the Crown Prince Olaf trained in Eng

Thousands of Irish Nationalis:s
served terms of Imprisonment for pa
ticipation in the fight for legislative
Independence from Great Britain.
Hundreds were eXilcd, many Of them
proceeding to the United States.
The agitation sometimes took on
the aspect of extreme violence, as
when Lord Frederick Cavendish, the
chief secretary for Ireland and T. II.
Burke, permanent secretary. were as
sassinated by "invinciblcs" May q,
1852, in Phoenix Park Dublin.
The first effort of the British gov
eminent to meet the demand for Irish
home rule was made by William Ewart
Gladstone when premier in 1856. The
bill was rejected after it's introduction
had brought about great split in the
liberal party, which caused the seces-
sions of Joseph Chamberlain anF other
leading liberals, who since ON Irish
questions have acted with the con-
scrNative party.
