than before. William o Brien had been
invited to address meeting of McCar-
thyites in the suburbs of Cork. The
McCarthyites were armed with stout
sticks, and many of them had their

A solid bodyguard closed around Mr..
O'Brien, to protect him in case OF an on
slaught.
Meantime the Parnellites were not
sleeping. They gathered in the heart of
the city, in an enormous crowd, with
banners, torches and bands, the bands

be heard and to say something to quiet
the furious encounter, received a severe
blow in the rear from a missile that was
thrown
The struggle was one hand to hand,

blood. Among the combatunts could be
seen the big lrm of Jack O'Connor, his
blackthorn waving like the plume oi
Navarro.
