MErRoroLIrAN HOTEL, |
New YORK, May IL, 1866.
Va ,Inhn O'MdhoneH, ESQ. !,

To John O'Mdhoney, Esq:
Brothcr,--ln my opinion you have acted
wisely and periodically in rendering your
resignation under actual circumstances. No
man worthy of that name questions your
honor and devotion to Ireland. But the
united action VIC desire so much, and
to effect which left Ireland at your
invitation, would I've impossible while you
directed affairs here. Ii must be needless
to tell you why. feel bound, however, to
say that, in sanctioning the late most de-
plorahlc divergence from the true part, yo"
not only gave proof of weakness, but CON-
mittcd crime less cXcuSablc in You thah
in any other man. For you shouiu nav
known that your project, no"cN.' ~.
ccsstul, would have resulted III '", "'"
And Won shonid have rccolicctcd no" l
su,,nortcd YOU at the critical moment,
hccauxc | believed YOU were opposed l"
nvcr, project that would lead the true
Ir;.bmru of this continent from the rlg'-
c;n,l aim and hottest duty OF the Feniah
Rrotlcrhood - direct assistance to the
men in nj the gap Everything con-
,idcrcd. then, feel impcratively called on
70 accept Your resignation. But while
accepting it | still rely upon your hearty
co.opcration, as | now rely on the co-opc-
ration Of every true man Of our race.
Convinced that the Irish people are with
me everywhere, have not doubt OF being
able to accomplish what came for, and so
in good cheer and answering faith am
yours, tratcrnally,
JAMES STEPHENS, c. o. |. r.

that crmolincs are disappearing, but will
not totally disappear before the end of
