"To the pious, glorious, and immortal memory of William of Orange, who gave us an open Bible, and delivered us from Popery brass money, and wooden shoes. We put them up on the first of July and fly them till the twelfth, when we walk in procession through Monaghan." "An Orangeman, and a black Protestant, I fear?" He laughed merrily, and said he was proud and thankful to be both.
The place is full of them going to the woods, besides the toughs at the mills and in the taverns. They're not psalm-singing, and they don't keep the Ten Commandments, but they're savagely fanatical, and " "And there's the funeral of an Orangeman tomorrow. The Orange Lodge attends in regalia." Ingolby started and looked at the paper again.
He did do so, but found, alas! that his trade had perished in the meanwhile or forced itself into other channels. The result was that Teddy Mooney became very bitter in spirit, and was for a while an Orangeman, and almost a Protestant. The evil things that had been done to him were terrible to his spirit.
Like most of the Ulstermen I have met, he has a firm faith, not only in the power of the Protestant North to protect itself, but in its determination to protect itself against the consequences which the northern Protestants believe must inevitably follow any attempt to establish an Irish nationality. Dr. Hanna is neither an Orangeman nor a Tory.
If they had been even drawn up as a solemn declaration, asserting on the part of the newly made member, a conviction that strict observance of their precepts was an indispensable and necessary part of his obligations as an Orangeman, they might have been productive of good effect, and raised the practices of the institution from many of the low and gross atrocities which disgraced it.
Another uniform that attracted much, though not so favorable, attention was that of the Third New Jersey Cavalry, or First New Jersey Hussars, as they preferred to call themselves. The designer of the uniform must have had an interest in a curcuma plantation, or else he was a fanatical Orangeman. Each uniform would furnish occasion enough for a dozen New York riots on the 12th of July.
Yes, and I tell you moreover, that I have cured him and with a blessing shall cure him better still, if that is any consolation to you. From being a purple Orangeman, I have him now hard at work every day at his Padderheen Partha. But I now caution you not to unsettle the religious principles of Darby O'Drive, the bailiff." "Why, sir, the man has no religious opinion, nor ever had; thanks to Mr.
In this world, however, part of the beautiful poise of things depends upon the fact that whenever you have an exaggerated fanatic of any sort, his exact opposite at once springs up to neutralise him. You have a Mameluke: up jumps a Crusader. You have a Fenian: up jumps an Orangeman. Every force has its recoil.
Saw no old people about and found that almost the recollection of Father Peter Smith, the blessed priest who wrought miracles, had faded away from the place, also that of his friend the loyal Orangeman who always got Orange as a prefix to his name. The police in these midland counties are not so alert and vigilant, like people in an enemy's country, as they are in the west.
To a house thinned by the endless rhodomontade of a dull Orangeman with a style of elocution to which the House is unaccustomed, and which has almost every fault delivery could have the speech of Sir John Rigby, the Solicitor-General, was one of the finest and weightiest utterances delivered on the Bill.
