SIR RUPERT GEORGE, BART. Late Chairman of the Transport Board. [Retired Captain.]
This officer, the third son of the late Dennis George, of Clophook, in Ireland, Esq. and a brother of the late Baron George, of the Irish Court of Exchequer, was born at Dublin January 16, 1749; and during the colonial war commanded the Vulture sloop of war on the American station.
​On the 16th July, 1781, the Vulture, in company with the Charles town of 28 guns, and Allegiance sloop, fell in with and was attacked by two large French frigates, l’Astrée of 40 guns, and l’Hermione of 36, which, after a severe action, they succeeded in beating off, thereby preserving a fleet of merchantmen which they were convoying to Spanish River. The Charlestown had 8 men slain and 14 wounded; amongst the former was her commander, Captain Evans, an active and gallant officer. The Vulture had 1 man killed and 2 wounded.
Captain George was advanced to post rank in the Amphitrite frigate, November 29, 1781; and subsequently commanded the Charlestown, on the coast of America. About the period, of the Spanish armament he was appointed to the Thisbe of 28 guns, and afterwards to the Hussar, a ship of similar force, in which he continued until the autumn of 1795, when he was nominated a Commissioner of the then recently established Transport Board, over which he presided for some years, previous to its dissolution at the conclusion of the late war.
In 1803 Commissioner George received the honor of knighthood on the occasion of his acting as proxy for a K.B. at an installation of the Knights of that order. His patent of Baronetcy is dated September 18, 1809. He married, June 30th, 1782, Margaret, daughter of Thomas Cochren, of Halifax, Esq. and by that lady had a numerous family.
Sir Rupert George died at Willesden House, co. Middlesex, January 25, 1823. His widow, if still alive, enjoys a pension of 300l. per annum during the royal pleasure.
# Royal Naval Biography/Gedge, John

JOHN GEDGE, Esq. [Post-Captain of 1821.]
Was made lieutenant in 1798; and promoted to the rank of commander for his gallant conduct in an action near Calais, of which the following is the official account:
“H.M. sloop Skylark, in the Downs, Nov. 11, 1811.
“At eight o’clock yesterday morning, Cape Grisnez bearing S.S.W. distant seven miles, I observed a division of the enemy’s flotilla, consisting of twelve gun-brigs, standing alongshore to the eastward, it then blowing strong from the southward: H.M. sloop under my command made all sail in chase. During the morning I had the satisfaction to see H.M. gun-brig Locust in shore to windward, standing towards the enemy; and I have to state, that one of the enemy’s brigs. No. 26, of four long 24-pounders and 60 men, commanded by Enseigne de vaisseaux Bouchet, has been cut out from under the fire of the batteries and musketry on the beach, and close to the rest of the flotilla, who had taken shelter in the roads of Calais. The commodore was driven on shore, and an attempt made to bring him out also; but finding a great number of troops had got on board, I relinquished the attack.
“It is impossible for me to speak too highly of the conduct of Lieutenant Gedge, commander of the Locust, who, from being in shore to windward, was the principal cause of the vessel being taken, and during the whole of the attack on the flotilla, exposed as we were for four hours to the fire of (he enemy’s batteries, deserves my highest praise and recommendation; and I beg leave to add, that the officers and crew of the Skylark conducted themselves to my entire satisfaction.
(Signed)“James Boxer.”
“To Rear-Admiral Foley.”
Lieutenant Gedge had previously captured, close to Dunkirk, a French national vessel, carrying two long 12-pounders, with small arms. His commission as commander bears date, Nov. 15, 1811 ; from which period we find no mention of him until his appointment to the Cadmus, a 10-gun brig-sloop, Sept. 10, 1816. He obtained post rank, July 19, 1821.

# Royal Naval Biography/Geary, John

Layout 2
JOHN GEARY, Esq. [Commander.]
Was wounded while serving as midshipman on board the Monarch 74, Captain (now Sir Richard) Lee, in action with a squadron of French frigates, Sept. 25th, 1806. His promotion to the rank of lieutenant took place on the 29th May, 1807. The following is taken from the Naval Chronicle, vol. 24, p. 434:
“On the 9th, 10th, and 12th Nov. 1810, a court-martial was held on Lieut. John Geary, of H.M. schooner Mullet, for not having done his utmost to execute the orders of Sir Robert Calder, in proceeding with the mails to Surinam, Berbice, and Demerara, but returned twice to port. Lieutenant Geary’s defence was, that the sickly state of his crew prevented him. The Court sentenced him to be severely reprimanded.”
We next find Lieutenant Geary serving under Captain Robert Henderson, in the Tigris frigate, on the Irish station, and at the Leeward Islands. In April 1818, he was appointed first of the Phaeton 46, Captain William Henry Dillon, fitting out for a voyage to the East Indies; and on his return home, in Oct. 1819, he was dismissed from that ship and severely reprimanded, by the sentence of a court-martial, for having concealed two deserters from the band of H.M. 18th regiment, whilst under sailing orders at Portsmouth. He appears to have subsequently commanded an East Indiaman. His advancement to the rank he now holds took place on the 17th Feb. 1831.

# Royal Naval Biography/Hamilton, Charles Powell

Layout 2
CHARLES POWELL HAMILTON, Esq Admiral of the Red.
This officer obtained Post rank May 18, 1779, and commanded the Apollo frigate, at the close of the American war. In 1793, he was appointed to the Canada of 74 guns. On the 6th Nov., in the following year, that ship, in company with the Alexander, of the same force, commanded by the late Sir Richard Rodney Bligh, having escorted the Lisbon and Mediterranean convoys to a certain distance, and being on their return to port, fell in with a French squadron under Rear-Admiral Neuilly. By the superior sailing of the Canada, Captain Hamilton, after sustaining a running fight with two ships of the line and a frigate, was enabled to effect his escape; but the Alexander had the misfortune to be captured, after a most gallant defence of three hours duration, against thrice her own force.
Some time after the above event, Captain Hamilton removed into the Prince, of 98 guns, and was attached to Lord Bridport’s fleet, when that nobleman took two French line-of-battle ships, and recaptured the Alexander, off l’Orient, June 23, 1795. On this occasion, however, the Prince was not fortunate enough to get into action.
Our officer was promoted to the rank of Rear-Admiral, Feb. 20, 1797; Vice-Admiral, Jan. 1, 1801; and full Admiral, April 28, 1808.
His son married, in March, 1805, to a daughter of the late Judge Hyde.

# Responsibilities/Running to Paradise

RUNNING TO PARADISE
As I came over Windy Gap
They threw a halfpenny into my cap,
For I am running to Paradise;
And all that I need do is to wish
And somebody puts his hand in the dish
To throw me a bit of salted fish:
And there the king is but as the beggar.
My brother Mourteen is worn out
With skelping his big brawling lout,
And I am running to Paradise;
A poor life do what he can,
And though he keep a dog and a gun,
A serving maid and a serving man:
And there the king is but as the beggar.
Poor men have grown to be rich men,
And rich men grown to be poor again,
And I am running to Paradise;
And many a darling wit's grown dull
That tossed a bare heel when at school,
Now it has filled an old sock full:
And there the king is but as the beggar.
The wind is old and still at play
While I must hurry upon my way,
For I am running to Paradise;
Yet never have I lit on a friend
To take my fancy like the wind
That nobody can buy or bind:
And there the king is but as the beggar.
# Responsibilities/On hearing that the Students of our New University have joined the Ancient Order of Hibernians

ON HEARING THAT THE STUDENTS OF OUR NEW UNIVERSITY HAVE JOINED THE ANCIENT ORDER OF HIBERNIANS AND THE AGITATION AGAINST IMMORAL LITERATURE
Where, where but here have Pride and Truth,
That long to give themselves for wage,
To shake their wicked sides at youth
Restraining reckless middle-age.
# Responsibilities/Reconciliation

Some may have blamed you that you took away
The verses that could move them on the day
When, the ears being deafened, the sight of the eyes blind
With lightning you went from me, and I could find
Nothing to make a song about but kings,
Helmets, and swords, and half-forgotten things
That were like memories of you—but now
We'll out, for the world lives as long ago;
And while we're in our laughing, weeping fit,
Hurl helmets, crowns, and swords into the pit.
But, dear, cling close to me; since you were gone,
My barren thoughts have chilled me to the bone.
# Responsibilities/Paudeen

PAUDEEN
Indignant at the fumbling wits, the obscure spite
Of our old Paudeen in his shop, I stumbled blind
Among the stones and thorn trees, under morning light;
Until a curlew cried and in the luminous wind
A curlew answered; and suddenly thereupon I thought
That on the lonely height where all are in God's eye,
There cannot be, confusion of our sound forgot,
A single soul that lacks a sweet crystaline cry.
# Responsibilities/No Second Troy

NO SECOND TROY
Why should I blame her that she filled my days
With misery, or that she would of late
Have taught to ignorant men most violent ways,
Or hurled the little streets upon the great,
Had they but courage equal to desire?
What could have made her peaceful with a mind
That nobleness made simple as a fire,
With beauty like a tightened bow, a kind
That is not natural in an age like this,
Being high and solitary and most stern?
Why, what could she have done being what she is?
Was there another Troy for her to burn?
# Responsibilities/Peace

PEACE
Ah, that Time could touch a form
That could show what Homer's age
Bred to be a hero's wage.
'Were not all her life but storm,
Would not painters paint a form
Of such noble lines,' I said,
'Such a delicate high head,
All that sternness amid charm,
All that sweetness amid strength?'
Ah, but peace that comes at length,
Came when Time had touched her form.
# Responsibilities/September 1913

SEPTEMBER 1913
What need you, being come to sense,
But fumble in a greasy till
And add the halfpence to the pence
And prayer to shivering prayer, until
You have dried the marrow from the bone;
For men were born to pray and save:
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone,
It's with O'Leary in the grave.
Yet they were of a different kind
The names that stilled your childish play,
They have gone about the world like wind,
But little time had they to pray
For whom the hangman's rope was spun,
And what, God help us, could they save:
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone,
It's with O'Leary in the grave.
Was it for this the wild geese spread
The grey wing upon every tide;
For this that all that blood was shed,
For this Edward Fitzgerald died,
And Robert Emmet and Wolfe Tone,
All that delirium of the brave;
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone,
It's with O'Leary in the grave.
Yet could we turn the years again,
And call those exiles as they were,
In all their loneliness and pain
You'd cry 'some woman's yellow hair
Has maddened every mother's son': They weighed so lightly what they gave,
But let them be, they're dead and gone,
They're with O'Leary in the grave.
# Responsibilities/That the Night come

THAT THE NIGHT COME
She lived in storm and strife,
Her soul had such desire
For what proud death may bring
That it could not endure
The common good of life,
But lived as 'twere a king
That packed his marriage day
With banneret and pennon,
Trumpet and kettledrum,
And the outrageous cannon,
To bundle time away
That the night come.
# Responsibilities/The Attack on 'The Playboy of the Western World,' 1907

THE ATTACK ON 'THE PLAYBOY OF THE WESTERN WORLD,' 1907
Once, when midnight smote the air,
Eunuchs ran through Hell and met
From thoroughfare to thoroughfare,
While that great Juan galloped by;
And like these to rail and sweat
Staring upon his sinewy thigh.

Prologue
As within a castle's ruins Steals a full moon's shining ray; As within a forest's shadows Colored butterfly has strayed, As within a rusty goblet Falls a drop of golden wine; Thus within my saddened bosom And within my orphaned heart Gleamed a ray of love eternal, Strayed a butterfly of dreams, Fell a droplet of my musing; Tell me, is there aught yet needed To complete this song of mine? . . .

ROBERT DUDLEY OLIVER, Esq Rear-Admiral of the White.
This officer was a Midshipman on board the Prince George, of 98 guns, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Digby, at New York, in 1781; received his first commission about the year 1790; was senior Lieutenant of the Artois, commanded by Captain (now Sir Edmund) Nagle, at the capture of la Revolutionnaire French frigate, Oct. 21, 1794; and for his conduct on that occasion, was soon after promoted to the command of the Hazard sloop in the North Sea. He was afterwards employed on the Irish station, where he continued until advanced to the rank of Post-Captain, in the Seahorse frigate, April 30, 1796. He subsequently commanded the Nemesis, of 28 guns; and, in 1798, convoyed a fleet of merchantmen to and from Quebec.
Early in 1799, our officer was appointed to the Mermaid, another small frigate, in which he proceeded to the Mediterranean, and was for some time engaged in the important service of cutting off the supplies destined for the enemy’s troops at Genoa. On the 1st June, 1800, he captured la Cruelle French brig of war, off the Hières islands; and in the following year, a transport brig, and several other vessels, with valuable cargoes. He returned to England July 12, 1802.
On the renewal of hostilities, in 1803, Captain Oliver ​obtained the command of the Melpomene frigate; and in the summer of the following year, we find him stationed off Havre, which place was twice bombarded by the vessels under his orders, and sustained considerable damage. Towards the latter end of 1805, he removed into the Mars, of 74 guns; and on the 28th July, 1806, captured le Rhin, a very fine French frigate, of 44 guns and 318 men. His next appointment was to the Valiant, another third-rate, in which ship he was employed on the American station during the late contest with the United States, and occasionally commanded a detached squadron. He became a Rear-Admiral, Aug. 12, 1819.
Our officer married, in June 1805, Philadelphia Hannah, daughter of the late Commissioner Sir Charles Saxton, Baronet.
Residence.– Fitzwilliam Square, North, Dublin.

THOMAS OLIVER, Esq. [Commander.]
Obtained his first commission, and commanded the Berbice schooner, at the Leeward Islands, in 1793; was wounded while serving as a lieutenant of the Leyden 68, at the unsuccessful attack made by Lord Nelson upon the Boulogne flotilla, in the night of Aug 15th, 1801; promoted to his present rank in Jan. 1806; and appointed to the command of the Apelles sloop, on the North Sea station, about Sept. 1808. He was attached to the expedition against Walcheren, in 1809; and we subsequently find him capturing a French privateer, of 18 guns and 56 men.
Mr. James, in his Naval History, Vol. III. p. 187, gives this officer the credit of having performed a “noble exploit,” at Mariel, in the island of Cuba, April 5th, 1805; and follows up his error, by observing, in the succeeding page, that “the name of Thomas Oliver among the commanders of the year ​shows, that his conduct, as all similar conduct ought, excited the notice of those to whom the power belonged of dispensing rewards to the brave and meritorious.” The service in question, viz. the storming of a tower, and cutting out of two vessels, laden with sugar, was performed in the manner Mr. James has stated, but under the directions of Lieutenant James Oliver, who did not obtain the rank of commander until Dec. 4th, 1813.
