One of the Fenian chiefs I met in Liverpool was General Halpin, who, on the night of the Rising, was in command of the district around Dublin. The first of the insurgents who reached Tallaght, the place of rendezvous on the night of the 5th of March, 1867, were received by a volley from the police and dispersed.
Dr. Halpin, assistant house surgeon of the City of Dublin Hospital, stated that the deceased had two lower ribs fractured and had sustained severe contusions of the right shoulder. The right side of the head had been injured in the fall. The injuries were not sufficient to have caused death in a normal person.
Halpin said he wished that the money might be transferred to the governor of whatever gaol he was to be imprisoned in, so that he might have the use of it to purchase necessaries should he require them. LORD CHIEF BARON If you desire to make any representation it must be through the government. PRISONER I don't wish to make any representation to the government on the subject.
And the landlord, one John Halpin, stood in his tavern doorway with his eyebrows raised, but no other sign of consternation, knowing well enough that all this could not affect his custom, and being one of the most toughly leather-dried little men whom I have ever seen, and his face so hardened into its final lines of experience, that it had no power of changing under new ones.
"We intend to visit her at once. She is an old acquaintance of mine, as I was in her when she laid the Atlantic cable in 1865. Does Captain Anderson still command her?" "No," answered the clerk, who seemed much interested in what Robin said. "She is now commanded by Captain Halpin."
I've made some curds you are so fond of them. If you don't praise the sweet cream Mrs. Halpin so kindly sent over this morning, when you come to eat these curds, I shall think I don't know what I shall think." The dinner proceeded, and, at length, the dessert, composed of curds and cream, was served. "Isn't that beautiful?" said Mrs. Bolton, as she poured some of the cream received from Mrs.
Just such a man was Mr. Bolton. "I've said it, and I'll do it!" That was one of his favourite expressions. And he repeated it to himself, now, to drive off the repentant feelings that came into his mind. At dinner-time, when Mr. Bolton sat down to the table, he found, placed just before him, a print of the golden butter sent to his wife on that very morning by Mrs. Halpin.
They were thoroughly scientific men, and always anxious to impart their knowledge to other Irishmen for the good of the Cause. I remember Halpin one night, at what was a kind of select social gathering, giving a number of us enthusiastic young men a lecture on the construction of fortifications and earthworks.
He sat in the British Parliament subsequently for Kilkenny and was an active member of the Dublin Corporation. GRATTAN, HENRY, JUN. Son of the great Grattan and member for Meath, 1831-52. An honest but weak politician. Third Earl. Colonial Secretary in the British Liberal Government, 1846 to 1852. HALPIN, THOMAS M. Secretary of the Confederation, and a Dublin working-man.
Of course it will be urged that a woman of much native delicacy could never have married so crass an animal as Grover Cleveland, have taken him fresh from the embraces of an old harlot like Widow Halpin; but these forget that he held the most exalted position of any man on earth, and his $50,000 per annum had been touched by the genie-wand jobbery forget that
