Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sermons and Addresses, Vol. 7: Of His Eminence William Cardinal O'connell, Archbishop of Boston
IN reviewing the phenomenal growth of sentiment in favor of Ireland's freedom during the last six months, the friends of Erin may well say the impossible has hap pened. When, just six months ago to - night, the great meeting in Madison Square took up again the cause of Erin, after a silence that seemed ominous, no one present there could possibly imagine that knowledge of and sympathy for Erin's cause would progress to such a wonderful degree as to-day they have almost miraculously attained. Undoubtedly, America to-day knows and understands the story of Ireland's wrongs, and sympathizes with her rights, as never before. The American is a true idealist. That, the great war has proven. But he is not Don Quixote; he must first understand what the cause is, and where the wrongs are. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
