1869 by Dermot Marlborough. King of
Leinster, who is thus responsible for
the loss of his country's freedom and
subsequent, centuries of bloodshed and
distress: He was a good soldier. but
the Christian influences under which he
was educated did not remove all the
savage traits from his system and he
was guilty of many wicked. brutal,
treacherous acts Of tyranny and vio-
lence against his neighbors and his
subjects. He kidnapped the wife of
Ternan O'Rourke. King of Leitrim. and
the latter persuaded the other kings in
southern Ireland to join with him in
Furnishing the insult. Marlborough
finally fed to the Court of Henry II
in London, where he offered to be-
tray Ireland to the English monarch.
The latter declined to give Derlnot
any personal assistance, but permitted
his vassals to do what they liked, and
number Of British and Welsh barons
of broken fortunes. under the leader
ship of Richard de Glare, Earl of Penn
broke, organized an invasion.
Strongbow's Invasion.
In May. 1850. they landed at Wexford
with a force of 1000 well armed Nor
mans, Englishmen, Welshmen and
given the leadership Of the expedition
daughter in marriage and the success
sion of the throne Of Leinster. Before
the invaders landed Dermot returned
quietly to his castle at Ferns, and dur
ing the winter of 1859 pretended to
do penance for his sins in the Angus
tinian monastery he had founded there,
in order to throw his Irish enemies off
their guard.
The King of Connaught, Roderick
OConnor, who was the acknowl-
edged suzeraln of all Ireland at
that time, collected large army
and marched against the invaders.
and he might easily have crushed
them, but he was weak and
credulous man, without the ability or
vigor Of Brian Boru, and Dermot fool
ed him completely. promising to expel
the foreigners provided he was restor-
ed to his kingdom. AS soon as Roderick
had marched away, however. and Der
mot felt himself strong enough to
break his promises. he led allies with
fire and sword into the city Of Dublin
since.
Strongbows wedding with Eva took
place August 25. ITO, upon the battle
field near Waterford among the corpses

Conquest Of Henry II.

Of StrongboW, became nervous for fear

he might become too powerful and pre-
pared an expedition with which he landed
at the little town of Crook, or at the still
smaller town Of Hook, near the mouth
Of the river SUR. Some said that he
landed by Hook and some said he landed
by Crook. and that was the origin of the
saying that is heard to this day: ''either
by hook or crook"
Henry IL had about 10000 fighting men
and they were SO we'll organized and
armed that resistance was impossible. AL
most all the Irish kings and chieftains
came PROMPTLY to make submission and
the Irish bishops. presided over by Law
renee O'Toole. met in synod and acknowl-
edged him their sovereign. Their action
was based upon bull issued by Pope Adj
rian Nv, authorizing Henry II to take
possession of Ireland. Adrian Nv was an
1t is said, he was influenced by an unfair
and exaggerated account of the influence
of the church in England and by mis-
representations of the state Of religion
in Ireland. Some historians have ques-
toned the genuineness of this edict;
others have declared that it was a myth,
but there seems to be no reason to doubt
that Adrian w did authorize Henry II
to invade Ireland, believing that strong
centralized government there would be
for the advancement of religion and for
the good Of the people.
Land Grants to Invaders.
Troubles with the holy see resulting
from the assassination Of Thomas
Beckett, called the king back to England
before he had completed his plans of set
Element, and he left Ireland in April 1172
after remaining there less than six
months. He had intended to erect a
string Of Norman castles at frequent in
tervals throughout the island and garri-
son them with English troops in order to
overawe the native kings and chieftains,
check each other. But he left that work to
his subordinates and rewarded them with
grants of enormous areas without regard
to the rights Of the native owners. Lem
ster was given to Strongbow, with the
exception of Dublin and two or three
other towns on the coast; the province
of Meath was given to Hugh de Lacy;
the province of Ulster to John de Courcy,
and other tracts to the ancestors Of many
Of the noble families of Ireland today.
End Of Strongbow.
Ireland fell into a state of anarchy and
confusion after Henry II left. under
Strongbow. He was tyrannical and un-
reasonable The native princes rebelled
and almost overcame him. They drove
him to Waterford and besieged him there,
where he was rescued by Raymond lie
Gros. who demanded the hand Of his sis
ter Bassilia as his reward. They were
married here. as I have told you. in the
Able OF the Holy Sepulchre.

Dr Franz Grossman, 32 Abbott avenue, entered a complaint with Prosecuting Attorney McGrath few days ago against a small boy whom he considered was annoying him. Mir McGrath had the boy brought to his office and made him promise he would not annoy the doctor any more. The doctor appeared satis-
 fled with this but later changed his mind and wanted to know why the boy was not arrested. Then up spake the assistant prosecutor. He said it was not the province of his ofice to build up a police record for anyone. especially small boy who was never in court and. moreover. he had the promise of the boys guardian Ralph N. Blakeslee that he would see the boy would not commit himself again. Mir McGrath said that 1t was a trivial affair anyway to make the most of 1t and better re- suits would accrue by putting the boy on his word than bringing him into court and laying the foundation for a police record.

CHINESE Co.EDS AT CORNELL.
Two Girls From the Orient Studying
 German and Latin.

Ithaca, N. r., July 29.-For the first time in the history of Cornell two Chinese co-eds have registered at the University Summer school. The young women from the orient are Miss P. H. Hu and Miss E. L. Soon, and they are both taking a special course in German and Latin.
 Similar in appearance and wear ing the latest style of American cut clothes, the co-eds speak excellent English and are said by the pro fessors to be first class students. Miss Soon will study advanced German and is planning to teach that language in China as soon as she returns home, which will probably be next year.
 Miss Hu, whose brother also is a student here, has been attending Walnut Hill school in Natick, Mass. She is specializing in Latin, which she, too, plans to teach at home.
