fallen, 1900 British wotld have been
starved into submission at Ladysmith and
there would have been a general rising Of

might have recovered therefrom, but AZ
what cost? The country was saved from
this by the genius of the man he now
invited the House to reward by a unani-

the motion John Dillon. Irish Nation
