confident key was struck at the original
gathering at Leeds. and effectually knocks on
the head the runors which have been current
for some time that Spencer himself had grow
Ing doubts on the subject OF home rule. The
audience ofOver five thousand delegates cheered
him to the echo, more than all at this passage:

Without hope is despair. We know desperate
men do desperate deeds Ii is our duty to
maintain and keep alive this spirit of
hope in the breasts Of the Irish people,
which has been given them by Gladstone.

shall eventually bring about, on the soundest
basis, a durable union with the Irish people,''
