Justice at Last Through the Coufess1oaa

Justice at Last through the Confessional
An extraordinary case Of restitution
has come to light at Eyrceolrt, County
Galway, Ireland. The kedemptorist
Fathers had been holding a mission
there, and Immediately on it's conclusion
one of the rev. gentlemen forwarded 10
the local constabulary authorities the
sum of e4S, given to him under the seal
Of the confessional by person attending
the services. The only explanation WI
that the money was found ten years ago,
on the road from C]onfert to Laurel CO;
town, and the finder kept it, although
the owner was known, until he became
conscience stricken at one OF the Re
dt a florist Fathers sermons on honesty
an d gave it UP. The fact clears up
m, st ry. Ten years ago Constable Gregg,
of the Clonfert force, was entrusted to
carry e48, the wages Of the men, from
Laurencetown to his station where he
reported that he had lost it. His story
was not accepted, and he was ordered to
make up the money. His comrades, be-
lieyina in his honesty, subscribed e3l,
and Gregg managed to make up the bal
ance, which was a heavy drain on his
small income, he being married man
with a family. He never appeared to
have recovered from the effects of being
suspected OF stealing the money, and the
poor fellow died soon afterwards. Now
the circumstance is cleared up, as we'll
as Cregg's character, by the confession
Of the finder. The police authorities have
bestowed the e48 on Cregg's widow.

useful to take q lesson from the enemy
il you can. He said the Irish people
we're sick Of Home Rule. He said they
we're obliged to send out Mr.. Blake to
America and to Canada to collect funds
to keep their representatives in Parlia-
ment, and he said il the Irish people
cared about Home Rule they could easily
sustain their representatives. All honor
to Mr.. Blake. He is one of the noblest
Irishmen we ever had in the party, and
it is perfectly true that he has gone to
America and to Canada, and that he has
done ten mems work for Ireland. It be-
hooves the people of Ireland to give the
lie to Mr.. Chamberlain, to show that
they do care for Home Rule, that the old
spirit is still alive, and that they must
pay for the winning of it. The Unionist
party voted $4,000 last year for politi-
cal purposes, and I am credibly informed
they spent 100000 in England against
Home Rule. We had very little money
to spare seeing that We had to support
the evicted tenants / don't think we
spent G500 in England as against their
100000. We must have money to eus-
tain the party in fighting English CON
stituencies, and to be ready for the elec-
tions when they come; and if the people
of Ireland are determined to win, as l
know they are, the must by parochial
collections throughout the country sap
ply us with the necessary means to carry
on this war on an equal footing with the
landlords; and if they do promise them
we will sweep the constituencies for
Home Rule. There has been good deal
said about the best per Cd for a general
election. confess l would like to have
a little time before general election, to
get ready for it. We are ready enough
for it in Ireland; but what is the object
of the general election? can see no
no object except to secure such major
ity for Home Rule as will make the
House of Lords shake. Some men are
afraid that we may cons Mt to postpone
Home Rule until the House of Lords is
abolished Nothing of the kind. The
two agitations can go along, like good
pair OF horses, breast to breast. In this
way l believe i5 is best to have fresh
steam behind Home Rule, so that the
two may be working together, and you
will find the House of Lords easily dealt
with if you have not only al agitation in
favor Of Home Rule but also str ng
agitation directed against themselves.
Therefore. say TO the people of I Gland
be loyal to yourselves, prove your
earnestness by supporting the Irish
party as it deserves to be supported,
stand by the rules and traditions that
party, which, after long experience have
recommended themselves to the nation
atty of the people If Ireland, organize
on the old lines which in 1880 and 1885
proved efficient against the landlords of
this country, and promise you that; the
flag of Ireland will be carried by united
party, with a united people at It's back,
in the forefront of the battle, and planted
in q place Of triumph and of safety.
