NOTES

1 Hardinge, Life of Carnarvon, III, p. 151.

2 The Conservative Government could not dissolve Parliament till the autumn, because they had to wait for the new register including the voters enfranchised by the Act of 1884.

2 Salisbury tried to counteract this impression by a speech in the Lords on July 21 in which he gave Spencer warm praise for his “high and manly courage.”

1 To complete the Maamtrasna story it should be added that Carnarvon left the convicted men in prison and that the last survivor was released in 1903. His wife made a personal appeal to Queen Alexandra when she and the King visited Ireland and the Government released her husband. Healy says that the Irish M.P.s had never pressed his case because it was noticed that he did not go to confession when the priest visited the jail and this was taken as an admission of guilt.

3 By an extraordinary blunder Balfour stated at Stockport on July 15, 1893, that Salisbury had not been consulted about the interview. Hardinge, op. cit, Vol. Ill, p. 248.
