Canon o'HanIon's History Of the
United States Is a Splendid Rec
ord of What tho Irish Race
Has Done for America.

An event Of Importance to people of
Irish ancestry is the appearance OF the
American edition Of John Canon
O'lianlon's Irish American History of
the United States" from the press of
Murphy & Son, Now York City.
IL was prepared by the distinguished
author with much care and labor and
brings out with great fullness the part
the Irish have ,kcn in tic discovery
and upbujlding Of Amcricaa subject
sadly overlooked ny other historians.
Beginning with the early Irish ira
ditions regarding the American dis
coveries of ST. Brendan, each period
of our country's history is traced. The
author was we'll equipped for this task
as he spent many years in this coun
try as missionary priest.
1t was the ambition Of Canon O'Han-
lon to cmbody in permanent form Il
record of the achievements of the Irish
race in this republic not only for
Irishmcn in America but for members
Of the race in every part Of the world.
The first edition was published in Ire
land and the present edition is issued
in this country by arrangements with
the heirs -at-law of the celebrated
writer.
The work is gotten up in a manner
to bring joy to tho heart of every book
loving Celt. Each page is ornamcntcd
with border Of irish tracing printed
in a delicate shade of emerald green
after the manner Of book making
adopted by the carly Irish monks.
| 1t is printed in two large volumes on
the best quality Of book paper and is
| Handsomely bound in buckram.
The work has an added interest from,
the fact that it is the last writing ot
the author Of the Lives of the Irisf
Saints and is splendid monumcn,
to the genius. erudition, extensive
knowledge and literary skill of the il
lustrious Irishman.
There is no doubt this history will
have a large and satisfactory circula
ton in this country not only anon,
i Irish Americans but among lovers o

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1913-06-26

Though but one poor bid was re-
ceived last night on the 100000 wa
ter bonds, there is some likelihood
yet that favorable bid will be re-
ceived for Recorder Fitz Gerald this
morning received another bid which
had been delayed in transit and was
notified that still another belated one
would arrive this evening.
The bid last evening was from the
Nj. w. Halsey Co., of Chicago. and
was for 30 cents on the dollar and
contained the provision that not more
than $4,000 month would be avail
able. No action has been taken but
II is certain that the terms of the bid
make It unacceptable.
The bid received this morning was
from Farson & Son of Chicago, the
same company that made a previous
bid 1t has not yet been opened. The
other tardy bid, It Is rumored, is a
much better one than the other two
and 1t is not impossible that the bonds
will be sold at this time.
Many Bid on Bridge.
There was lively bidding on the Star
