II Ireland
(9) Charlemont treachery

Hardy p. 272 In another place will be have been seen the Resolution
passed by the Convention in favour of Parliamentary Reform. After
that doubtless by persuasion of Lord Charlemont and his friends
came an a dutiful Address to the King with professions of duty in general composed of the usual vague generalities
terms, disclaiming "spirit of innovation" professing "sober and
"laudable desire to "uphold . . "confirm . . "perpetual" whatsoever
required to be applied conjoined and perpetuated. In conclusion
the Noble President p.272 moved that no other business should be proceeded
"upon and the Convention finally adjourned."

Hardy p. 271 As to the Convention Over and over again we have the assurance of
the both of the biographer and of the hero himself, that it was
for no other purpose than the preventing it from doing any thing
that the hero accepted the consented or rather sought to be at the head of it
Why then seek determine to betray the sought for confidence? Because
says the biographer "the assembly . . . carried with it the seeds
"of civil confusion." A Civil confusion why whence so sure of it
for the future? Even from the uninterrupted times of uncoupled
order which for an uninterrupted course of more than
four years and upwards had according to his one declaration
manifested itself: for that was the evidence which the
case had furnished — and that evidence the only evidence.
Civil Confusion whatever he means by it for he takes care not none having grounds to make out such as his take
to be too too explicit — civil confusion so assured from an
unarmed and silent assembly, when from armed assemblies
by hundreds nothing of the kind had in all that time
been exemplified!
