nearly an hour had been consumed in the work
of forming the procession, a start was made
amid the crash of q score of brass bands and
the waving of blazing torches.

cession started a score of enthusiastic men

places, dragging the carriage in triumph the
whole way to the rotunda- Mr.. Parneu re-
ceived an ovation all along the route. The hall
had been packed almost to suffocation for an
hour previous to the arrival Of the procession.
When Mr.. Parnell finally managed to get inside
he found it impossible to reach the platform
in any way other than on the shoulders of the
crowd.

confidence in Mr.. Parnell was passed amid

effect that the plans of Mr.. Gladstone in regard
to home rule would not be found satisfactory

ence and e1torted the proper degree of local
