What reading level is History of Ireland From the Earliest Times to the Present Day volume 5 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
333-4. 2 Grattaris Life, v. 40-41.
POSITION OF CORNWALLIS 93 officers. In Sligo and Antrim public meetings summoned to petition against the Union were proclaimed as illegal. In the King's County a similar public meeting to be held in the Court- house was stopped by the High Sheriff at the head of the military, and with two six-pounder guns turned on the Court- house door. 1 County meetings in Kildare and the Queen's County were also stopped. And a case is mentioned where a gentleman who address...ed a letter against the Union to a Kerry newspaper was taken up as a disloyal man and lodged as prisoner in Kilmainham Jail.
All these methods of influencing public opinion Castlereagh was quite willing to employ, and to have his hands free for such work he prorogued the Parliament in June. But Cornwallis was a more honourable man, convinced indeed that the Union was a good thing, and that Parliament and people ought to be persuaded into it, but shrinking from the employ- ment of dishonourable means to obtain votes or influence opinion.
