Memorandum by [Stephen N Elrington], providing an eyewitness account of a Catholic Association dinner held on 3 June 1824 |
SCOPE & CONTENT: |
Memorandum by author identified as ‘SNE’ [Stephen N Elrington], providing an eyewitness account of a Catholic Association dinner given for [Daniel] O’Connell at the Corn Exchange Dublin on 3 June 1824, which was chaired by Pierce Butler. Butler anticipated that they ‘rally round the Reformers of England and make common cause with them’ and later proposed a toast to Rev Dr Murray [catholic archbishop of Dublin] and the catholic hierarchy of Ireland. O’Connell expressed support for crown and constitution but lamented that the greater part of the Irish population were ‘excluded altogether from the privileges of the Constitution’; urged Irish catholics to be assertive and ‘tell their Enemies - to tell Orangemen they felt their injuries’; drew comparisons between the principle of emancipation of catholics in ‘spite of Eldon or Liverpool’ with the emancipation of ‘Protestants in Spain in spite of Ferdinand and … in Greece in spite of the Sultan’ [Lord Eldon and Lord Liverpool]. Richard Shiel spoke on the issue of the insurrection and burial acts and emphasised the need for Parliament to conciliate Ireland. [Nicholas Purcell] O'Gorman, secretary to the Catholic Association, protested at the general classification of the Irish as lawless rebels and complained of the political power of the Orange party. John Lawless, advocated real parliamentary reform and claimed that the ‘Borough mongers of the House of Lords … rode over the Constitution’ thereby reducing the House of Commons to a ‘debating club’; expressed a wish for a free press in Ireland, especially in the north.
