Excerpt from Brigadier-General Thomas Francis Meagher: His Political and Military Career, With Selections From His Speeches and Writings Why the life of Thomas Francis Meagher should be written requires no explanation. The career of a man who has made so interesting a part of the history of twenty remarkable years, who participated prominently in two revolu tionary struggles - a bloodless one in the Old World, and a sanguinary one in the N ew - whose eloquence has thrilled two peoples by a fervor not common to the orators of our time, but almost peculiar to himself, and by a redundan cy of classic beauty, -both in thought and lan guage, which distinguished his oratorical efforts from those of any contemporary, the career of such a man should not be left to the mere mem ory of his words and works.
