LETTER FROM COLONEL TOM. KELLY.
LONDON, December 18th, 1867.
To the Editor of the Dublin Nation.
SIR ask permission to make short appeal to much
outraged countrymen through your columns nasmuch
former appeal of Irshmen in general to be
disregarded within the past week.
While admit the difficulty of remaining passive at
time and of reraning from determined expression
of resentment against the horrible outrage against
the whole Irish by the Manchester executions yet
again must urge that that outrage eveled by the oil
garchy against their victims much for being democrats
for being lrshmen.
In my letter. copied into your paper recently expressed
my heartfelt satisfaction that had resulted
setting Irish against English suc Catholic against
Protestant which soemny believe to be the result aimed
at in the Manchester executions had hoped make the
sad affair means of cemenng the alliance between the
democracy of both countries for the oppressors well know
that such consummaon would be their death-kne; but
if regardless of alliance with the English organized
democracy jealous but late accessons the national
ranks persist in acting regardless of national policy
and what owe English brethren, and inudciously
and nurouy their wrath in isolated destruction of
private property it remains but for me to
reprobae such doing the work of the common
enemy.
can we'll understand such course being adopted by
organized enemies governmental and otherwise, by
the hands of friends who should not fail see as our
enemies do that it throws doubt pledges
English brethren.
