IGNATIUS| Large Throng Hears Gaelic Leader Discourse on Old Writings of the Island The Irish literature of the last three centuries was the subject of a discourse | by Dr. Douglas Hyde yesterday afternoon at St. Ignatius College Hall. The cele- | brated lecturer spoke at the request of the alumni of the college and a large au- dience greeted him, After an overture selection from “Robin I"Hood" by the college orchestra under the direction of the Rev. Father Allen, the | Rev. John Frieden introduced Frank J. Sullivan as chairman of the day. In a short speech Mr. Sullivan introduced the only other speaker besides Dr. Hyde, Peter F. Dunne. Mr. Dunne spoke of the work of the doctor in bringing about the revival of the Irish tongue, not only In Ireland, but in every portion of the clvilized world where the Irlshman is found. He further spoke of the effect of the movement of the Gaelic League in reviving the Irish manufactories and commerce and spoke of the political development of the island In which the green will be Intertwined with the Orange and Catholie and Pro- testant meet on the common ground of national patriotism. Dr. Douglas Hyde was then introduced and cordially received by the gathering made up in the most part of women and girls. He spoke earnestly but briefly at the opening of his address on the work of the Gaelic League, and then plunged into the subject of Irish literature. Beginning, as usual, with the Gaelic—or Irish, as Dr. Hyde insists that it be called—he shortly adverted to the English and began the explanation of the beau- ties of a literature produced at a period when it is generally supposed the Irish were only producing rags and potatoes. Dr. Hyde sald that in the spread of Irish among the people of Ireland is seen | the slow returning footsteps of a nation | from the brink of destruction. He sald | that the Irish of the present day are tak- | ing up the thread of a national language that has been badly raveled and that | the thread of a national language would lead to the woof of a national existence. In speaking of the remains of the Irish literature Dr. Hyde said that the books and records of Gaelic civilization were | scattered far and wide. and that con- stantly volumes in old Irish were turning up in the most unexpected places. While geographically insular, the Irish nation is pre-eminently a continental or universal people, more so even than the English. In support of this the speaker suid that when the Irish were driven from their homes they took refuge in Spain and France, parts of which to this day, the speaker maintained, the almost Irish as the Emerald Isle itself. Turning from literature to poetry Dr. Hyde cited many examples of the works of the anclent Irish bards and gave beau- tiful excerpts in a full melodious voice that charmed his audience and brought their applause. In conclusion he appealed tc Irishmen of all parts of the world to lay aside thelr prejudices and fight shoul der to shoulder in spreading the spirit of restored nationality that is pervading the hearts and minds of the true sons of Erin. —_——————————— MOTHERS ASK ABOUT ABSENT SONS.— Chief Dinan received a letter vesterday from Mrs. C.
