When the sym- bol of cross first appeared in Rome all men of that empire joined to destroy the religion of Christ, Men had to prac- | tice their religion of Christ in the cata- gombs of Rome. But it was not so in Ireland, Christianity was openly pro- fessed wnere, while In other countries blood was shed in torrents. In Ireland | the people welcomed 8t. Patriek and he found them lovers of truth and upright- ness He found a welcome for truth wherever he went in that land. Once Taught the World. it is bard to imagine that unhappy Ire- land once jaught the entire world. When the Goth ‘and Baxon were devastating | wide areas of the countries of Europe, when the Hun and the Finn were engaged in the work of destruction, Ireland was w icoming and training the servants of hrist and sending them forth to spread the truth and light of the true religion. “That planting has not been uprooted by centuries of persecution. In every part of the world the faith and fidelity of St, Patrick have been spread by the 1rish| race. Rich harvests and new fieids have been won to'Christ by this wonderful peo- ple_of Ireland ““The_Irish people present a unique spec-1 tacle. “They do not own their land, but| by divine right they are the possessors of Jreland and ever will be.

" The speaker then dwelt upon the his- | tory of Ireland and told of the manner | in which Henry the Eighth, Bdward the Sixth, Elizabeth and Cromwell had acted toward the Irish nation, and continuing said: | Remained Steadfast. | rulers of England determined to | stamp cut the Catholic religlon in Ire- | land, and for thelr religious belief num- erous men and women were put to the | rack and killed on the scaffoid. Their | property was confiscated and desolation spread far and wide. Elizabeth of Eng- land said that she would conquer the irish people, yat, at the end of her fort years' reign, ‘here could not be fou sixty of the natives of Ireland who had become Protestants. “James the Jirst ordered the Catholi priests to leave Ireland, and mass w forbidden. Vet Cromwell's devastation of ‘Ireland was the worst fate that be- | fell that country. Those who seek to ! place the lavrel on his brow know not what they do. H acts were blood- thirsty, and terrible. ¢ sent 20,000 fanat- cs to Ireland and acted like Atilla. He claimed to be a God-fearing man, and his Puritans steadily read the Bible; yet m committed awful murders " in the name of religion and peopie were massacred on all sides, Men, women and children were slaughtéred by his orders, and he stands condemned by his own words, He deserves only the condemna- tion of every Christidn and of all honest men. Cromwell was a cruel tyrant, and he dled a traltor to justice, a despot to freedom and a dishonor to the Christian name, » here else in Europe can_be found more virtues than In Ireland. Ireland is poor, and the poor are rarely envied. Their only possession is in character, and this Ireland possesses to a degree. She has faults, but they are malnly the out- come of her miseries and not of her own making. “She possesses many domestic virtues, a high spirit of charity, and her good rature, wit, courage and truth are the products of her faith, molded by grace. “As th has preserved the Irish na- tional sentiment, so it will effect the freedom of Ireland. That falth sustained O'Connell when he won emancipation for Ireland in 1829, Burdens Are Being Lifted. “The burdens of Ireland are gradually being lifted. She is galning greater free- dom and prosperity 1s being Introduced into the land. She awalts the act of justics that must come—home rule—and it will come by moral means. The moral Judgment of the world will force Eng- land 1o allow Ircland the right to gov- 1 herself, At this celebration it {s natural to.in- dulge In sweet memories, After so sore a triul we hope that God will reward the Irish pation and that she will be free because she has proven herself worthy. ‘It s well to keep up our Gaelic cus- toms awalting that time, but our present duty is to be loyal to God, to our faith and to this country that has always shown herself to be a friend to Ireland. Our fathers were the sturdy ploneers of A ca, and they left to us a great and 1’ heritage. “Loyalty to God, loyalty to our falth and loyalty to our country form our duty and our high privilege.
