Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the Anti-Maynooth Conference of 1845: With an Historical Introduction, and an Appendix Central Anti-Maynooth Committee to undertake the editing of the subsequent Report, and to draw up an Historical Introduction, comprising a survey of the recent struggle, I entered upon that work with very little idea of the time and toil that it would require. The Report of the Conference itself was taken in Short-hand by Mr. H. Findon, that of the Meeting in Exeter Hall, on May 1st, by Mr. Merrett; and this part of the work will, I trust, be found satisfactory to the Reader: nothing is, I hope, omitted which could be deemed important; nothing retained which, in due consideration to the various speakers, it was not desirable to retain. But, on this subject, more need not be said than will be found in the Introduction, pp. xciii. xciv.; and in the few remarks at the commencement of the Appendix. But with regard to the Historical Introduction, I am by no means satisfied. To make it what I could have wished it to be, would have required the additional labour of three or four months: but I was limited as to time; and my time was only partially at my own disposal. I trust, however, that every important document is preserved, and inserted in its place. Some things may have escaped me, though I was a very regular labourer, from first to last, both in the Central Committee and in the Executive Committee; and from other members of the Committee I have received kind assistance and very useful hints.
