III Experience
II Ireland
Grattan's Speech
Plowden Vol. II Part i. p.459 The Society of limited Irishmen
of Dublin had amongst other publications upon the subject
of parliamentary reform strongly inculcated the necessity of
annual parliaments and universal suffrage; which Mr Grattan,
in his speech upon Mr Ponsonby's bill, most severely
reprobated and exposed to derision and scorn.

"minority in parliament
p.457. line 6
P.156 It appears from an address of this Society to the people
of Ireland, which was published as widely as possible,
what their avowed sentiments were of the Gentlemen
of the opposition, and particularly of Mr Grattan,
the leader of that party. Hitherto the United Irishmen
were bounden by no secret oath, nor any criminal
or illegal tie. Their address was published ten days
after the debate on the introduction of Mr Ponsonby's
bill of reform. They first gave a specimen of their
own doctrines upon the subject, they then very freely
express their opinions of Mr. Grattan, and the minority
in Pparliament.
