Excerpt from The Irish on the the Second Series of the Irish at the Michael Macdonagh With an Introduction by John Redmond, M. P Tms war is a war of liberation, and its battle-cry is the rights and liberties of humanity. From the very beginning of the conflict my colleagues of the Irish Party, and I myself, have availed of every opportunity in Parliament, on the platform, and in the Press, to present this view of it to the Irish race at home and abroad; and despite the tragic mistakes made in regard to Ireland by the successive Governments which have held office since war broke out, we are still unshaken in our opinion that Ireland's highest interests lie in the speedy and overwhelming victory of England and the Allies.

Excerpt from What the Irish Regiments Have Done: With a Diary of a Visit to the Front by John E. Redmond This account of what Irish regiments have done in the field during the present war does not, of course, pretend to be exhaustive. Such an account could not possibly be written at the present time, and, perhaps, never will be written. The exploits of the Irish regi ments in the various theatres of war have not, until recently, received any considerable recognition from the authorities. The names of the units engaged in military operations of the most brilliant kind have seldom been mentioned in dispatches. Have you heard of the gallant deeds of the Irish regiments.

Excerpt from The Irish in America So, too, the lesson as to the practical value of organiza tion as a weapon of political warfare has not been lost, and coupled with the organized effort of her people here, has enabled Ireland to carry forward a land agitation which, in its beginnings seemed based upon a forlorn hope, but which now, in the light of recent events, seems certain to be crowned with an abiding success. Indeed, the fruits of a struggle renewed again and again during the eighty-five years that have elapsed since the union, are almost within reach, and the land agitation which at first was only a phase of the irrepressible con fiiet, is likely to prove the key which is at last to solve the problem of a home government for Ireland. Of this result the American Irish may well feel hopeful, and without them it is not too much to say its realization would have been indefinitely postponed.

Excerpt from Some Experiences of an Irish R. M When pressed to expound this dark saying Flurry smiled wanly and snipped a second line in the hair of the puppy was pinned between his legs. I was almost relieved when a try to bite on the part of the puppy imparted to Flurry's lang a transient warmth but the reaction was only temporary. It'd be as good for me to make a present of this lot Welby as to take the price he's offering me, ' he went on, got up and took off his highly-scented kennel-coat, but I be bothered fighting him. Come on in and have somet drink tea myself at this hour.' If he had said toast and water it would have seemed than was suitable to such a frame of mind. As to the house I thought that when the day came that Flurry Knox could not be bothered with fighting old Welby things were becoming serious, but I kept this opinion to myself and merely offered an admiring comment on the roses that were blooming on the front of the house.
