Book excerpt: Excerpt from Is Ulster Right?: A Statement of the Question at Issue Between Ulster and the Nationalist Party, and of the Reasons Historical, Political, and Financial Why Ulster Is Justified in Opposing Home Rule I have no desire unnecessarily to wound the feelings of those who take a different view; if it can be shown that any of my statements are incor rect or my inference illogical, I shall be glad to correct them; but to mere abuse, such as the Nationalists are in the habit of pouring on Unionist writers, I shall pay no heed. I admit that it may be said that there are several matters which I ought to have gone into more fully; to that I can only reply that I wished to be as brief as. Possible, and that I have done my best to compress with fairness. What I am really anxious to do is to draw the attention of thoughtful readers, before it is too late.

Download or read book The Great Fraud of Ulster Classic Reprint written by Timothy Michael Healy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Fraud of Ulster These pages give a shorter, and, it is hoped, a less legal, setting to facts published for the first time some five years ago under the title, Stolen Waters. They chiefly concern those counties of Ulster lately threatened with severance from the rest of Ireland. The story, such as it is, has been re-told and simplified in the hope that acquaintance with it may quicken and heighten the spirit of resistance to the statecraft of Partition. Ar stubborn fight for a great stake has been waged in the disputed area for three hundred years, and the struggle to clutch the prize exhibits more starkly than any other single theme the felonious continuity of anglo-ulster administration. 1 Those in control of Irish government calmly look down on the spectacle of a noble public heritage abandoned to a privy paw. Wiseacres advise the losers and the wronged to forget the past. No people have more need to remember it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Truth about Ulster  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Truth about Ulster Classic Reprint written by F. Frankfort Moore and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Truth About Ulster I felt inclined to ask myself when had Ulster not been fighting? She has been fighting for precisely the same Cause at intervals during the past fifty years, and for nearly three hundred years previously she had been fighting with an enemy who was the same, although wearing a different uniform. So that I fancy the question of the hour should be, Will Ulster continue to fight? Rather than Will Ulster Fight? Perhaps someone will be able to point out what changes that make for a cessation of the hostilities of three hundred years have taken place in the spirit of Ulster during the past three or four years, so that we can sleep peacefully in our beds on this side of the Channel in the assur anc'e that Ulster - with all who have most to lose by a fight on the side of fighting - will refrain; whereas in other days the same people were ever seeking peace, but quite powerless to ensue it. The Belfast riots have occupied a place as a modern journalistic headline with as great fidelity of recurrence as Halley's com'et or an eruption of Mount Vesuvius. There have really been few riots that could be called periodic. The Chartist demonstrations were like fireworks that have felt the damp of an inclement summer, and the frame breakers, though nasty, were never to be depended on. A few thousand people pulled down the rail ings at Hyde Park more than forty years ago, and were never heard of again; and equally intermittent were the people who, with Mr. John Burns, fought for an hour or two with the Guards in Trafalgar Square twenty years later - only Mr. John Burns has been heard of a good deal since; but the Belfast Riots as a headline might have been kept stand ing. During the past half - century every period of quietude has been followed by one of activity among the riotous elements of Ulster; and the scientific explanation of the recurrence compared With the dispersion of the others to which I have referred, is simple enough: in Ulster the volcanic condi tions have been intensified rather than reduced; but elsewhere the reasons for the outbreaks have been removed; and rioters usually have listened to reason a day or so too late.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ulster: A Brief Statement of Fact The dawn Of history in Ireland finds the whole people of Ireland with a common language, common ideals and traditions, common social and political institutions, and a common literature. In political and social organisation their constructive instinct was federal rather than feudal, and individuality and individual freedom were fostered. The Provincial Kings gave a nominal deference to a High King, who was one of themselves, and Kings and Chiefs were regarded, and regarded themselves, as trustees rather than as owners. Their privileges and rights appertained to their position, to which they were elected by the popular voice, and not to themselves per sonally. Allegiance was to the Clan, then to the Province, and finally the symbolic, rather than rigid, allegiance to the Nation in the person of the elected High King, but never to any individual. The whole feudal idea was abhorrent to the Irish mind, and when feudal organisation was sought to be thrust on the nation by the English, they fought it so long as they had the power to do so. And the federal instinct, although suppressed by law, still finds expression in the co-operative movement. Early Ireland was a wealthy country and a civilised country, rich in crops and in cattle and in manufactures, its fairs thronged with the merchants Of the Continent, its harbours thronged with their shipping, and its own ship ping thronging the harbours of the Continent. It was a country of great schools, where learning was taught free to strangers, where the lamp Of European culture was kept burning when it had flickered almost to extinction in Europe itself.

Book The Red Hand of Ulster  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Red Hand of Ulster Classic Reprint written by G. A. Birmingham and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Red Hand of Ulster The events recorded in this chapter and the next did not fall under my own observation. I derived my knowledge of them from various sources, chiefly from conversations with Bob Power, who had, as will ap pear, first-hand knowledge. In the third chapter I begin my own personal narrative of the events which led up to the final struggle of Ulster against Home Rule and of the struggle itself. Accidents of one kind or another, the accidents of the situation of Kilmore Castle, the accident of Bob Power's connection with my daughter Marion, the accidents of my social po sition and personal tastes, have placed me in a position to give a very full account of what actually happened. The first two chapters of this book will therefore be written in the impersonal manner of the ordinary his tory; I myself occupying the position of unseen spec tator. The rest of the book is largely founded upon the diary which I actually kept. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ulster and Ireland At the climax of the anti-Home Rule campaign in the spring of 1914, a correspondent of one of the Continental papers, so the story runs in Belfast, had the good luck to be granted an interview with Sir Edward Carson. Having penetrated through the ranks of the Ulster Volunteers, who in those days kept watch and ward over the Ulster leader, the journalist was ushered into the Council Chamber of the Provisional Government. He was received with that courtesy which Sir Edward Carson always extends to the Press; but the great man gently remarked that, as urgent affairs demanded his attention, he would take it as a favour if questions were made as brief and concise as possible. "Certainly, Sir Edward," said the interviewer. "What I particularly want to know is how did this Ulster trouble come about!" "My dear fellow," replied Sir Edward, with his sweetest smile, "to explain that I should have to go back in history for at least three centuries. It would take me about a month to do so, and at the end I suspect you wouldn't understand." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Irish Home Rule Classic Reprint written by S. G. Hobson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irish Home Rule The balance-sheet showing Ireland's true revenue, which appears on page 93, is drawn up by Mr John J. Horgan, and influenced, I think, by the letters of Mr R. A. Atkins. I believe it to be substantially accurate. I am also indebted to Professor T. M. Kettle, whose raid into Irish finance has deeply affected the political situation. I am sorry that, at this critical moment in the history of Ireland, Parliament is deprived of the light which this brilliant young Irishman could shed upon the problem. It always happens to every writer that his work is old the moment it is completed. I am no exception to the rule. Events are now moving with such rapidity that every day brings forth some new and important fact in connection with the Home Rule controversy. To avoid misunderstanding, therefore, I would like to remark that this' very inadequate study was practically completed by 31st December 1911. I have since successfully resisted every impulse to cut and chop and change my written word. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annals of Ulster: From 1790 to 1798 The resolutions entered into by them were expressive of their regret at the recall of Earl Fitzwilliam, and their fears that the venal, profuse and tyrannical measures of a former administration were to be persevered in. They likewise declared, that his lordship had, by his purposed measures, proved himself the true friend of Ireland, by associating, in his councils, men of virtue and talent; and they expressed their determination to employ every constitutional means in their power to obtain the two great objects, so essentially necessary to the peace, safety, and happiness of Ireland - complete Catholic emancipation, and a radical reform in the representation of the people. An address was also voted to his Excellency, which the chairman was instructed to forward to him. Two days afterwards a numerous meeting of the Roman Catholics of the same county was held in the town of Antrim. Mr. Luke Teeling, chairman; Mr. Charles H. Teeling, secretary. They also expressed their sorrow of the recall of Earl Fitzwilliam to whom they resolved to present an address. In which they said - As friends to mankind we regret your departure from power, as Irishmen we deplore the misfortune to our country, and dread a revival of that system of monopoly and disunion so fatally experienced. In their resolutions they complimented the volunteers, whom they called The immortal volunteers of Ulster, (b) and declared that they would unite with their Protestant brethren in every legal and constitutional means for promoting the good of the nation.

Book Ulster Biographies

Download or read book Ulster Biographies written by W. T. Latimer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ulster Biographies: Relating Chiefly to the Rebellion of 1798 It is certain that great civil and religious Oppression existed in Ireland during the last century; but we must remember that measures of reform have now been granted more radical than Porter was hanged for demanding. From this fact a strong argument may be drawn for maintaining the supremacy of the Imperial Parliament by which these grievances have been removed. The Irish people have no longer to support a Church to which they do not belong; rents are no longer fixed by the landlords themselves, and justice is no longer administered by the Agent and the Rector, but by impartial tribunals. While I condemn the system of landlordism that prevailed in the past, I have no intention of making any attack on the present landlords. Almost all the conditions of their ownership have been so much modified that very little of what applied to their political position in 1798, has any reference to it now.
