If every young man in Ireland could only realise the spirit of '82 his heart wonld burn to emulate the Yalunteers. and he wanld not be content (11 he could shoulder his rifie and take his pl :lce in the ranks of th ei.r u:lmesakes of to-day.

And, I am sure, Ihe ladies of to.day would like to imitate their predecessors of '82 who tllfonged to th e reviews " insp· ring the patriots with th~ chivalry of their nature."

Those patriotic ladi es " who made and ornamented flags and colours, embroidered uniforms with the'r own hands, contributed th eir trj:Jkets .and jewels to purcha se ornaments, and in. fu98d th eir own enthusiasm into the h e art~ of all."
