Mliny an nppoill has been woficd over the rlconll from

them ‘. these noblc Exiles, who have never yet turned
coldly tlwny when the wail of suffering i-eacliod them
from dawn-trodden Ireland. Year after year, and
month nfter month have their hearts been torn by the
cry of agony from the stricken laud. And promptly

The address from our countrymen in Lcliieago suffi-

are to have a great Irish National Fair in the Flu‘
