III Experience
Ireland
2 §.2. Democratic ascendency established
5
Officers chosen by
privates — mostly men
of property: many of
rank: including the
sole Duke and Charlemont,
most influential W and
popular Whig.
5 The Officers were chosen by the privates: for the
most part they were men of considerable property and among
them were men of the highest rank in the nation and
in particular the Duke of Leinster, sole Duke and premier
Peer, and the Earl of Charlemont one of the richest and regarded as the
most accomplished man in the nation at that time, and
the man of greatest influence considered as the head and leader of among the Whigs.

At the first, objects
of the association,
defence of against invasion,
and improvement
in Constitutional
and Commercial law
emancipation of Irish
trade and parliamentary
power from
British oppression
The first the only object
at first universally
contemplated: but as
the association strengthened,
the other
6. The association had Considered in its general
mass the Association had further from the first two
very distinct objects: 1 the contributing to the defence
of the country against an eventually apprehended enemy
against an app invasion apprehended at the
hands of a foreign enemy, and the obtaining from the
fears of the British Government an improvement in the
state of the Constitutional 2 and Commercial 1 branches of
the law: freedom of trade from the restraints imposed
upon it by the ce or by the influence of the British
Parliament and for the supposed exclusive benefit of Great Britain
to the prejudice of the interests of Ireland, and f emancipation
from the subjection in which the legislative
and judicial authority of the two Houses of Parliament
in Ireland, and the highest judicial authority in that
Kingdom were held by the Monarch in conjunction
with the two Houses of Parliament in England
The first object would at the outset be in the minds of some the
only one contemplated; and in the minds of all the only one
avowed: but as the association encreased in strength it the second became
more and more extensively, and at length universally avowed.
