During The First Two Months Of The Year 1844, The Greatest Possible
Excitement Existed In Dublin Respecting The State Trials, In Which
Mr O'Connell, [1] His Son, The Editors Of Three Different Repeal
Newspapers, Tom Steele, The Rev. Mr Tierney--A Priest Who Had Taken
A Somewhat Prominent Part In The Repeal Movement--And Mr Ray, The
Secretary To The Repeal Association, Were Indicted For Conspiracy.
Those Who Only Read Of The Proceedings In Papers, Which Gave Them As
A Mere Portion Of The News Of The Day, Or Learned What Was Going On
In Dublin By Chance Conversation, Can Have No Idea Of The Absorbing
Interest Which The Whole Affair Created In Ireland, But More Especially
In The Metropolis. Every One Felt Strongly, On One Side Or On The
Other. Every One Had Brought The Matter Home To His Own Bosom, And
Looked To The Result Of The Trial With Individual Interest And
Suspense.
