A LIttle LIaht on the subisot.

A few weeks ago much comment. hu-
norous and otherwise, says the Dublin
Freeman, was made in the English
press upon the discovery that in the
West Indies there are a large number
of negroes who not only bear Irish
names and are Catholics, but who also
talk Gaelic with f1uency. Some of the
writers expressed themselves as being
amazed at the mystery" But it is no
mystery at all. It is an outcome of
British misrule and tyranny in Ireland.
The Catholic negroes in the West In.
dies owe their religion and their Ian
guage to contact with the immense
number of Irish who were sold as
slaves In the Cromwellian era to West
Indian planters. ''Slave dealers"
writes Lock, were let loose on the,
land. and many hundreds of boys and
marriageable girls, guilty of no offense
whatever, were torn away from their
country, shipped to Barbados, and sold
as slaves to the planters. Merchants
from Bristol entered keenly into the
