THE PARNELLITES
ON
ENGLAND AND THE ENGLISH
These are Extracts from what the Parnellites said in former days. They have never withdrawn, or retracted, these statements. Did they mean what they said, or did they not? If they did not mean it, let them say so. But if they did not mean what they said then, how can we be asked to believe what they say now?
Mr. WM. REDMOND, M.P.
[At Nurney, Co. Kildare.]
"Mr. Parnell exhibited no intolerance of men who might be anxious ultimately to liberate Ireland by the sword. … At a number of meetings which had lately been held throughout the country, cheers had been given for the Mahdi (another cheer for the Mahdi); and he believed that nothing which had occurred for years so much brought home to the English people the bitter fact, and the great truth, that Ireland regarded England as her enemy, and rejoiced at her misfortunes."— United Ireland, February 21st, 1885.
