Refused Permission to Speak in the
Chapel Grounds by the Priest-Two
Meetings Organized-Mr. Parnell's
Address.
KILKENNY, Dec. 21.-Mr. Parnell and
Mr.. Scully, the Parnellite candidate for
parliament, left here at noon to-day and
drove in closed carriage to Glare. They
were accompanied by a long procession of
cars filled with Parnell's supporters. Up
on arriving at Glare the Parnellites found
meeting proceeding opposite the Catholic
chapel in support of Sir John Pope Hem
messy. When Mr.. Parnell reached the
crowd a priest, Father Walsh, addressing
Mr.. Parnell, said:
"These are chapel grounds. You must
not speak here"
A local farmer here interposed, saying
that the ground did not belong to the
chapel; that it was Keogh's fields and that
Parnell had perfect right to speak there.
Mr.. Parnen invited Father Walsh to hear
both sides. Arrangements had been made
to hold the meeting in that field, he said,
and it must proceed. Father Walsh then
requested everybody on his side to leave
with him, and some few persons followed
the priest and Sir Thomas Esmonde, who
was also present
A meeting was then organized and Mr..
Parnell made an address. He said that al
though his party did not have all the
clergy on its side, he had no harsh words
for any one of them. He desired the peo-
pie to listen to the voice of the priests and
to reverence their position as priests. Yet
as laymen the people could not admit the
priests absolutely to control the elections
He proceeded to inveigh against the
traitorous mutineers who were enfeebling
the party at a most critical moment. He
asked his hearers to consider his political
past and to look into his innermost and
say whether they found any wrong there
as regarded his guidance Of the national
policy. (Cries Of emo, no.'D He could not
look an assemblage of his countrymen in
the face if he did not speak the truth.
After some further remarks Mr.. Parnell
concluded his speech and leaving Glare,
| accompanied by Mr.. Scully, drove six
| miles to Johnswell where another meeting
was held. While Mr.. Scully was address,
| ing this meeting Timothy Harrington ar
| rived and was received by the crowd with
much enthusiasm. Being called upon for
| speech Mr.. Harrington addressed the
meeting. In the course of his remarks he
said that his colleagues in America had
been led astray by messages from this side
of the ocean. "We," he said, "regretting
that the enlightened majority party in
| parliament had taken a leader, bound hand
and foot to a British statesman, asked Chow
much did you give this man?' Nothing
was better calculated to shame and dis
He reminded the electors that they had

which was watching to sieze every point

i was parliament that would fully sat
isfy the peoples aspirations. To achieve
this the people must stand by their leaders
and not leave Ireland to the incapable per
sons who were trying to step into his shoes.

that if he thought he could leave the desti

he would cheerfully and willingly steI
