Excerpt from The Legacy of Past Years: A Study of Irish History MY endeavour in the following pages is to delineate the 1ncidents in Irish history which, if studied in an impartial, candid, and critical Spirit, give, as it seems to me, an answer to the perennial question, Why is it that the Realm is no richer for Ireland?
