Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Letter to the Right Honourable Lord North, on His Propositions in Favour of Ireland
Your Lordfhip dwells on the addrefs of our parliament being a petition for indul gence, not a demand of rights. My Lord, I conceive thatladdrefs was to the king OF ireland, without whofe approbation: our laws cannot be altered or enlarged. If your Lordfhip' eonceives that it was a fupplica tion to the parliament of great-britain, I apprehend you are When the parliament of Ireland addreffed their King, and 'told him. That nothing but a. Free trade could fave their country, they could not, I am perfuaded they did not, forget why Ireland had not a Free Trade; they could not forget that Ireland was bound by Britith acts of.parliame'nt. But, my Lord; fhmzld it even be poffible that our parliament could forget the Great qwfiiofi*qe, -right, it. Cannot be forgot by the people; they know it, and will rernema her it. As one of that people, I deem it. Eflerfi-ial to freedom, and think myfelf jmf tified as a mah entitled to be free. To pubs-a licly argue for my own and my country.
