Smith O'Brien.

| Y}le following extract is taken from
O'Neill Daunt's History OF Ireland,
just published:
Smith O'Brien was born in October,
1903. His remote ancestors were The
royal O'Briens, of whose family Brian
Boroimhe was a member. He WAS the
second son of the late Sir Edward
O'Brlen, baronet, of Dronoland, coun-
ty Glare, and heir to the estates Of his
maternal grandfather, MIR, William
Smith. He spent three years at Har-
row School, and took his degree at
Trini y College, Cambridge, In 1928
he was brought into Parliament by his
father for the borough of Ennis, d close
borough to which the O'Rrien family
and the late Lord Fitzgerald alternate
ly possessed the nomination. He ar
IDENTITY supported the Catholic claims,
and enrolled himself a member OF the
Catholic Association in the year Of his
return to Parliament. He did NOT, in
the House OF Commons, give a. regular
support to the Tory ministry, although
h1s father was politician Of The class
/ called Liberal CONSERVATIVES; but after
the Duke al Wellington carried eman-
cipation and lost the support Of the
ultra Tories, Mir. O'Brien became a
supporter in general OF the government
voting, however, against it upon some
questions involving constitutional prin
ciples. In 1881 he lost his seat on the
dissolution which followed the defeat
OF the Wings on the reform bill. On
that measure Mr.. o. O'Brien did not vote.

ed against General Gascoignes motion
declaring that the number and propor-
ton of English representatives OUGHT
to continue undin,inished. In 1882
he was invited to stand for Ennis in
the Liberal interest, but having trans
ferred his residence from the county
Clare to the county Limerick, he de.
cIined the invitation. In 1884, he re-
entered Parliament for the county of
Limerick, and from that year until 1913
he generally acted with the Liberal
Wings. giving them an independent
support, but opposing them whenever
he deemed them in the wrong-for ex-
ample, on the Jamaica question. Dur
ling their tenure Of Office, he neither
asked nor received any favor for him

tory may be honestly won, you must
satisfy all that is implied in the term
confession, SO I must give you a pen

The young man turned pale, but said
nothing.
"Do not be afraid, my friend; a man
as brave as you are, who dares to
affront the anger of God for 8 break
fast, must not trsmble atthe thought Of
little act of satisfaction
This stroke went straight to the
heart of the sinner.
! Il promise you, Father (the word
passed his lips for the first timel, to do
what you require; but please make It
neither long nor QimculI."
'sIt will be very easy and very short.
For the next fortnight beginning with

before going to bed and say aloud,
sounding each word clearly: i know
that I am to die, but [ don't care. /

aloud the expiatory words, The first

indifference. saying, Il am to go to the
thea1re.'' The next day it was said a
little more seriously. But the third
day he could not avoid making certain
reAsctions-death is SO nlournful.
Another day, and the idea OF the mex

all men made him think OF W hat awaits

the fearful sentence on the sixth even

claiming, es, / know that I will die

The salutary fear which had seized him
filled his sleep with visions awful to
