THREE KINDS OF GENTLEMEN
Somewhat Peculiar Distinctions That
Are Made by sirhatltan4s Of the
Emerald Island. ~.

Ireland is the only country in which
IT has ever been customary to classify
gentlemen US Of three distinct kinds Of
species. ~ 8 j.
Probably the distinctions are still
recognized to some extent in the EN-
eraid isle. but two centuries ago. and
even much later, they were defined
respectively as (one) the "half-mount-
ed" (two) the gentleman every inch
OF him' and (three) the gentleman to
the backbone" -;
The first class consisted of descend
ants Of Cromwells soldiers. who. If
they could ride well, were called
buckskin Breeches," or "Squireens."
The second class was composed of
descendants of old families whose es-
tates had been forfeited to the crown
(for rebellion or other rensons), and
who had been compelled to lower them
selves by working for living, in trade
or the professions.
The third class-the gentlemen to
the backbone''-comprised the old
stock, or folks who lived on the ancient
family estates and the labor Of the
peasantry pertaining to their. domains.
