10 Facal bhon Cheann-suidhe Tha An Gaidhealach toilichte a bhith a’ tilleadh gu Sruighlea airson a’ Mhdid Naiseanta, agus tha sinn uile a’ coimhead romhainn ri deagh Mhod. Chan eil teagamh nach bi seachdain againn a bhitheas air a sonrachadh le ionmhas de chanain ’s de cheol ’s de chairdeas, agus aig cnoch na seachdaine tha sinn an dochas gu seall a’ chomataidh ionadail air ais, ’s gur e an co-dhunadh gun tig iad gum bu mhath a b" fhiach e an- t-saothair. Rinn iad saothair mhor ann an bhith ag ullachadh, ’s ann a bhith a’ togail airgid, agus bu mhiann leam, as leth a‘ Chomuinn Ghaidhealaich, taing dhurachdach a thoirt dhaibhsan uile a dh’obraich cho cruaidh fon stiuireadh ealanta aig Alasdair MacAsgaill a tha na neach-gairme air a’ chomataidh. Ar taing cuideachd do Chomataidh Naiseanta a' Mhoid, fo stiuireadh na mnatha uasail Ann Draper, airson an obrach. Tha sinn a’ toirt taing do gach neach ’s do gach buidheann a thug cuideachadh dhuinn, le obair, le taic airgid’s le urrasachd. Beachdaicheamaid tacan beag air carson a bhitheas sinn cruinn ann an Sruighlea fad seachdain a’ Mhdid. Chan ann airson cur-seachad no airson fealla-dha. Bithidh sinn ann seach gu bheil sinn a’ creidsinn gu bheil e an comas a’ Mhdid rudeigin a dheanamh mar leasachadh air canan ’s air cedi na Gaidhlig. Ma sheallas sinn air Mddan a bh’ ann’s air gach ni a shruth bhuapa, chi sinn dearbhadh air ar creideas. Air sgath sin, ’s air sgath ar canain, deanamaid cinnteach gum bi am Mod seo a-reir nan durachdan a tha sinn a’ foillseachadh, le bhith a’ deanamh ar dichill airson ar canan a labhairt agus a sheasamh anns gach suidheachadh air am faigh sinn cothrom. Tha e cudthromach nach caill sinn ar misneachd. Mar a thuirt an seanfhacal, Bail a labhras, ach gniomh a dhearbhas. Agus’s ann an gniomhan a tha ar neart. ’S mur a bitheadh gniomhan saor-thoileach ar buill ’s ar cairdean, cha b’ urrainn Mod a bhith againn. Chan eil cus de thairbhe ann a bhith a’ labhairt a-mhain. Tha e furasda rud a chaineadh no a mholadh, ach’s e rud eile a tha ann nithean a chur an gniomh. Le bhith a’ tighinn chun a’ Mhdid, tha sibh uile a’ foillseachadh gu bheil rud air choreigin ann dhuibhse, ’s gu bheil a’ ghniomh airidh air ur n-aire. Tha sinn toilichte gu bheil uidhir a’ gabhail pairt’s a’ Mhdd, agus’s e sin a tha cudthromach. Agus chan ann a-mhain acasan a gheibh na duaisean a tha an t-urram ann an iomlanachd, ach aig gach neach a thig anns gach riochd gu Feis Naiseanta na Gaidhlig. Chan fhaod sinn a h-aicheadh. Faille oirbh uile gu Mod Shruighlea! Ddmhnall Iain Maclomhair (Ceann-suidhe: An Comunn Gaidhealach) n»
