MOLLY MAGUIRE
Who She Was, interestingly Told by
Swift MacNeiIi.

Swift MaoNeili.
"The Molly Maguires"-that is what
the Ancient Order of Hibernians in
Ireland is called by it's enemies. Per-
haps some of those who use it are
ignorant Of Its origin and meaning,
but some are not, and use 1t through
pure malignance, intending it as a
term Of derision and contempt, says the
New York Freeman's Journal
For this, of course, there is no
ground or justification any more than
there is for the factionist abuse Of
the Irish party. Molly Mcguire was
one of the victims of that hideous sys-
tenn of persecution in Ireland against
which for many a generation the only
defense and protection for the OPP
pressed was the Ancient Order Of Hi
bernians. The interesting story is
told as follows by Mr.. Swift MacNeill,
the Protestant Nationalist representa-
tive in Parliament for South Donegal,
in his speech at the A. O. H. demon-
stration at Letterkenny on Aug. 15:
"But there is another thing-the
Molly Maguires. 1t is meant as ter
rible name. 1t probably has been re-
peated parrot-like as term of obloquy
| and reproach, calculated to create
hatred against the society by persons
| who have no notion of who she was.
Well, she was the last in the world
who would have had any ambition for
political Immortality, or who would
wish her name to be banded about in
affairs Of political controversy. She
was poor, humble, God-fearlng wo-
man, living on q small farm near Bal
lymena. She was a widow advanced
in years. Her daughter was widow,
too, and they had become victims Of
landlord rapacity and of the crowbar
brigade. Efforts were made by the
| people of the surrounding parishes to
prevent the eviction, but they unhap-
PLY failed, and the circumstances and
incidents Of that eviction made pro-
found impression and burned them
selves into the minds and hearts Of
the people. First of all, the furniture
OF that humble cottage was thrown out
on the road, then the poor old woman,
Molly Mcguire, was dragged out, and
then her daughter, with little children
clinging to her skirts and crying. The
record of that scene. and the history
of these people became q watchword,
and the words Remember Molly Ma
guire,' became familiar, as did the
words in the charge of the Irish bril-
Igade-Remember Limerick or Re
member the martyred William Orr or
in 'S7 the words that Gladstone coined
l-Remember Mitchelstown.' If out
RACES were committed it was only be-
cause wrong bred wrong and the ex-
preston Molly Mcguire IL rightly un-
Iderstood, should not be used as a nick
name, but rather as word of honor,
inasmuch as it recalls q scene Of hor-
rible oppression and the resentment Of
the people produced by it."
Perhaps the A. o. H. defenders Of
the time made the tyrants and robbers
in the Molly Mcguire case pay a PEN
atty in some form. In those dark and
evil days "the wild justice Of revenge
was the only kind Of justice available
to the majority Of the Irish people.

i My Dear Emma: Your kind wish
that / might have a Merry Christmas
has not been fulfilled. never spent
so melancholy Christmae Eve You
will not wonder that I could not bear
to accept the invitations of friends
81. to be a looker-on at family re-
joicings so I stayed at home,
entirely alone. I found it utterly i'm
possible to get servant before New
Year and yesterday was even without
helper from outside. The porter's
wife put cold supper on the table for
me early in the afternoon, for she was
too busy later with Christmas prepa-
rations for her children. A smoky oil
lamp took the place of the Christmas
tree which you always adorned SO
charmingly and with such exquisite
taste every year. and there were none
of those pretty surprises by which you
supplied my wants and wishes almost
before was conscious of them. There
was nothing on the Christmas table
but my old fur coat, which Herr Pa.
laschke-softened by my entreaties
and assurances and perhaps also by
the spirit Of Christmastide-had a.
lowed me to take the preceding day.
1t was as cold as charity in the room,
for the fire had gone out and it was
beyond my skill to rekindle it, so
put on the fur coat, sat down by the
smoky lamp, and read over the letters
which wrote you during the time of
our engagement and which I had ta-
ken from their IL years resting place
to send to you today.

they have moved me. I cried like a

our marriage alone, but at the change

ness! Till now have thought that

we might continue to have interests In

such a voice does not speak also to
your soul. We cannot undo the past,
