sent hun to Ireland, where he spent
some time at the gay court OF the Duke
Of ormoud, Lord Lieutenant, While
there he attracted considerable atten-
ton for his gallantry IN assisting TO
quell q mntiny among the troops, and
his religious impressions had so far be-
come obliterated, as to wish to enter
the military service FOR time he
managed his fathers estates in Ireland.
While thus occupied he had an OPP
portunlty OF again listening to the
preaching OF Thos. Lee, which so deeply
moved him that he became a constant
attendant at Friends meeting. In the
autumn OF 1867 he was arrested with
others at meeting at Cork and taken
before the Mayor but was shortly
released by the Earl OF orrery. lie
now became closely unidentified with
the Friends, which reaching the ears
OF ms iathcr he was immediately or
