an early period.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Cogan was virtually one of the founders of Boston, one of its
-leading citizens, one of its wealthiest and most enterprising, and a
-pillar and one of the founders of the First Church. And I am glad
-to say that the colonists were sensible enough to so far overcome
-their prejudices as to appreciate what sort of man he was, for they
-honored him with numerous public offices and positions of trust.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He was a member of the first board of selectmen and served in
-that capacity for a long time; a juror in the Court of Assistants;
-one of a committee to allot land for the inhabitants to plant on and
-of another committee to allot land on the Neck and in East Boston;
-one of a committee to erect fortifications on Fort Hill and its treasurer;
-a member of the grand jury; a surveyor of the highways; a
-constable. The full list of offices he held would be too long to
-give here.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He opened the first store in 1633 or 1634. It stood on Washington
-Street opposite the Old State House, on the northeast corner.
-Colonial records fail to state what class of goods our pioneer store-keeper
-dealt in, or how long he conducted his shop, or whether he
-made it a success, which I venture to predict, in view of his career,
-he did.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He proved himself a shrewd and energetic business man and became
-wealthy for the times in which he lived. He was the proprietor
-of a large amount of real estate, including two stores and half
-an acre of land, which is now covered by the store of Houghton &amp;
-Dutton, and corn mills in Charlestown and Malden.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>He was one of the builders of Long wharf, the oldest in Boston
-and the one with the most interesting history. He served as sergeant
-in that organization of, as somebody has facetiously dubbed
-them, “bottle-scared veterans,” the Ancient and Honorable Artillery
-Company.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_83'>83</span>Among his benefactions was a gift of 70 acres to Harvard College.
-I might state in passing that Cogan was one of the settlers of Dorchester,
-which colony was founded in the same year as was Boston,
-1630, and lived there until his removal here in 1632.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Some few weeks ago the daily papers chronicled the death of the
-oldest alumnus of Harvard College and Boston’s oldest attorney.
-This was Charles A. Welch of Cohasset, Mass. Welch was the descendant
-of John Welch, who was recorded in Boston as a tax-payer
-as early as 1682, and who wedded Elizabeth White. The distinguished
-lawyer had as his great grandfather John Welch, who served
-as commander of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company,
-while the father of the lawyer was a noted wood carver and made the
-famous codfish which adorns the State House and also the great
-figure-head of Andrew Jackson which ornamented the bow of the
-American frigate <i>Constitution</i>.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Another descendant of this John Welch of colonial Boston, and
-brother of the lawyer, was Edward H. Welch, who had the happiness
-not only of returning to the church of his ancestors, but also
-of becoming a member of the Society of Jesus. The lawyer and
-priest numbered among their cousins the present Episcopalian
-Bishop of Fond du Lac, the Right Reverend Charles C. Grafton;
-and Mrs. Abbott, wife of the late Judge Abbott. In a word, John
-Welch of colonial Boston was the progenitor of a distinguished
-family.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>How many of you could tell me who made the first piano-forte
-in America? And the first bass-viol? And the artificial leg with
-joints? And the first pack of playing cards? If you don’t know, it
-is not a matter of surprise, for those achievements are not chronicled
-in our histories.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Well, I’ll tell you. There lived in Dorchester or Milton between
-the years 1640 and 1650 a lad named Teague Crehore, who, it is
-said, had been stolen from his parents in Ireland.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>One of his descendants was Benjamin Crehore, who was born in
-Milton. He was a remarkable genius. He it was who made the
-first piano-forte in America, manufactured the first bass-viols and
-invented the artificial leg with joints.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>And it was Thomas Crehore, a nephew of Benjamin Crehore and
-the son of William Crehore, a chair maker, and of the fifth generation
-of Teague Crehore, who manufactured the first playing cards
-in America.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_84'>84</span>Thomas Crehore was a native of Dorchester and born in 1769.
-At the age of thirty-two he bought the land on which he built his
-factory and house. The industry continued there (in Milton Lower
-Mills, on the Neponset River, I believe) until 1846, when the factory
-was burned down. Mr. Crehore died in the same year, leaving
-a large estate.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Crehores and John Cogan were not the only Kelts who were
-business pioneers here in the early days. The first paper manufactured
-in America was made in Dorchester and three Irishmen,
-while not actually starting it, may be said to have been among the
-founders and promoters of the industry (their predecessors having
-for only a short time conducted it). These were Capt. James Boies,
-Jeremiah Smith and Hugh McLean. Cullen in his <cite>Story of
-the Irish in Boston</cite>, says: “If to Mr. Smith belonged the credit of
-being the first individual paper manufacturer, to others of his countrymen
-is due the fact that the Neponset River was made by them
-the basis of paper manufacturing in the North American colonies.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Boies was born in Ireland in 1702 and died in Milton at the age
-of ninety-six years. He was with General Wolfe in the battle on
-the Plains of Abraham. By direction of General Washington, Captain
-Boies directed the work of transporting the fagots, in which
-300 teams were engaged, that were used in fortifying Dorchester
-Heights, following which event the British evacuated Boston.
-Boies was one of a committee of three which drew up instructions
-for the representatives of the town of Milton, wherein it was voted
-that the colony would support the Continental Congress with their
-lives and their fortunes in the event of hostilities with England.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Jeremiah Smith was a native of Ireland and born in 1705. At
-the age of twenty-one he came to Boston and in 1737 removed to
-Milton. In that year he became superintendent of a paper industry
-started by some men, including Thomas Hancock, a few years
-before. Four years later he was its owner. He carried on the business
-until 1775, when he retired, after amassing a fortune.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Smith was an intimate friend of Governor Hutchinson and also of
-Governor Hancock, at whose hospitable board the wits of the day
-were wont to gather. Smith was seldom absent on such occasions,
-and if he were blessed with the characteristic Keltic wit, as presumably
-he was, he must have added largely to the entertainment
-of Hancock and his guests.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_85'>85</span>Hugh McLean, the third of the trio, was born in Ireland in 1724.
-He married a daughter of Boies and while in partnership with him
-became wealthy. He died in Milton at the age of seventy-five.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Col. John C. Linehan, in his work <cite>The Irish Scots and the
-“Scotch-Irish,”</cite> says: “Massachusetts had received, before the Revolution,
-a fair proportion of the Irish, for which the race has received
-but little credit.&nbsp;*&nbsp;*&nbsp;* The chronicles of the town of Boston,
-Mass., are full of enactments to keep the Irish out, but it was found
-to be impossible. They would come despite the prejudice, for
-Massachusetts was the most progressive of the colonies, and these
-people, or many of them, being artisans, spinners, weavers, shoemakers,
-ropemakers, etc., their labor became welcome, and a compromise
-was made by obliging those of them who were well-to-do to
-furnish bonds for their poorer countrymen and women, to the end
-that they would not become public charges.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>And again: “As early as 1780 and 1790 John Sullivan, Patrick
-Connor and Michael Carney were associated in the manufacture of
-paper at Dorchester, Mass.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Properly speaking, I should not quote this statement in my paper,
-as the dates mentioned are later than the limit of time with which
-my subject treats; but I deemed it fitting to do so as being supplementary
-to those facts given about the other three Kelts engaged in
-the business.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Among the chaplains of the French fleet which assisted the Americans
-in the Revolution was Abbe Robin. He wrote a series of letters
-to a friend describing his travels in this country; the first, dated
-in Boston, contained this paragraph:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“The Irish Presbyterians, discontented with their landlord at
-home and attracted by similarity of sentiment, have established in
-this place, with some success, manufactories of linen, and have made
-some attempts at broadcloths; those that have been lately manufactured
-are close and well woven, but hard and coarse; their hat
-manufactories have succeeded not better than the cloths; they are
-thick, spongy and without firmness, and come far short of the beauty
-and solidity of ours.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Now it is fair to infer that these industries were not started since
-the beginning of the Revolution. Those things are not done in
-war-times for very obvious reasons. That they had been in operation
-for some years may be taken for granted.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_86'>86</span>And now here is evidence showing that one of these industries was
-started a long time previous to the date of the Abbe’s letter. The
-<cite>American Cyclopedia</cite> says: “Some of the Scotch-Irish settlers in
-Boston in 1720 introduced the linen manufacture, which exercised
-much interest and was greatly encouraged, spinning-schools being
-established.” I didn’t know until I read this paragraph that there
-was such an individual as a “Scotch-Irishman” in Boston in the early
-days. The writers of the records never found one; or if they did,
-failed to recognize him.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Now a word as to the alleged “Scotch-Irish” of early times in
-Boston: Thomas Hamilton Murray, secretary of the American-Irish
-Historical Society, says on the subject:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“The Massachusetts colonial records repeatedly mention the
-‘Irish,’ not the Scotch-Irish. Cotton Mather in a sermon in 1700
-says: ‘At length it was proposed that a colony of Irish be sent over
-to check the growth of this countrey.’ No prefix there&nbsp;*&nbsp;*&nbsp;*</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“Cullen describes the arrival at Boston in 1717 of Captain Robert
-Temple ‘with a number of Irish Protestants.’ Captain Temple was,
-in 1740, elected to the Charitable Irish Society. In another place
-Cullen alludes to ‘the Irish spinners and weavers who landed in
-Boston in the early part of the eighteenth century.’”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>One of the early citizens of Boston was William Hibbens, of Ireland,
-who came here in 1634. Like his countryman, John Cogan,
-he became prominent and wealthy. He was referred to in the colonial
-records as a gentleman. He served for a long time on the
-board of selectmen; as magistrate, agent of the colony in England,
-treasurer of the town stock; deputy to the General Court; highway
-surveyor; member of the commission to fortify Castle Island, and
-in other offices also labored for the interests of his townsmen.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Hibbens wedded Mrs. Ann Moore, a widow, and sister of Governor
-Bellingham. He died in 1654. Mrs. Hibbens was hung for
-alleged witchcraft two years later. She left her property to her
-two sons, John and Joseph Moore, of Ballyhorick, County Cork, Ire.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>John Casey of Muddy River, as the now aristocratic town of
-Brookline was called in early days, was a participant in that conflict
-with the Indians known as King Philip’s War, fought in 1675–6.
-He took part in the attack on the Red Men’s fort in the Great
-Swamp in Rhode Island and was wounded in the engagement.</p>

-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_87'>87</span>The name Collins is found frequently in the early records. Edward Collins was a resident of Cambridge as early as 1646. He
-was a merchant. Christopher Collins, a shoemaker, lived in Dedham
-as early as 1645. William Collins was in Boston as early as
-1646. He was the New England agent of Mathew Craddock of
-London, a merchant. John Collins became a “freeman” in 1646.
-Timothy Collins, a servant, was brought to Boston in 1764 on a
-schooner which came from Halifax and Cork. Four years later
-came a lad set down in the records as William Collen, brought here
-on a sloop from Windsor.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Ann Collins, a servant, arrived here from Ireland in 1767. Captain
-Palfrey Collins came into port in 1768. Clement Collins was
-one of a number of citizens who lodged their arms with the selectmen
-in 1774. He gave up a gun and a blunderbuss. Joseph Collins,
-on January 1, 1775, was nominated a watchman. In the
-company of which Captain Allen was commander in 1698 was
-Mathew Collins. In a public school kept here by Samuel Holyoke,
-Daniel Collins was a pupil in 1753. Thomas Collins, a farmer,
-came here in 1765 on a sloop from Fort Cumberland. John Collins
-was a constable in 1657. Henry Collins was made a freeman
-in 1636–7 and Edward Collins in 1640.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Healy was another name of which I find mention on numerous
-occasions in colonial days. William Healy, who was here as early
-as 1645, figured in a number of real estate transactions and had
-business dealings with Governor Dudley.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>One of the leading Keltic families of colonial Boston was the
-McCarthys. Thaddeus McCarthy was here as early as 1666. He
-was an officer of the town in 1674 and a member of the Ancient
-and Honorable Artillery Company in 1681.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>One of his sons, if I mistake not, was Florence McCarthy, who
-became one of the leading citizens of the town, a man of wealth and
-a successful dealer in provisions. He was one of the founders of
-the first Episcopal church in New England. He was here as early
-as 1686 and died in 1712. He left an estate valued at £2,922, including
-his farm, which embraced the land in Roxbury on which the
-Marcella Street Home stood.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Another son was Captain William McCarthy, who was the best
-known ship-owner in the town. Still another was Thomas McCarthy.
-He was chosen a constable in 1727, but was not anxious to
-serve in that capacity. A fourth son was Thaddeus McCarthy, who
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_88'>88</span>was graduated from Harvard College, was pastor of the First
-Church in Worcester for thirty-seven years and became the father
-of fifteen children.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>A brother of this Thaddeus McCarthy, the minister, was Captain
-William McCarthy, who served as quartermaster of the Fifteenth
-Massachusetts Regiment in the Revolution, and a son was Dr. Thaddeus
-McCarthy, who became a noted medical practitioner in Fitchburg,
-Mass., and Keene, N. H. A Charles Maccarty took part in
-the expedition against Quebec in 1690 and was badly wounded.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>I will not vouch positively that I have stated accurately the relations
-to one another of these Maccarthys. There is a little difference
-in one or two statements in this matter by at least two good authorities,
-Bernard Cullen, author of <cite>The Story of the Irish in Boston</cite>,
-and the late Col. John C. Linehan of Concord, N. H., author of
-numerous articles on the early Irish residents of New England.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Now I am going to give you a few tid-bits, as it were, from the
-colonial records and other sources:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“Derman Mahoone is fined 20 shillings for intertaining two Irishwomen”
-in 1657. In other words, he simply gave them the hospitality
-of his home in a legitimate way. But that was against the
-law—for the Irish.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“Margaret Noriss, an Irishwoman is admitted to the town.” That
-was in 1658.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>John Martin, a ship carpenter, was a resident in 1637 and was
-admitted an inhabitant in the following year.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>John Moore was the servant of the governor in 1639.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Myles Tarne, a leather dresser, was here as early as 1642.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>From the records of 1646 I quote: “John Berry is put an apprentice
-to Edward Keyly for seaven years.” Berry, undoubtedly, is a
-corruption of Barry, and Keyly of Kelly or Kiley.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>I hardly need to remind you, in mentioning this, that the spelling
-of the keepers of the colonial records was something atrocious.
-William Healy, to whom I referred a moment ago, had his name
-spelled in at least five different ways.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>James Carey was chosen town clerk of Charlestown in 1662.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>A great fire occurred in Boston in 1760. Among those whose
-homes were destroyed were Captain Killeran and Michael Carroll.
-They lived in the district which we used to know as Fort Hill.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>In 1659 Governor Endicott united in marriage John Morrell and
-Lysbell Morrell, both Irish, say the records.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><span class='pageno' id='Page_89'>89</span>James Cochran, an Irish boy, was captured by Indians in those
-early days. He was a brave youth and managed to kill a couple of
-savages and make his escape. <cite>The Boston News-Letter</cite> of April 29,
-1725, said of him: “James Cochran, ye youth that came into Brunswick
-with two scalps, came into town on Monday last and on Tuesday
-produced ye same scalps before ye Honorable Lieutenant-Governor
-and Council, for which he received a reward of two hundred
-pounds. And for ye farther encouragement of young men and
-others to perform bold and hardy actions in ye Indian war, His
-Honor ye Lieutenant Governor has been pleased to make him sargeant
-in ye forces.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Verily, a good type of the Fighting Race!</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Now to come down to the second half of the period of time which
-I am considering. One of the most picturesque and interesting
-figures in the history of Boston was John Hancock, whom, some
-claim, had Irish blood in his veins. He was a staunch patriot, statesman,
-leader in public affairs, governor of the Commonwealth, orator
-and the first signer of the Declaration of Independence (which, by
-the way, with only his signature as president of the Continental Congress
-and that of Charles Thomson, a native of Maghera, Ire., as
-secretary, was sent forth to the world, the other names being added
-to it later).</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>As a bit of evidence which may help to indicate Hancock’s
-ancestry, it may be worth mentioning that he presented a bell and
-vane to the Irish Presbyterian Church in Boston.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>A copy of <cite>The Tyrone, Ireland, Constitution</cite>, issued some time in
-or prior to 1876, contained these statements: “Those who are conversant
-with <cite>Reid’s History of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland</cite>
-are aware that multitudes of Protestants left Ulster for the plantations
-of North America. John Hancock’s ancestor was among that
-number.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>And again: “It is stated by reliable authorities that the ancestors
-of John Hancock emigrated from near Downpatrick, Co. Down,
-Ire., and settled in Boston toward the close of the seventeenth century.
-The Hancocks have been for centuries actively and largely
-engaged in the foreign and domestic trade of Newry, and it was,
-doubtless, in a commercial capacity that the first of the name came
-to Boston. The family to which President Hancock belonged is, it
-is said, now (1889) represented in Ireland by John Hancock of Lurgan,
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_90'>90</span>and by Neilson Hancock, the founder of the Irish Statistical
-Society. Anthony Hancock, who came from Ireland, resided in
-Boston in 1681, and he was evidently the founder of the family in
-America.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Equal to Hancock in patriotism and brilliant qualities was James
-Sullivan, who spent the last part of his life in Boston. He was a
-governor of Massachusetts, patriot, jurist, orator and author and
-shone conspicuously in his various roles. He was a brother of General
-John Sullivan, New Hampshire’s most distinguished Kelt,
-patriot, the soldier who struck the first blow for the freedom of his
-country, delegate to the Continental Congress, jurist and chief magistrate
-of the Granite State.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>These two great men were the sons of Owen Sullivan or O’Sullivan,
-who came from Ardea, Co. Kerry, while their mother was from
-Cork.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The year 1737 was notable in the annals of Boston as marking
-the birth of a lad who was destined, up to the present time, to
-become her greatest artist, “the American Vandyke,” as he was
-fittingly called. He was a painter of portraits and historical subjects,
-and doubtless many of you have seen some of the splendid
-works from his brush which enrich the Museum of Fine Arts. I
-refer to John Singleton Copley. He was the son of Irish parents
-(they were from County Clare), who settled in Boston in 1736.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Copley began his career under great disadvantages—without
-teacher or instruction, without model, without materials to practise.
-He even had to make his own palette and arrange what colors he
-used. Furthermore, he never saw a good picture until he left his
-native land. But notwithstanding all this, his genius triumphed.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>When twenty-three years old, Copley sent, without name or address,
-an exquisite portrait of his half-brother, entitled “The Boy
-and the Flying Squirrel,” to Benjamin West, the famous English
-painter, requesting that it be placed in the exhibition rooms of the
-Royal Academy in London. Though it was contrary to the rules
-of that institution to give such an honor to the work of unknown
-artists, this product of the young American Kelt was placed there
-because of its merits and through West’s influence. West himself
-made this comment on the painting: “What delicious coloring! It
-is worthy of Titian himself!”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Copley spent the latter part of his life in London, and after
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_91'>91</span>achieving the most brilliant success and receiving high honors, died
-in 1815.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Some of his biographers assert that Copley left America because
-of royalist tendencies, but this is untrue. He did so simply to perfect
-himself in his art. As a matter of fact, his sympathies and
-judgment were enlisted with his countrymen in their struggle for
-independence, as passages in his own and friends’ correspondence
-conclusively prove.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Among the Massachusetts men who signed the Declaration of
-Independence was Robert Treat Paine of Boston. Paine, according
-to what is believed to be good authorities, had Irish blood in his
-veins. He was the grandson of Robert Paine, who came here about
-the year 1698. This Robert Paine was a brother of Henry O’Neill
-of Dungannon, Co. Tyrone, a descendant of Shane the Proud,
-Prince of Ulster, and cousin of Sir Neal O’Neill, who perished in
-the Battle of the Boyne. Henry O’Neill changed his name to
-Paine, which had been borne by a parental ancestor, in order to
-preserve part of his estates. So says O’Hart, compiler of <cite>Irish
-Pedigrees</cite>.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Robert Treat Paine, signer of the Declaration of Independence,
-was born in Boston in 1731. He became a lawyer and conducted
-the prosecution of the English soldiers who perpetrated the “Boston
-Massacre,” as it is called. He served in the legislature and was
-a delegate to the Continental Congress from 1774 to 1778. When
-the State Constitution of Massachusetts was adopted in 1780 he was
-made attorney-general and served as such for six years, then becoming
-a judge of the Supreme Court.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Two of his descendants and namesakes are today prominent citizens
-of Boston, one a successful business man, while the other, his
-son, a few years ago was the candidate for governor on the Democratic
-ticket.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The first indication of the Irish in Boston giving any evidence of
-national spirit occurred in 1737, on St. Patrick’s Day, when twenty-six
-Protestant Kelts—they all belonged to the Irish Presbyterian
-Church—organized the Charitable Irish Society to aid unfortunate
-fellow countrymen and to cultivate a spirit of unity and harmony
-among all Irishmen in the Massachusetts colony and their descendants
-and to advance their interests socially and morally. It has
-held meetings and celebrations from that day down to the present,
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_92'>92</span>except during the Revolution, in which a number of members took
-part. It has the distinction of being the oldest Irish society in
-America. Some of the charter members were the founders of
-distinguished families.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>One of the founders was Peter Pelham, stepfather of Copley, the
-artist. He was an engraver, painter and father of fine arts. The
-same year the society was founded the selectmen granted him permission
-to open a school for the education of children in reading,
-writing, needle-work, dancing and the art of painting on glass, etc.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Major-General Henry Knox, that brilliant and dashing soldier of
-the Revolution, and secretary of war, was also a member, as were his
-father and two uncles. General Knox was born in Boston in 1760.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The membership roll also contained the names of Capt. Robert
-Gardner, a wealthy and prominent citizen; Rev. John Moorehead,
-pastor of the Irish Presbyterian Church; William Hall, who was the
-first president of the Society and was a constable in 1730; John
-McLean, a slater, and who made repairs on Faneuil Hall; Captain
-James McGee, who had command of a vessel in the service of the
-commonwealth of Massachusetts Bay and which was wrecked during
-a great storm in 1778, when seventy-two of the crew perished; and
-William Moroney. The diary of Lieutenant Burton, published in
-the Revolutionary rolls of New Hampshire, mentions the appointment
-by Washington of Mr. Moroney as provost marshal of the
-army.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Among the soldiers serving in the Revolution was the son of Mr.
-Greaton, who kept the Greyhound Tavern in Roxbury. That boy
-became known to fame as General John Greaton. He belonged to
-the first company of minute men raised in America in 1775, and was
-chosen major, lieutenant-colonel and colonel of Heath’s regiment.
-After the battle of Lexington he was engaged in the skirmishes
-about Boston until he joined that memorable excursion to Quebec.
-He served throughout our struggle for independence and was one of
-Washington’s most trusted officers.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>William Connolly was another Boston Kelt who fought in the
-Revolution. And so was Michael Cassady. Cassady was one of
-the patriots at Valley Forge.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Among the residents of Milton in colonial days was Anthony Gulliver,
-who was born in Ireland in 1619. He was the ancestor of a
-large number of able and influential men and women who have been
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_93'>93</span>prominent in public and religious affairs of Milton, Mass., for nearly
-two centuries.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'><cite>The Story of the Irish in Boston</cite> contains the following interesting
-paragraph about a member of the Gulliver family:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“Capt. Lemuel Gulliver, who once lived at Algerine Corner, returned
-to Ireland in 1723 and gave a glowing description of the
-American country to his neighbor, Jonathan Swift. Lemuel’s imagination
-was vivid and fanciful and he turned it to a quaint account
-in this instance.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“He declared to Swift that ‘the frogs were as tall as his knees and
-had musical voices that were guitar-like in their tones; the mosquitoes’
-bills were as long as darning needles’; and from these exaggerated
-and fabulous accounts of the country the great Swift conceived
-and wrote the famous <cite>Gulliver’s Travels</cite>, which was published
-in 1726, displaying a unique union of misanthropy, satire, irony,
-ingenuity and humor.”</p>

- <h2 class='c004'>CONCERNING “AN IRISH MAN-OF-WAR.”</h2>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c005'>Further information is wanted regarding the following incident
-mentioned in <cite>Winthrop’s History of New England</cite>: “A ship from
-the Colonies, carrying fourteen guns&nbsp;*&nbsp;*&nbsp;* on a voyage to
-the Canaries about the close of the year 1644, fought nearly all

-where 1,500 Kentucky and Tennessee riflemen killed or wounded
-2,117 of England’s choicest troops, including their commander, General
-Pakenham, who was brother-in-law of the Iron Duke.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>I saw while on the field an unfinished monument in honor of the
-brave men who won the battle. I made all the inquiries possible
-about the monument (which I regarded as a monument of ingratitude),
-but could find no one who could give me any information
-concerning it. I even wrote to the <cite>Picayune</cite> suggesting that as the
-exposition to celebrate the Louisiana Purchase was about to be held,
-the event would be a good opportunity to raise the funds necessary
-to finish the monument, but nothing was done and it still remains
-as a reproach to the last generation as well as to this.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Of course you know that the treaty of Ghent was signed on Christmas
-Day, 1814, so it was three weeks after that that the battle was
-fought; but it came in time to redeem the series of blunders that
-characterized the so-called campaign on the Canadian frontier. In
-this connection permit me to say that the house we live in was
-bought from a gentleman whose two grandfathers were present at
-the battle. I knew a man when I was a boy who fought on the
-British side, and also fought on the fatal field of Waterloo, in the
-Twenty-seventh Inniskillen Foot.</p>
-
-<hr class='c012' />
-
-<p class='c011'>Following are the excerpts from General Jackson’s letter to which
-Mr. Morrison alludes above:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“The battle (says General Jackson) commenced at a very little
-before 7 a. m., January 8, 1815, and as far as the infantry was concerned
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_96'>96</span>it was over by 9 a. m. My force was very much mixed. I
-had portions of the 7th and 44th regular infantry regiments, Kentucky
-and Tennessee riflemen, Creoles, United States marines and
-sailors, Baratarian men—one of them, Captain Dominique You,
-commanded part of my artillery (and a famous gunner he was)—and
-two battalions of free negroes. I had in the action about 6,000
-men. The British strength was almost the same as mine, but vastly
-superior in drill and discipline. Of their force my riflemen killed
-and wounded 2,117 in less than an hour, including two general officers
-(both died on the field, each a division commander), seven full
-colonels, with seventy-five line and staff officers. I lost six killed
-and seven wounded.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“As to tactics, there were very little in use on either side. We
-had some works of earth fronting the river, but the Kentucky and
-Tennessee riflemen, who sustained the main attack, had protected
-themselves by a work about two feet and a half high, made of logs
-placed two feet apart, and the space between filled in with earth.
-This work began at the Mississippi River, and ended in the swamp,
-being at a right angle with the river.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“Thinking this the weakest portion of our line, and seeing ununiformed
-men behind the trifling defenses, General Pakenham
-thought it the best thing to begin his attack by carrying this part
-of my line with the bayonet. On the 3d of January I had ordered
-that each rifleman’s powder-horn be filled, and enough lead for 100
-bullets issued, besides good material for bullet-patching be furnished.
-This order required every soldier to thoroughly clean his
-rifle and put a new flint into the hammer; so we were ready as we
-could be for the attack.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“There was a very heavy fog on the river that morning, and the
-British had formed and were moving before I knew it. The disposition
-of the riflemen was very simple. They were told off in numbers
-one and two. Number one was to fire first, then step back and
-let number two shoot while he reloaded. About six hundred yards
-from the riflemen there was a great drainage canal running back
-from the Mississippi River to the swamp in the rear of the tilled
-land on which we were operating. Along this canal the British
-formed under the fire of the few artillery pieces I had, near enough
-to them to get their range. But the instant I saw them I said to
-Coffee, whom I directed to hurry to his line, which was to be first
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_97'>97</span>attacked: ‘By ——, we have got them; they are ours!’ Coffee
-dashed forward, and riding along his line, called out, ‘Don’t shoot
-till you can see their belt-buckles.’ The British were formed in
-mass, well closed up, and about two companies front.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“The British, thus formed, moved on at a quick step, without
-firing a shot, to within one hundred yards of the kneeling riflemen,
-who were holding their fire till they could see the belt-buckles of
-their enemies. The British advance was executed as though they
-had been on parade. They marched shoulder to shoulder, with the
-step of veterans, as they were. At one hundred yards’ distance from
-our line the order was given, ‘Extend column front. Double quick,
-march! Charge!’ With bayonets at the charge, they came on us
-at a run. I own it was an anxious moment; I well knew the charging
-column was made up of the picked troops of the British army.
-They had been trained by the duke himself, were commanded by his
-brother-in-law, and had successfully held off the ablest of Napoleon’s
-marshals in the Spanish campaign. My riflemen had never
-seen such an attack, nor had they ever before fought white men.
-The morning, too, was damp; their powder might not burn well.
-‘God help us!’ I muttered, watching the rapidly advancing line.
-Seventy, sixty, fifty, finally forty yards were they from the silent
-kneeling riflemen.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“All of my men I could see was their long rifles rested on the logs
-before them. They obeyed their orders well; not a shot was fired
-until the redcoats were within forty yards. I heard Coffee’s voice as
-he roared out: ‘Now, men, aim for the center of the cross-belts! Fire!’
-A second after the order a crackling, blazing flash ran all along
-our line. The smoke hung so heavily in the misty morning air that
-I could not see what had happened. I called Tom Overton and
-Abner Duncan, of my staff, and we galloped towards Coffee’s line.
-In a few seconds after the first fire there came another sharp, ringing
-volley. As I came within one hundred and fifty yards of Coffee,
-the smoke lifted enough for me to make out what was happening.
-The British were falling back in a confused, disorderly mass, and
-the entire first ranks of their column were blown away. For two
-hundred yards in our front the ground was covered with a mass of
-writhing wounded, dead and dying redcoats.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“By the time the rifles were wiped the British line was reformed,
-and on it came again. This time they were led by General Pakenham
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_98'>98</span>in person, gallantly mounted, and riding as though he was on
-parade. Just before he got within range of Coffee’s line, I heard
-a single rifle-shot from a group of country carts we had been using,
-about one hundred and seventy-five yards distant, and a moment
-thereafter I saw Pakenham reel and pitch out of his saddle. I have
-always believed he fell from the bullet of a free man of color, who
-was a famous rifle-shot, and came from the Atakappas region of
-Louisiana. The second advance was precisely like the first in its
-ending. In five volleys the 1,500 or more riflemen killed and
-wounded 2,117 British soldiers, two thirds of them killed dead or
-mortally wounded. I did not know where General Pakenham was
-lying, or I should have sent to him, or gone in person, to offer any
-service in my power to render.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“I was told he lived two hours after he was hit. His wound was
-directly through the liver and bowels. General Keene, I hear, was
-killed dead. They sent a flag to me, asking leave to gather up their
-wounded and bury their dead, which, of course, I granted. I was
-told by a wounded officer that the rank and file absolutely refused
-to make a third charge. ‘We have no chance with such shooting as
-these Americans do,’ they said.”</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Commenting on the letter, and after referring to Napoleon’s expressions
-of admiration for the American leader’s action at New
-Orleans, William Hugh Roberts, the noted writer, said:</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“This concludes the material part of General Jackson’s letter.
-It was in the feverish glories of the Hundred Days that Napoleon
-came into possession of Mr. Monroe’s translation. There was no
-doubt about the facts. There happened to be abroad then in France
-two or three American gentlemen who were accustomed to the use
-of the rifle. One of them selected a weapon out of the four sent
-from America to the French emperor, and in Napoleon’s presence
-did some really excellent sharpshooting at one hundred yards.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>“Had Napoleon won Waterloo, it is possible that he would have
-organized a corps of sharpshooters and armed them with the American
-rifle, which was capable of a more deadly accuracy than any
-European arm of the kind, not excepting even the rifle of Switzerland.
-General Jackson repeated the compliment of Napoleon to
-the typical American weapon to General William Selby Harney,
-then a field officer of dragoons, who in turn related the incident to
-the writer.”</p>

- <h2 class='c004'>ANENT THE SHANNON FAMILY.</h2>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c005'>Eleanor Lexington, in the <cite>Buffalo Sunday News</cite>, states that Nathaniel
-Shannon, who was born in Ireland 1655, came to this country
-when he was thirty-two years old and made his home in Boston,
-where in 1701 he was a member of the Old South Church. Twenty-two
-years later he died, and the stone marking his grave in the Old
-Granary Burying Ground in Boston is still standing. Nathaniel’s
-brother, Robert, was mayor of Derry in 1689, and Nathaniel was
-also a man of affairs, holding many town offices. He was the first
-naval officer of the port of Boston and a merchant of prominence.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The papers now preserved in the Massachusetts State Archives
-show that he was a man of good education. His wife was Elizabeth,
-and their children were Nathaniel J., Robert, who is supposed to
-have died unmarried, and Samuel, who married Ann Miller. Nathaniel
-the second married Abigail Vaughan, whose father was one
-of the royal councillors and also chief justice of New Hampshire.
-Nathaniel and Abigail had two sons, Nathaniel and Cutts. The four
-children of Nathaniel were his namesake, and George, Margaret
-and Abigail. Nathaniel and his wife, Abigail Vaughan, lived in
-Portsmouth, N. H., where he was a ship merchant. He also lived
-in Ipswich. Among other records of this generation, still extant,
-is that of a deed conveying land to Jonathan Belcher, 1720. Nathaniel
-was a slave owner, and, by will, left negroes to his sons.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>We find that Dover, N. H., was another stronghold of the Shannons,
-and Thomas, who married Lilias Watson, held many town
-offices. In 1785 he was captain of the New Hampshire militia.
-“He was a zealous supporter of the Revolution and active in recruiting
-its armies.” He died in 1800, aged about fifty years.
-Heitman’s <cite>Officers of the American Revolution</cite> names William
-Shannon of Virginia, ensign and lieutenant. O’Seanchain is said
-to have been the first form of the surname, Shannon. From O’Seanchain
-to Shanahan, Shanason, is considered an easy feat to accomplish
-by those who are skilled in such matters. Then from Shanahan
-to Shanon or Shannon is as easy as rolling off the proverbial
-log. Seanchain or Seanchan is composed of two Celtic words,
-“seancha,” meaning an antiquarian or genealogist, and “an,” one
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_100'>100</span>who. Seanchan is, then, one who is an antiquarian. Old records
-frequently give the name as Shanon, or with one “n.” The O’Sheanchains
-have a long pedigree, belonging, as they do, to that branch
-of the Celtic race which alone of all European races of the period
-antedating the Christian era has maintained its identity to the present
-time.</p>

- <dd>Mayor McClellan of New York City writes as follows: May 6, 1907. To the Honorable, the
- Board of Aldermen of the City of New York: Gentlemen:—It is my duty to inform your
- honorable body, for such action as you may deem fitting, of the death of Patrick Keenan,
- chamberlain of the city of New York. For seven consecutive terms a member of your
- honorable body, once your presiding officer, once clerk of the county of New York, and
- thrice chamberlain of the city, Mr. Keenan enjoyed public confidence to an extent
- attained by few men. He died in the fulness of man’s allotted years, with no tarnish on
- the honor he prized so much, and with only words of grief and praise from the friends who
- venerated him and the citizens he faithfully served. It is my privilege thus to express
- my sorrow at the loss of a friend whose conduct rewarded the trust I twice had the honor
- to repose in him.

- <dd>A telegram published today states that a turret accident on board the battleship
- <i>Connecticut</i>, similar to those on the <i>Georgia</i> and several other of the U. S.
- big fighting ships, was averted by the presence of mind and heroism of Lieut. William
- Pigott Cronan, has just come to light through the summoning of a board of inquiry at the
- New York navy yard. According to the story, Lieutenant Cronan was in command of one of
- the eight-inch guns on the <i>Connecticut</i> during recent target practice off New
- England. As the powder charge was thrust into the gun, the lieutenant noticed that from a
- small hole in the bag a quantity of powder had escaped and fallen into the threads into
- which the breech-block of the gun screws. Realizing that the action of screwing the
- breach-block back home would ignite the powder before the block could be firmly screwed
- home, causing the entire charge to explode back into the turret, Lieutenant Cronan
- shouted an order which stopped every man in the turret, as he stood, except the man who
- was closing the breech of the gun. He did not hear the shout and continued to swing the
- block home. Lieutenant Cronan sprang forward and thrust his hand into the breech of the
- gun. The breech closed on his hand, badly mangling it and cleanly cutting off the first
- finger, which fell into the grooves and caused the closing mechanism to clog. The
- sailor <span class='pageno' id='Page_112'>112</span>at the breech of the gun fainted when he discovered what he had done and
- what he had narrowly escaped doing. If the breech had been closed it is likely that every
- man in the turret would have been killed. The board of inquiry was called to determine
- how the hole came into the powder bag. Cronan is a son of Patrick J. Cronan of New Haven.
- During the war with Spain, Lieutenant Cronan was highly commended for several acts of
- bravery. The following is another account: While the battleship <i>Connecticut</i> was
- engaged in target practice off Cape Cod last week, Lieutenant William P. Cronan
- undoubtedly prevented a repetition of the fatal explosion on the <i>Georgia</i> by
- staying the closing of the breech of the eight-inch barker in the after turret by
- inserting his fingers in the breech grooves just as the heavy butt of metal was swinging
- into place. When they swung back the breech-block the fragments of his first and second
- fingers, severed at the first joint, were found ground into the grooves. The
- <i>Connecticut</i> had joined the rest of the squadron in target practice off Cape Cod
- last week and all of the eight-inch guns were being worked. The firing was fast, it being
- a part of the test that the guns should be fired as rapidly and as accurately as
- possible, and in order to outdo the sailors on the other ships that were engaged in the
- practice, the <i>Connecticut’s</i> men were working hard to load, train and fire the four
- big tubes in the starboard and port turrets. The eight men working under command of
- Lieutenant Cronan in the aft starboard turret were swinging to their task like pieces of
- mechanism in a single machine. Two men worked the powder hoist from the magazines below,
- two swabbed out the gun after each shot, two lifted the bags of powder into the breech
- after the heavy shell had been placed, and one man swung back and locked the breech for
- the firing. It was bang! and in an instant the breech was open and the men were sucking
- in the powder fumes while they swabbed and hoisted and charged the big gun for another
- shot. The <span class='pageno' id='Page_113'>113</span>gun got so hot that it was difficult to place a hand on the breech
- without blistering it. The men with the water swabs kept the temperature down to the
- safety point inside the chamber, but even at that it was almost hot enough to flash
- powder and a little friction would have been enough to set off any spare grains.

- <dd>A dispatch from Durham, N. H., which was published in the Boston <cite>Herald</cite>
- today, reads as follows: (Special Dispatch to the <cite>Sunday Herald</cite>.) Durham, N.
- H., Nov. 9.—For some years there has been a movement to restore the burial place of
- Maj.-Gen. John Sullivan, who died in Durham January 23, 1795. This labor of love, shared
- by many prominent people both in and out of Durham, is now completed. A substantial wall
- has been erected around the little cemetery, the lot has been cleared and graded, the
- gravestones reset and iron gates provided at the entrance. As marking the end of this
- labor, a Sullivan commemoration service has been planned for next Monday afternoon, and
- an invitation to attend the ceremonies is extended to all who cherish the dead general’s
- memory. Descendants of General Sullivan, members of the Grand Army posts and various
- historical societies and many others have already signified their intention of being
- present. The program will include an oration by the Rev. William Elliot Griffis, D. D.,
- of Ithaca, N. Y., a celebrated authority on matters pertaining to General Sullivan. The
- faculty of the New Hampshire State College have volunteered to suspend college exercises
- during the ceremonies, and the student battalion and college brass band <span class='pageno' id='Page_114'>114</span>will
- perform escort duty. The procession will start from the Congregational Church at 2.30
- o’clock, proceeding to the cemetery, where the exercises will be held. The oration will
- be delivered at the church immediately afterward. The house General Sullivan occupied
- will be open for inspection by visitors during the day, also every department of the
- state college and its work, in which institution patriotism for present day needs is
- being nurtured.

-
-<h3 class='c006'>Rt. Rev. WILLIAM STANG. D.D.</h3>
-
-<p class='c015'>Bishop of the Roman Catholic diocese of Fall River, Mass., died
-February 2, at St. Mary’s Hospital, Rochester, Minn. He was born
-at Langenbruchen, Baden-Baden, Germany, on April 21, 1854. His
-early education was received in the German Gymnasia, but as he
-had chosen the career of a missionary, he made his theological studies
-in the American College at Louvain, Belgium, and was there ordained
-to the priesthood, on June 15, 1878. After a brief service
-as professor in his Alma Mater, he came to the United States in
-1879, and was accepted by the late Bishop Hendricken into the diocese
-of Providence, R. I. He adopted his new country in wholehearted
-fashion. In 1884, Father Stang was appointed rector of
-St. Anne’s Church, Cranston, R. I. He became rector of the
-Providence Cathedral, and held that important charge until 1895,
-when he returned to Louvain, to serve his church and country as
-vice-rector of the American College for a term of three years. Back
-to Providence in 1898, he organized and headed the Providence
-apostolate—a band of missionary priests organized especially for
-missions to non-Catholics. He was also rector of St. Edward’s
-Church for three years, and then chancellor, until the division of
-the diocese of Providence in 1904, and his appointment to the new
-diocese of Fall River. Bishop Stang was consecrated in the Providence
-Cathedral during the same year, on May 1. He managed to
-combine the arduous ordinary work of the priesthood with the special
-work of the continuous student and author. Almost from the first
-year of his priesthood he was writing for the Catholic magazines
-and bringing out books. His published works, the last of which
-was brought out since his consecration, are: “The Life of Martin
-Luther,” “The Eve of the Reformation,” “More About the Huguenots,”
-“Germany’s Debt to Ireland,” “Pastoral Theology,” “Historiographia
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_116'>116</span>Ecclesiastica,” “The Business Guide for Priests,” “Theologia
-Fundamentalis Moralis,” “The Devil, Who He Is,” “Spiritual
-Pepper and Salt,” and “Socialism and Christianity.” His last magazine
-article, “Father Denifle and His Great and Lasting Work,”
-appeared in the <cite>American Ecclesiastical Review</cite> for January, 1907.</p>
-
-<h3 class='c006'>JOHN B. SULLIVAN</h3>
-
-<p class='c015'>of New Bedford, Mass. He died there February 9. Mr. Sullivan
-was born in Castletown, County Cork, June 24, 1847, the son of
-Timothy and Honora (Harrington) Sullivan. He received a common
-school education in his native town and in 1867 came to this
-country and settled in New Bedford. He learned the stone mason’s
-trade, at which he worked until 1882, when he began contracting
-and building. The latter business he pursued with conspicuous success
-up to the time of his death, being associated for a number of
-years past with his son, Mark E. Sullivan. A number of noteworthy
-New Bedford buildings have been erected by Mr. Sullivan.
-Among them are St. Mary’s Home, St. Lawrence’s presbytery, the
-Holy Family School, the tower of St. Lawrence’s Church, St. James’
-Church, St. Mary’s Chapel, the Park Hotel, No. 8 Engine House,
-the Connell block on Purchase St., the Dawson building and the
-addition to St. Joseph’s Hospital. He built several schoolhouses
-for the city, and on the second set of plans for the high school was
-the lowest bidder. His firm secured the contract for finishing St.
-Anthony’s Church. Besides a large number of public buildings,
-Mr. Sullivan was an extensive builder of houses in the north part of
-the city. He carried on a stone quarry in addition to his building
-business. Mr. Sullivan was a trustee of St. Lawrence parish, a
-member of and one of the organizers of the Master Builders’ Association,
-and a member of the New Bedford Board of Trade, the
-Plymouth Club and Holy Name Society of St. Lawrence Church.
-In August, 1872, he married Miss Margaret Sullivan, who died,
-leaving one son, Mark E. By his second wife, who was Katherine
-E. Sullivan, he had two children, Mary and Frank.</p>
-
-<h3 class='c006'>OSBORNE HOWES.</h3>
-
-<p class='c015'>He was a descendant of David O’Killia, who settled on Cape
-Cod, Mass., as early as 1657. Osborne Howes was born in Boston
-in 1846 and was educated in private and public schools of the city.
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_117'>117</span>Soon after his graduation he entered the service of the Pacific Mail
-Steamship Company on the steamers of that line running between
-Panama, San Francisco and Hongkong. After three years thus
-spent on the Pacific coast, he went to New York City and there began
-a connection with newspaper work which continued almost up to the
-time of his death. Beginning in the office of the <cite>New York Tribune</cite>,
-he was afterward employed by the <cite>New York Times</cite>, serving on that
-paper during its exposé of the “Tweed ring.” In 1873 he accepted
-the position of secretary of the Boston board of fire underwriters, and
-was always thereafter identified with that body. Having resumed
-his residence in Boston, he was appointed from time to time to various
-public offices. As representative of the board of underwriters he
-was instrumental in having that board take action upon several important
-public questions. The resolution committing the associated
-board of trade to the principle that all future subways in Boston
-should be built under such conditions that they would ultimately
-revert to the city, was drawn up, presented and urged by him, and
-as a result of its adoption the Boston Associated Board of Trade
-was the foremost opponent on this question of excessive corporate
-demands. As a member of the Boston Chamber of Commerce, Mr.
-Howes was chairman of its committee on the Isthmian canal, and
-vice-chairman of its committee on reciprocal trade relations with
-Canada. In this latter connection he addressed the boards of trade
-and chambers of commerce, not only of a number of the cities of
-New England, but those of New York, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Indianapolis
-and other cities of the West. In 1891, feeling convinced
-that it was desirable that public action should be taken toward educating
-young men to become competent seamen, he prepared, introduced
-and succeeded in having the legislature adopt a bill creating
-the Nautical Training School, which the commonwealth now maintains
-on board the U. S. S. <i>Enterprise</i>. From 1875 to 1877, inclusive,
-Mr. Howes was a member of the common council of Boston,
-representing the South End ward, in which he then resided. In
-1886 he moved his residence to the town of Brookline, and besides
-serving on various town committees, became a member of the rapid
-transit commission, to which he was appointed by Governor Russell;
-also a member of the metropolitan district (Greater Boston) commission,
-to which he was appointed by Governor Greenhalge. In
-1884 Mr. Howes was a member of the special committee of fifteen
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_118'>118</span>which prepared the new Boston city charter; he also served as one
-of the trustees of the public library. Mr. Howes in 1901, and again
-in 1902, was nominated as the Democratic candidate for the state
-senate in the second Norfolk district, but was defeated on both occasions.
-On the first occasion, in his letter of acceptance, he described
-the state platform of the Democratic party as “an attempt
-to bring back the government machinery of the commonwealth to
-something approaching the simplicity of its earlier days.” On the
-second he championed “more liberal and advantageous trade relations
-between New England and Canada.” In 1904 Mayor Collins
-appointed him to an unsalaried position as member of the board of
-building inspection. The following year Mr. Howes took a leading
-part as chairman of the committee on resolutions in preparing the
-platform of the Democratic party in the state contest. Mr. Howes
-was Japanese consul in Boston at the time of his death, which sad
-event took place April 9.</p>
-
-<h3 class='c006'>PETER McDONNELL.</h3>
-
-<p class='c015'>Born in Ireland, died aboard the White Star steamer <i>Oceanic</i>, in
-August, while returning from Ireland. Mr. McDonnell first came
-to this country when a young man. For a long time he had represented
-the railroads successfully at Castle Garden, the Barge Office
-and Ellis Island. He was also interested in the steamship business
-at the immigration station and carried on a big banking business at
-No. 2 Battery Place. When he went to his old home in Ireland in
-the spring he was in poor health. He was accompanied by his wife
-and one of his six sons. Mr. McDonnell was the secretary and a
-director of the Columbia Oil Company of New York, one of the
-few rivals of the Standard Oil Company, and a director of the New
-York Mortgage and Securities Company. He was a member of the
-Catholic Club and for many years of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick.

-in 1905, it will be remembered the birth of Mr. McDonnell’s

-<h3 class='c006'>JOHN B. SHEA.</h3>
-
-<p class='c015'>Born in Kenmare, Ireland, 1835; he came to this country when
-he was seven years of age. He died late in 1907. Mr. Shea was
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_119'>119</span>very successful in business. He went to work for Andrew Berrian,
-a pen manufacturer, in 1849, and after being employed by Bard
-Bros. of Philadelphia, Alexander Morton and Leroy W. Fairchild,
-he entered the factory of Aikin, Lambert &amp; Co., the Maiden Lane,
-New York, jewelers, as foreman. In 1869 he was admitted to partnership,
-and when the concern was incorporated, he became its vice-president,
-which position he held up to the time of his death. Mr.
-Shea never married and is survived by a sister, Mary, and a brother,
-Michael. He was a brother of the late Denis Shea, clothier of
-Broome and Crosby streets, who was the Republican district leader
-of the Second district from early in the 90s, until his death, about
-three years ago. John B. Shea was his trustee.</p>

-<h3 class='c006'>Rt. Rev. Mgr. THOMAS H. WALLACE.</h3>
-
-<p class='c015'>He was born in Somersworth, N. H. He died in Lewiston, Me.,
-November 1. After finishing his course in the Somersworth High
-School, he graduated in 1864, entered Holy Cross College, Worcester,
-Mass., and carried off the highest honors of his class at his
-graduation in June, 1868. In the following September he entered
-the Theological Seminary of St. Sulpice, Montreal. He was ordained
-priest by the first bishop of Portland, the Rt. Rev. David
-William Bacon, D. D., in the Cathedral, Portland, Me., August 5,
-1871. After his ordination he was first sent as assistant to the pastor
-at Waterville, whose parish included twelve or fifteen missions.
-Here the young priest began his mission work and displayed
-that tireless energy and zeal that gave promise of his future success.
-In 1872 he was transferred to St. Dominic’s Church in Portland
-to assist the Rev. Eugene M. O’Callaghan, who is now the Rt. Rev.
-Monseigneur, and vicar general of the diocese of Manchester, N. H.
-The careers of both priests have been very similar, each of them
-receiving the purple in 1905. Father Wallace succeeded Father
-O’Callaghan as rector of St. Dominic’s and to this day both are
-most lovingly remembered by the old members of the parish. In
-August, 1876, Father Wallace was appointed rector of St. Joseph’s,
-Lewiston, which has been the scene of his labors for the past thirty-one
-years. He found St. Joseph’s with a debt which he set to work
-at once to pay off. In March, 1880, he purchased the Bonallie
-Block on Main Street. He remodelled this block and fitted it for a
-school for the girls of the parish at an expense of $30,000. He
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_120'>120</span>placed the school under the charge of the nuns of Notre Dame from
-Montreal. In 1886 he purchased the fine property at the corner of
-Bates and Walnut streets, at a cost of $25,000. This lot fronts on
-the City Park and is the most beautiful site for a church in the
-state. He began work at once on the foundation of the church and
-on June 24, 1887, the corner stone was laid by the lamented Bishop
-Healy, with appropriate ceremonies. The dedication sermon was
-preached by the Rt. Rev. Thomas J. Conaty, D. D., who is now
-bishop of Monterey and Los Angeles, Cal. The first mass in the
-sacred edifice was celebrated in 1890.</p>

-<p>HON. FELIX CARBRAY, M. R. I. A.,<br /><br />A MEMBER OF THE SOCIETY, RECENTLY DECEASED.</p>
-</div>

-<div>
- <span class='pageno' id='Page_121'>121</span>
- <h3 class='c006'>Hon. FELIX CARBRAY, M. R. I. A.</h3>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c015'>A native of Quebec, born in 1835. He died in Quebec in December,
-1907. His parents were from the County Tyrone, Ireland,
-and came to Canada in the early 30s. The father, Niall Carbray,
-was born at Carrickcastle, near Dungannon. The old Carbray homestead
-still exists there and is occupied by a member of the family.
-His mother was Catherine Connolly, a native of Clogher, County
-Tyrone. Felix, the son, subject of this sketch, was educated at private
-schools and at the Christian Brothers, in his native city. Endowed
-with natural talents of no ordinary character and with a
-thirst for knowledge, he applied himself earnestly in the effort to
-improve his education in every possible way. He distinguished
-himself in mathematics and literature. He was endowed with a
-great aptitude for the acquisition of foreign languages, and was
-familiar with the Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and French. He
-was as thoroughly familiar with French as with English. Thus
-well equipped with a superior education and a worthy ambition to
-make his mark in life, he began a business course in April, 1854,
-as an accountant, which he continued in some of the leading houses
-in his native city for fifteen years. In May, 1869, he opened an
-office as a general commission and shipping merchant, which from
-the beginning was most successful. In the spring of 1870, he took
-as partner, Francis Routh, son of the late Sir Randolph Routh.
-His mother was a Taschereau, sister of the late Cardinal Taschereau
-and of the late Chief Justice Taschereau. The new firm, Carbray
-&amp; Routh, which a few years later became Carbray, Routh
-&amp; Co., opened an office also in Montreal, Mr. Carbray managing
-the business of the Quebec office and Mr. Routh that of the Montreal office. The new firm had a long, prosperous and honorable
-career. No firm was more widely known all over the business world,
-nor did any stand higher for integrity and honor. The partnership,
-having expired in 1900, was dissolved and the affairs liquidated;
-this being found to the mutual advantage of the associates.
-Mr. Carbray continued the business at Quebec with his son, William,
-under the name of Carbray, Son &amp; Co., and Mr. Routh that of
-Montreal under the style of F. A. Routh &amp; Co. Both firms have
-been very successful and bid fair to go on down the generations like
-many of the old houses of Europe. The high character and abilities
-of Felix Carbray at an earlier date attracted the attention of his
-fellow citizens, and every mark of esteem and confidence was shown
-him. He loved Ireland, the land of his fathers, with an intense
-love, and threw himself heart and soul into every movement tending
-to promote her cause or the welfare of his race. No Irishman of
-his time in Quebec did more to raise the prestige of the Irish race
-and the cause of Ireland among the peoples of other races.
-In 1883, <cite>Redpath’s Weekly</cite> says of Mr. Carbray: “He is a
-gentleman of high culture and deep learning. His linguistic attainments
-are also remarkable. He speaks the French and English
-languages with equal fluency, and as both are used in the Quebec
-legislature, Mr. Carbray addresses the house in one or the other
-with equal elegancy, as circumstances may require. He also converses
-freely in Italian, Spanish and Portuguese. The high esteem
-in which he is held by his Irish fellow citizens is best shown by the
-fact that they have never missed an occasion to put him in every
-place of honor and trust within their gift. He is at present their
-worthy representative in the parliament of the Province of Quebec,
-as a member of the West Division of the city, which, though it contains
-the leading British commercial men of Quebec, is controlled
-by the Irish vote. Mr. Carbray is an eloquent and forcible orator,
-his recent speech on the occasion of the reading of ‘the speech from
-the throne,’ having been pronounced by the Canadian press as the
-most remarkable English speech ever delivered in the Quebec legislature.
-In his public capacity Mr. Carbray has never made an
-enemy, while as a private citizen he has hosts of friends.” Rose, in
-his <cite>Cyclopedia of Canadian Biography</cite>, says of him: He was educated
-at Quebec, where he has resided throughout his life, though
-he has traveled extensively in America and Europe, principally on
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_122'>122</span>business connected with the trade in lumber, in which his house is
-engaged. He was one of the pioneers of the lumber trade between
-the St. Lawrence and South America, and is still largely interested
-in it. In addition to his other duties, he fills the important position
-of consul of Portugal at the port of Quebec. A Catholic in religion,
-Mr. Carbray has been honored by the St. Patrick’s congregation of
-Quebec with election and re-election as one of the trustees, and is also
-a trustee of that noble Irish Catholic charity, the St. Bridget’s Asylum
-of Quebec. He has taken an equally active and leading part in all the
-local national movements of his fellow countrymen, and has been
-president of the St. Patrick’s Literary Institute, the Irish National
-Association, and other Irish bodies in Quebec. He is a Liberal-Conservative
-in politics, and at the provincial general elections in 1881,
-yielding to the solicitations of his friends, he ran as the party candidate
-for the electoral division of Quebec West, and, after a hard
-fight, was elected by a good majority to represent that constituency
-in the legislative assembly in the province. His parliamentary
-career was very creditable. Though he did not often address the
-house, he was always listened to with the utmost respect, being an
-equally good speaker and debater in both English and French, and
-never wasting his powder except on serious and interesting subjects
-with which he was most conversant, such, especially, as questions of
-finance and commerce. In May, 1854, he married Miss Margaret
-Carberry, a daughter of the late William Carberry of Carrick-on-Suir,
-Ireland, of whom he had four sons and six daughters. Those
-still living are: Herbert of Montreal; William, Quebec; Thomas
-John, a promising lawyer; Mrs. P. L. Connor, Boston; Mrs. Alfred
-Carroll, Montreal, and Grace. His youngest daughter, Grace, and
-son, Thomas, live with him at “Benburb Place,” and the Ramparts.
-Mrs. Carbray died in May, 1895. She was a patriotic Irish woman
-and revered and esteemed for her piety and devotedness to God’s
-poor. In October, 1902, he married Miss Brigid Carberry—widow
-of the late Nicholas K. Connolly—sister of his first wife.
-The marriage ceremony was performed at St. Gabriel’s Church, New
-York, by Archbishop Farley. She died on July 1, 1903, deeply
-regretted by her sorrowing husband and all who knew her. A most
-amiable lady and, like her sister, devoted to the poor. Mr. Carbray
-filled many distinguished positions in his life; he is held in high
-esteem by his fellow citizens of all races, creeds and politics. He
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_123'>123</span>was a member of the Quebec Harbor Commission, of the Quebec
-Board of Trade, consul for Portugal, and, being the oldest consul
-here, is dean of the Consular Corps, senior trustee of St. Patrick’s
-Church, of the St. Bridget’s Asylum Association, president of the
-United Irish League, etc., etc. Mr. Carbray was an ardent upholder
-of the movement for the revival of the Irish language. He delivered
-a lecture on this subject at Tara Hall, Quebec, in April, 1899, which
-displayed profound knowledge of the subject, and attracted the
-attention and encomiums of the whole Celtic world. Mr. Carbray
-had a collection of books on Ireland which formed probably the
-best of its kind in Canada. He was a member of the Royal Irish
-Academy.</p>

-age, and spent much of his youth at East Dennis, Cape Cod, Mass. His
-early love for the sea was gratified later in life when he became captain
-of some of the finest deep-water ships sailing from Baltimore, Boston and
-elsewhere. His first command was the bark <i>May Queen</i>, a regular Baltimore
-and Rio packet, 1872. He then had command of the ship <i>Pilgrim</i>
-of Boston, and made several voyages to the East Indies. In 1884 he was
-given command of the <i>Charger</i>, a larger and finer ship than the <i>Pilgrim</i>,
-and sailed to ports in Japan. He next had command of the <i>South American</i>,
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_128'>128</span>“the Commodore’s ship,” of the Hastings fleet (Boston), and took
-her to Australia and other parts. He made several record voyages during
-his career, and some of these records still stand, having never been
-equalled. On one occasion he was wrecked off the coast of Africa; he
-and his wife upon being rescued were hospitably entertained by the Boers
-of the adjacent country. Returning to East Dennis, Mass., his wife’s
-health became poor and so he removed with her to Coronado, Cal., hoping
-that the change of climate would benefit her, but she died in 1901. She
-had accompanied her husband on several of his voyages, and had with
-him visited many parts of the world. Captain Connolly has written much
-and entertainingly. He has at present in manuscript form a novel of
-ocean life entitled <cite>The Magic of the Sea</cite>.</p>

-
-<p class='c022'><strong>Doyle, John F.</strong>, of John F. Doyle &amp; Sons, 45 William Street, New York
-City. (Life member of the Society.) Mr. Doyle is the senior member
-of the real estate firm of John F. Doyle &amp; Sons. He was born in New
-York City, 1837, a son of James Doyle, who participated in the Irish revolution
-of 1798, and who came to the United States early in 1806. This
-James Doyle, the immigrant, had a son who was killed in the Florida
-war of 1837, and a grandson who fell in 1861, fighting for the Union.
-John F. Doyle, the subject of this sketch and member of the Society,
-entered the law office of Alexander Hamilton, grandson of the first secretary
-of the treasury, afterwards the firm of Hamilton, Rives &amp; Rogers,
-and remained with them from 1853 to 1869, in the meantime studying
-law and being admitted to the bar in 1862. Alexander Hamilton, Francis
-R. Rives, a son of William C. Rives, of Virginia, at one time minister to
-France and senator, and Nathan Pendleton Rogers, all of the old Revolutionary
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_132'>132</span>stock, were members of the firm. Mr. Doyle’s management of
-some Wall Street properties for them at this period became so conspicuous
-that he was urged by them to assume the management of their estates,
-which he did. Shortly afterwards followed the acquisition of the estates of
-such well-known people as Mrs. Harriet L. Langdon, granddaughter-in-law
-of the first John Jacob Astor, John Pyne March, Mrs. Morgan L. Livingston,
-George L. Schuyler, James M. Pendleton, A. Newbold Morris,
-James H. Jones, John Steward, Jr., Royal Phelps, deceased, Royal Phelps
-Carroll, Robert S. Minturn, estate of Gertrude L. Lowndes, deceased,
-William H. King, of Newport, R. I., and others too numerous to mention
-in detail. A feature of his career as a successful manager lies in the fact
-that the business associations and connections formed by him in the
-beginning are still held intact. Among the notable sales made by him are
-those from William H. Morris to John Jacob Astor in 1880, conveying 150
-acres of lots in the twenty-third ward on and adjacent to Harlem River;
-the great sale of South Brooklyn lots at Gowanus Bay in 1884. Mr. Doyle
-represents today the same old and well-known families and estates represented
-by him so many years ago. During his career Mr. Doyle has
-met and done business with some of the most notable men connected with
-families notable in American history, such as three of the four sons
-of the first Alexander Hamilton, Admiral Farragut, Capt. Percival Drayton,
-Rawlins Lowndes, of South Carolina, William C. Rives, U. S. senator
-from Virginia, at one time minister to France, George L. Schuyler,
-grandson of Philip Schuyler and owner of the famous yacht America,
-Philip Schuyler, his son, Henry Grinnell of Arctic fame, Robert J. and
-Mortimer Livingston, Hon. John Lee Carroll, Commodore Wm. K. Vanderbilt,
-and scores of others equally well known, besides representing
-branches now of four lineal descendants of signers of the Declaration of
-Independence. His two sons, Col. John F. Doyle, Jr., and Alfred L.
-Doyle, have been with him in business for years past and all three enjoy
-an enviable reputation for integrity, ability and prudence in all their
-undertakings.</p>

-<p class='c022'><strong>Hanrahan, John D.</strong> (M. D.), Rutland, Vt., a native of County Limerick,
-Ireland; was graduated in medicine from the University of the City of
-New York, 1867; in June, 1861, he was, on examination (not having
-graduated), appointed surgeon in the United States Navy, and served
-through the entire Civil War. The vessels on which he served did duty
-mostly on the rivers of Virginia and North Carolina, where he served
-with the army as well as the navy, thereby having the benefit and experience
-of both branches of the service, especially in the surgical line. In
-August, 1863, the vessel on which he was serving was captured at the
-mouth of the Rappahannock River and all on board made prisoners.
-They were taken overland to Richmond where they were confined in Libby
-Prison. At that time the Confederates were very short of surgeons and
-medical supplies, and he was asked if he would go over to Belle Island
-and attend the Union prisoners. After consulting his fellow-prisoners he
-consented, and for six weeks he attended the sick and wounded Union
-prisoners faithfully, under very great disadvantages, as the appliances
-were very limited. After that he was paroled. While a prisoner of war
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_137'>137</span>he was treated with the greatest courtesy and consideration by the medical
-staff and officers of the Confederacy. After the close of the war he was
-settled in New York City, but for nearly forty years has been a resident
-of Rutland, Vt. He was town and city physician of Rutland for many
-years. He was appointed surgeon of the Third Vermont Regiment, 1871,
-by Governor Stewart; was the first president of the Rutland County
-Medical and Surgical Society; has been a director and consulting surgeon
-of the Rutland (Vt.) Hospital; consulting surgeon to the Fanny Allen
-Hospital, Winooski, Vt.; a member of the Vermont Sanitary Association,
-and a member of the Vermont Society for the Prevention of Tuberculosis;
-president of Rutland Village two years and trustee eight years; county
-commissioner one year; president, United States pension examining board
-four years under President Cleveland, and president of the same board
-four years under President Harrison. He was postmaster of Rutland
-during the second term of President Cleveland. He has since its organization
-been an active member of the G. A. R.; surgeon of Roberts Post,
-the largest in Vermont; has served three terms as medical director of the
-Department; served on the staffs of three commanders-in-chief—Veasy,
-Palmer and Weissert; a member of Commander-in-Chief Stewart’s staff.
-Doctor Hanrahan is the author of several medical papers, has performed
-many surgical operations, and has served through several epidemics of
-smallpox and diphtheria. He was a delegate to the Democratic National
-conventions of 1884, 1888, and chairman of the Vermont delegation to
-the National Convention of 1892. Also a delegate to the Democratic
-National Convention in St. Louis, 1904, and to the Ancient Order of
-Hibernians convention in St. Louis, July 19, 1904.</p>

-<p class='c022'><strong>Kelly, Eugene</strong>, Templecourt Building, New York City.</p>
-
-<p class='c022'><strong>Kelly, John Forrest</strong> (Ph. D.), Pittsfield, Mass.; born near Carrick-on-Suir,
-Ireland. He was educated in Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken,
-N. J., received the degree of B. L. in 1878 and that of Ph. D. in 1881.
-His first occupation was as assistant to Thomas A. Edison, in Menlo
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_139'>139</span>Park laboratory, his work then principally relating to the chemistry of
-rare earths. Late in 1879 Mr. Kelly became electrical engineer of the
-New York branch of the Western Electric Company. This was the time
-when the telephone was being generally introduced, and when dynamos
-were being first applied to telegraphic purposes. In the construction and
-installment of instruments for telegraphy and telephones and of such
-measuring instruments as were then known, Mr. Kelly received a thorough
-training. In 1882 he became laboratory assistant to Edward Weston, then
-chief electrician of the United States Electric Lighting Company, and,
-with the exception of a year which he spent in connection with the Remingtons,
-Mr. Kelly continued his association with Mr. Weston until July,
-1886. Some of the most important work, such as the research which ended
-in the discovery of high resistance alloys of very low or even negative
-temperature co-efficients, were substantially carried out by Mr. Kelly under
-general directions from Mr. Weston, whom Mr. Kelly succeeded as chief
-electrician of the United States Electric Lighting Company, which, in
-1889, passed to the Westinghouse interests; but Mr. Kelly retained his
-position as chief electrician until January, 1892, when he resigned to join
-William Stanley in experimental work. The work done by Mr. Kelly, in
-this connection, gave a great impetus to the alternating current business.
-Mr. Kelly’s inventive work is partially represented by eighty patents. The
-art of building transformers and generators of alternating currents was
-revolutionized, and Mr. Kelly and his colleagues were the first to put
-polyphase motors into actual commercial service. That success naturally
-led to long-distance transmission work, and the first long-distance transmission
-plants in California (indeed the first in the world), were undertaken
-on Mr. Kelly’s recommendation and advice. He was the first to
-make a hysteretically stable steel, a matter of vastly more importance than
-the comparatively spectacular transmission work. Mr. Kelly at present
-occupies the position of president of the John F. Kelly Engineering Company,
-president of the Cokel Company and president of the Telelectric
-Company, as well as president of the Conchas River Power Company and
-director of the Southwestern Exploration Company. The Cokel Company
-is organized to exploit the invention of Mr. E. W. Cooke, by means of
-which foodstuffs may be perfectly dehydrated, losing on the average ninety
-per cent in weight. Foods dehydrated by this process, although free from
-all chemical preservatives, are entirely stable, and yet preserve their pristine
-freshness through extremes of temperature, and when served are
-indistinguishable from fresh foods of the ordinary type. The Telelectric
-Company is organized for the manufacture of electric piano players, which
-are either entirely automatic or entirely controllable at will. Mr. Kelly
-was married to Miss Helen Fischer, in New York City, in 1892, and they
-have two children—Eoghan and Domnall. Mr. Kelly is a thorough and
-unswerving Irish Nationalist, and his splendid generosity to the cause is
-well known.</p>

-<p class='c022'><strong>McClure, David</strong>, lawyer, 22 William Street, New York City. Mr. McClure
-was admitted to the bar in December, 1869, in New York City, where he
-has since resided. His practice has brought him very prominently before
-the courts and public during the last thirty-six years as counsel in cases
-which have attracted much attention. He has been counsel in many contested
-will cases, including those of Merril, Schuyler Skatts, Charles B.
-Beck and Mary Johnson. In the Livingston, De Meli and General Burnside
-litigation he was also prominent. He has been connected with many
-large corporation foreclosure suits, including those of the Denver Water
-Company, the New York &amp; Northern Railroad Company, Omaha Water
-Company, the Toledo, Ann Arbor &amp; Northern Michigan, the Northern
-Pacific, the New York, Lake Erie &amp; Western, the Oregon Railway &amp;
-Navigation Company, the Oregon Improvement Company, the Chicago &amp;
-Northern Pacific Company, the Bankers and Merchants’ Telegraph Company,
-and the Memphis &amp; Charleston Railroad Company. He is regarded
-as one of the most successful trial lawyers at the bar in New York. Mr.
-McClure for more than a quarter of a century has been counsel for the
-Farmers Loan &amp; Trust Company, the oldest and largest trust company
-in the United States, organized in 1821; and for many years of the Consolidated
-Gas Company, one of the largest public service corporations in
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_143'>143</span>the country. He is also counsel for the West Side Savings Bank, several
-fire insurance companies and other banks. He was one of the counsel for
-the Mutual Life Insurance Company during the presidency of F. S.
-Winston. For years he was a director in the Lawyers Surety Company,
-and he is on the board of the Title Insurance Company of New York.
-He was a prominent and active member of the State Constitution Convention
-of 1894, in which body he introduced and carried through the
-amendment providing for protection of the forests of New York. He years
-ago declined elevation to the bench of the Court of Appeals, the highest
-court in the state of New York, and several times to other positions;
-also appointment to the offices of corporation counsel of the city of New
-York, and district attorney of the United States. Mr. McClure was appointed,
-in 1893, receiver of the National Bank of Deposit, in the city of
-New York, and in spite of the stringent financial condition which prevailed
-during the summer of that year, dividends aggregating seventy-five
-per cent were paid within three months. The entire indebtedness, principal
-and interest, was paid and the receivership closed out within one year.
-In 1892 he was a delegate from the state of New York to the National
-Democratic Convention which, at Chicago, nominated Grover Cleveland
-as candidate for the office of president of the United States, and during
-the campaign of that year he was much discussed by the press of New
-York as the probable nominee of his party for the office of mayor of the
-city. In that year he was designated by the General Term of the Supreme
-Court, chairman of the first commission appointed to determine
-whether a subway passing under Broadway and other streets through the
-city should be constructed, his associates being Robert Maclay, president of
-the Knickerbocker Trust Company, and Benjamin Perkins. Prior to the
-adoption by the United States government of the Panama Canal project,
-and during the presidency of Mr. McKinley, one of the largest, if not
-the largest, syndicates of moneyed men ever gathered together obtained a
-concession from the government of Nicaragua for the construction of a
-canal known as the Nicaragua Canal. This syndicate, which proposed to
-build the canal without government aid, was composed of the Messrs.
-Vanderbilt, Astor, Rockefeller, Mills, Stillman, Grace, Crimmins, and
-others of equal standing, and was represented before the committee of
-Congress upon the question of recognition and protection, by Mr. McClure
-as its counsel, he having organized the corporation under which it
-was proposed to operate. Mr. McClure is a member of the Manhattan,
-New York Athletic and other clubs, and the Bar Association; of which
-he has been a member of the judiciary and other committees. He has
-also been honored with the presidency of the Metropolitan Surety
-Company.</p>

-Expedition, which was one of the causes of the evacuation of Charleston
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_145'>145</span>by the Confederates. Soon after the evacuation, the <i>State of Georgia</i> was

-Cruz to the Liberals, the <i>Tacony</i> returned to Pensacola, Fla., but yellow
-fever breaking out aboard, the ship went to Portsmouth, N. H., where,
-after undergoing quarantine, the officers were detached and ordered to

-ordered to duty with the Asiatic fleet. On reporting to the admiral, he
-was ordered to duty as executive officer of the U. S. S. <i>Unadilla</i>; succeeded
-to the command of the <i>Unadilla</i> in June, 1869, and in November of
-that year was detached from the <i>Unadilla</i> and ordered to the U. S. S.
-<i>Iroquois</i>; returned in her to the United States, the ship going out of commission
-in April, 1870. In April, 1870, he was promoted to be lieutenant-commander
-and while in that grade served on the double-turreted monitor
-<i>Terror</i>, the <i>Wachusett</i>, <i>Juniata</i> and <i>Marion</i> as executive officer, and at
-the League Island, Philadelphia and Brooklyn navy yards. In January,
-1887, he was promoted to commander; commanded the <i>Swatara</i>, <i>St.
-Mary’s</i>, <i>Portsmouth</i> and <i>Alliance</i>, and was also commandant of the naval
-training station at Newport, R. I., from December, 1896, to July, 1899.
-He was promoted captain, February, 1899, and in August took command of
-the U. S. S. <i>Monadnock</i> at Manila. In November, 1900, he was ordered
-to duty as commandant of the naval station at Key West, Fla. In April,
-1901, he was detached and ordered before the retiring board. He was
-retired, with the rank of rear admiral, in April, 1901. In October, 1871,
-he wedded Evelyn Manderson of Philadelphia. Admiral McGowan is a

-Engineers and Naval Architects. He is also a member of the following
-clubs: the Metropolitan and Chevy Chase of Washington, D. C.; the
-Rittenhouse of Philadelphia, the Union of New York, and the New York
-Yacht Club. Admiral McGowan’s father, Capt. John McGowan, was

-vice-president for Georgia, American Bankers’ Association. Colonel Sanders
-<span class='pageno' id='Page_154'>154</span>is of Irish and English ancestry. On the maternal side he is descended
-from Thomas and Theodosia M. Smyth, who emigrated from Ireland in
-1793, landing in Charleston, S. C. They settled in Jones County, Ga.
-Thomas died November 28, 1799. On the paternal side Colonel Sanders
-is a descendant of Rev. Moses Sanders, who emigrated from England,
-with two brothers, John and David, and arrived in Petersburg, Va., 1765.
-They embraced the patriotic cause in the Revolution and were active in
-operations against the British. Colonel Sanders, the subject of this sketch,
-graduated from the Georgia Military Institute, in June, 1861; entered the
-Confederate service; was made lieutenant-colonel of the Twenty-fourth
-Regiment of Infantry, Georgia Volunteers, August, 1861; served under
-General Lee in the Peninsular campaign, in the seven days’ battles around
-Richmond, Va., and was among the bravest of the brave; commanded his
-regiment at Malvern Hill and at Marye’s Heights, Fredericksburg, where
-the Twenty-fourth was a part of the Confederate forces that received the
-valorous charges of Meagher’s Irish Brigade. He also commanded the
-regiment at the battles of Chancellorsville and Antietam, at which latter
-conflict he was placed in command of Wofford’s Brigade. While in this
-position he met a bayonet charge from the Federals by a counter bayonet
-charge, and in the desperate fighting that ensued, fifty-eight per cent of
-Sanders’ heroic force was swept away. Colonel Sanders also led the
-Twenty-fourth at Cedar Creek, Chickamauga, Knoxville, the Wilderness,
-Spottsylvania Court House, and Sailor’s Creek. On April 6, 1865, Ewell’s
-Corps, to which Colonel Sanders’ regiment was then attached, was captured,
-and Colonel Sanders was sent as a prisoner of war to Washington,
-D. C. Writing of Meagher’s Irish Brigade, Colonel Sanders says: “I
-was in command of the Twenty-fourth Georgia Regiment, with other
-troops, at the foot of Marye’s Heights, receiving the five heroic and gallant
-charges of the Irish Brigade, whose prodigies of valor have filled the
-country with admiration. I saw the devoted Irish charge up to our
-breastworks, to be mowed down by a line of Confederate fire that no
-soldiers could withstand. I saw the Irish battalions cut down like grain
-before the reaper, yet the survivors would magnificently close up their
-ranks only to have huge gaps again cut through them. When forced back
-they rallied and came bravely on again, only to be riddled with bullets and
-torn by artillery. Their fifth charge was made with greatly decimated
-ranks that slowly recoiled like the waves of a tempestuous sea. When
-twilight descended upon the scene, a spectacle was presented unequaled
-in warfare. At least three fourths of my command was composed of men
-of Irish descent and knew that the gallant dead in our front were our
-kindred of the land beyond the sea. When, one by one, the stars came
-out that night, many tears were shed by Southern Confederate eyes for the
-heroic Federal Irish dead.” During the war Colonel Sanders was offered
-the rank of brigadier-general but declined the same.</p>

- <h2 class='c004'>GENERAL INFORMATION REGARDING THE AMERICAN-IRISH HISTORICAL SOCIETY.</h2>
-</div>
-
-<p class='c005'>The Society was organized on January 20, 1897, in Boston, Mass.,
-and now has members in many states, the District of Columbia, one
-territory and two foreign countries.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>Briefly stated, the object of the organization is to make better
-known the Irish chapter in American history.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>There are two classes of members in the organization,—Life and
-Annual. The life membership fee is $50 (paid once). The fee for
-annual members is $5, paid yearly. In the case of new annual members,
-the initiation fee, $5, also pays the membership dues for the
-first year.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The board of government comprises a president-general, a vice-president-general,
-a secretary-general, a treasurer-general, a librarian
-and archivist, and an executive council. There are also state vice-presidents.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Society has already issued several bound volumes and a number
-of other publications. These have been distributed to the members
-and to public libraries; also to historical organizations and to
-universities. Each member of the Society is entitled, free of charge,
-to a copy of every publication issued from the time of his admittance.
-These publications are of great interest and value, and are more than
-an equivalent for the membership fee.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The Society draws no lines of creed or politics. Being an American
-organization in spirit and principle, it welcomes to its ranks
-Americans of whatever race descent, and of whatever creed, who
-take an interest in the objects for which the Society is organized.
-Membership application blanks will be furnished on request.</p>
-
-<p class='c011'>The membership includes many people of prominence, and has
-been addressed by many distinguished men. It occupies a position
-in the front rank of American historical organizations.</p>

-to continue reading. And you build up the glorious edifice of true American-Irish
-history by simply claiming your due and disparaging no man. This intention,
-your illustrious President-General McGowan, in his address to the
-members of the Society, has chivalrously expressed in these memorable words:
-“We rob no race to gild the Irish name when we undertake to unearth the
-records of the past.... We merely wish to claim, assert and
-set forth the credit which to us belongs, for the part that men and women of
-Irish blood took in bringing about the reign of liberty and freedom we now
-enjoy.... We do not wish to praise ourselves by ‘masquerading
-in borrowed plumes,’ nor have we any desire to detract one iota from the
-credit that is honestly that of others.”</p>

-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest

-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating

-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
-visit <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/donate/">www.gutenberg.org/donate</a>.
