Ireland (53°30?N 7°38?W; Irish: Éire; Ulster Scots: Airlann) is the third largest island in Europe. It lies to the northwest of Continental Europe with the island of Great Britain lying to the east. It is divided into the Republic of Ireland, a sovereign state occupying five-sixths of the island, and Northern Ireland, a part of the United Kingdom, occupying the northeastern sixth of the island. The name 'Ireland' derives from the name Ériu (in modern Irish, Éire) with the addition of the Germanic word 'land'. |

What did I have, said the fine old woman What did I have, this proud old woman did say I had four green fields, each one was a jewel But strangers came and tried to take them from me I had fine strong sons, who fought to save my jewels They fought and they died, and that was my grief said she Long time ago, said the fine old woman Long time ago, this proud old woman did say There was war and death, plundering and pillage My children starved, by mountain, valley and sea And their wailing cries, they shook the very heavens My four green fields ran red with their blood, said she What have I now, said the fine old woman What have I now, this proud old woman did say I have four green fields, one of them's in bondage In stranger's hands, that tried to take it from me But my sons had sons, as brave as were their fathers My fourth green field will bloom once again said she |

Excerpt from THE IRISH RACE in AMERICA.
..... took any part in the insurrection, marched with the Steelmen into the town and demanded the prisoner from the military guard, the officers of which were fortunately persuaded by a respectable physician to his liberation in order to prevent the ruinous consequences of a dreadful battle. The association of the Steelmen extended into the neighboring counties, augmented by distressed or discontented peasantry, who were not affected immediately by the original grievance. By the exertions of the military, some were taken and tried at Carrickfergus. As they were acquitted from the supposed partiality of the witnesses and jury an Act of Parliament was passed in March, 1772, ordering their trials to be held in counties different from those in which their offences were committed. Some, in consequence, were carried to Dublin, but were there, from prejudices entertained against a law so unconstitutional, acquitted. In the December of 1773, during the administration of Earl Harcourt, the obnoxious act was repealed. From a sense of the evil consequences of disorders, insurgents tried in their respective counties were now condemned and executed. The insurrection was totally quelled, but its effects were long baneful. So great and wide was the discontent that many thousands emigrated from those parts of Ulster to the American settlements, where they soon appeared in arms against the British Government, and contributed powerfully by their zeal and valor to the separation of the American colonies from the Empire of Great Britain." Several other writers give a similar account of this "land war," its causes and consequences.* Marmion, speaking of says: "The effects of this agrarian insurrection, which extended to the adjoining counties (from Antrim), seriously affected the welfare of the province of Ulster and was instrumental in extending liberty to the whole human race. Thousands of men, driven from their holdings, dissatisfied with the country, and expressing the deepest resentment against the Irish landlords, emigrated to America. Arriving there at a critical moment and actuated by their wrongs, they joined the armies of Washington, then contending for Independence, and contributed by their numbers as well as by their courage and conduct to separate the United States from the British Crown. The emigration to America during the years 1771, 1772 and 1773, from the north of Ire- land exceeded all former precedent. The emigrants were chiefly farmers and manufacturers who, by converting their property into specie, which they took with them abroad, it was calculated deprived Ulster of one-fourth of its circulating medium, which then consisted altogether of specie, and also * Taylor says: "The rapacity of the agent of an absentee nobleman, the Marquis of Donegal, produced a fierce «granan insurrection in the county of Antrim, which soon extended over the greater part of Ulster. The insurgents named themselves Hearts of Steel, to show the firmness of their resolution. They determined not to pay the extravagant rents and fines demanded by the landlords and their agents, and to destroy the cattle and houses of any tenants who should take the land 'over their heads.' My the exertions of the military, several of the Steel-men were arrested and brought to trial at Carrickfergus; but they were acquitted, from the supposed partiality of the witnesses and the juries. The Irish aristocracy, enraged at being disappointed of the expected vengeance on their revolted vassals, passed a law, that trials for insurrectionary offences should be held in counties different from those in which the crimes had been committed. Some of the insurgents were, in consequence, brought to trial in Dublin; but the juries, disgusted at such an arbitrary and unconstitutional proceeding, acquitted the prisoners without hesitation. This infamous bw was repealed during the administration of Lord Harcourt, and the juries in the disturbed districts were at the same time induced to do their duty with firmness. After several of the insurgents had been convicted and executed, the disturbances wereit, suppressed; but an immense number of the Ulster Protestants sought refuge from the rapacity of their landlords in the wilds of America."— History of Ireland, Harpers, New York. |
