1 FENIANISM RECONSIDERED

Sanders, had given a dinner on the eve of Washington's birthday to what amounted to a who's who of European revolutionists, including: Kossuth, Mazzini, Ledru-Rollin, Garibaldi, Orsini, Pulksy and Hertzen. All were at that time living in exile in the English capital. 3. John Newsinger, Fenianism in Mid-Victorian Britain (London, 1994) 1-3. 4. The Irishman, 16 Mar. 1867, 592. 5. T.W.

the Vatican archives available to him, and the position of the Church in relation to Fenianism in North America has not been seriously looked at since the 1940s. D'Arcy's use of North American Catholic archives is far from exhaustive.

Cullen had written to Abbot Bernard Smith in March 1852 that Ireland needed a party which would look after religious matters and the Church's inde• pendence, 'without selling themselves to the ministry to obtain some wretched temporal advantages'.

Steele, 'Cardinal Cullen and Irish Nationality', IHS, xix 1974-15, 256; Desmond Bowen, Paul Cullen and the Shaping of Modern Irish Catholicism (Dublin, 1983) 255-9.

Corish 'The Radical Face of Paul Cardinal Cullen', in Corish (ed.), Radicals, Rebels and Establishments (, 1985) 175. 23.

Irish People, 9 Apr. 1864, 312; 7 May 1864, 377; 14 May 1864, 392-3, where it was asserted that 'submission to certain Irish bishops in pol it- Notes 165

ical matters is equivalent to slavery', 4 June 1864,441; etc. 28. Such thinking was anathema to much contemporary Catholic outlook. In 1868 Cardinal Antonelli told Odo Russell that the Holy See could never sanction the principle of the separation of church and state. Norman, The Catholic Church and Irish Politics 5-6. 29. F.S.L. Lyons, Ireland since the Famine (revised edition London, 1973) 133. 30. As Cormac 0 Grada, Ireland Before and After the Famine (2nd edn, Manchester, 1993) 152 has pointed out that the period 1854-76 was on the whole one of relative prosperity and innovation in Irish agriculture. Most of the pre- gains in production and income improve• ment occurred in these decades. The years 1861-63 are therefore an exception to this gcneral trend. 31. Sir Robert Peel accused Cullen of attacking him because he had shown that clerical 'reports of a famine have been exaggerated'. The Tablet 23 Nov. 1861,742. 32.

Hence Stephens' comment that the Fenians tried to destroy Ribbonism wherever they encountered it. Cf. Desmond Ryan, The Fenian Chief (Dublin, 1967) 328; Michael Davitt, The Fall of Feudalism in Ireland (Shannon, 1970) 42 & 77; and John Newsinger, 'Old Chartists, Fenians and New Socialists', Eire-Ireland 17 1982, 23. 39. One of the aims of government policy was to prevent (iii) merging with (ii). I should like to thank Professor Colin Matthew of St Hugh's College, Oxford, for help in clarifying this point. 40.

More recently Comerford has stressed that his analysis of the social pastime reasons for engaging in Fenian activity applies to the mid-1860s only and that he is not making a general point about Fenian recruitment. Nonetheless he does empha• sise the need to relate levels of recruitment to wider social and economic factors. 'Comprehending the Fenians' Saothar 17 (1992) 52-6. 166 Notes

43. Quoted in Ryan, The Fenian Chief' 80. As Owen Dudley Edwards has observed, 'To make the Irish republican insurrectionary movement dependent on lower-class support was an ideal from which Stephens never deviated, and which gave ... the IRB ... the strength and endurance that made by comparison, seem insubstantial and frothy ...

Rossa's Recollections, 209; and Sub-Inspector Bernard Potter's report 4 June 1860 NLI Larcom Papers MS 7697. Potter indicates that Rossa's weapons were of a fairly rudimentary nature including pikes. He also mentions several associates of Rossa, including two women, Mary O'Brien, the wife of William O'Brien, and Lucy Davis as co-conspira• tors. 46. NLI Larcom Papers MS 7697. Precis of Information respecting [an] Association of Irishmen in the United States entertaining designs hostile to the British Government (June, 1861) f.1. This summary of Doyle's reports is indicative of the general concern by the early summer of 1861 for a deteriorating security situation. Inspector Doyle's early accounts from the US appear to be missing from the NAI. The summary in the Larcom papers is our only source for his dispatches between 22 February and 22 July 1859. 47.

The earliest government use of the term 'Fenian', apart from Doyle's reports, occurs in a copy of a letter in Larcom's hand dated 25 June 1861, and addressed 'Dear Sir'. He outlines the case that in the event of war with the US 'the Fenians will do their worst against us'. The Notes 167

89. The Tablet, 21 Dec 1861, 822. 90. This was a feature of the 'General Rules' of the Brotherhood which asserted as a 'General Maxim' that 'A member of the National Brotherhood of St. Patrick by learning the use of arms does not forgo any of his social rights.' A copy of the rules is preserved in the DDA Cullen Papers. 91. The Tablet, 15 Mar. 1862, 167 & 172. 92. Both Corish, Political Problems, 10, and Larkin, Consolidation of the Roman Catholic Church, 96-7, confuse the chronology of Cullen's denunciation of the Brotherhood. He mentions them first in the Lenten pastoral and then in a second towards the end of April. 93. The Tablet, 29 Mar. 1862,203. This was a fairly common theme in his correspondence. He told Fr Bruno in January 1862 that the head of the Brotherhood 'is a Mr Underwood a Presbyterian or Calvinist ... several other Protestants appear to be the principal managers of it ... in the head is a Mr Varion, a Unitarian'. DDA Cullen papers, Letterbook No.3. In the pastoral he mentioned, in an attempt to provoke horror among the faithful, that 'Men known to have been , and to have died without any religion, have been held up to our people as models for their imitation, and pilgrimages to their graves have been proposed, and honours decreed to their memory.' Ireland and the Holy See, 11. 94. DDA Cullen Papers, Underwood to Cullen, 10 Mar. 1862. 95. An undated letter but written after the appearance of the public letter. See DDA Cullen Papers 340/6/III/72. 96. DDA Cullen Papers, Resolutions adopted by the and Bishops of Ireland at a meeting held in Dublin on the 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th of May, 1862,3. 97. Rankin was also the General Secretary for Britain. 98. The Tablet, 22 Mar. 1862, 187 and 188. See also The Tablet, 15 Mar. 1862,172. 99. It is difficult to be absolutely precise about the exact strength of the organization and the degree of its infiltration in the police and military. A police estimate in December 1863 suggests that even at that stage there were 80000 Fenians in Ireland and a large support group in America. Captain J. Petrie to Sir Robert Peel, 16 Dec. 1863, NAI CSORP 1863/10783. Another contemporary source, the British Consul in Philadelphia, reported in November that to his knowledge there were 70 000 Fenians in Ireland; Lord Lyons to Lord Russell 20 Nov. 1863, copy in CSORP 1864/12151. William O'Brien, 'Was Fenianism ever Formidable?', The Contemporary Review 71 (1897) 681, gives the general recruitment figure indicated above. Kevin B. Nowlan, 'The Fenians at Home' in T. Desmond Williams (ed.), Secret Societies in Ireland (Dublin & New York, 1973) 96, estimates that by 1864 there were 80 000 Fenians in the country, and restricts himself to saying that there were 'several thousands in regiments'. Similarly Marcus Bourke, John O'Lemy: a Study in Irish Separatism (, 1967), 47 is convinced that by mid-1863 there were 80000 Fenians in Britain and Ireland and a further 15 000 in the British army. Comerford, Fenians in Context 124ff., is inclined to think that there is Notes 169

little evidence for more than 50000 Fenians in Ireland. Of the numbers of Fenians in the army he comes to the lame conclusion that it can only be said that there were 'hundreds or thousands'. For the latter judge• ment he draws on AJ. Semple, 'The Fenian Infiltration of thc British Army in Ireland, 1864-7', (M. Litt. thesis T.C.D .. 1971) 170. AM. Sullivan, a somewhat suspect source, The StOlY of Ireland (25th edn, Dublin, 1887) 570 was of the opinion that beforc 1864 Fenianism had madc little progress in Ireland. Detective Constable Thomas Talbot of Carrick-on-Siur expressed his fears to Dublin Castle towards the end of March 1865 that even that citadel was filled with Fenian spies in addi• tion to their presence in telegraph offices, banks, post offices and railways. Talbot to S.P. Crawford, Assistant Inspector-General of policc 24 Mar. 1865, NAI SPO Fenian Police Reports box 2, 133. As late as 1868 thc army commander in Ireland, Lord Strathnairn, complained that the extent of Fenian infiltration in these utilities was such that he was compclled to send important communications by special messen• gcr.
