RIGHTS tusuvm TO THE IRISH RACE IN EVERY LAND Ireland: "All thy life has been a symbol; we can ~n1y read a part: God will flood thee yet with sunshine for the woes that drench thy heart." JOHN BoYI.E O'R.J.:II.LY. PREFACE We had at first intended that this should be a book without a preface, and indeed it needs none, for it speaks in no uncer- tain tones for itself; but on reconsideration we decided that it would be more seemly to give a short explanation of our aim, our motives, and our methods. As a result of innumerable inquiries which have come to us during our experience as educators, we have been forced to the conclusion that the performances of the Irish race in many fields of endeavor are entirely unknown to most people, and that even to the elect they are not nearly so well known as they deserve to be. Hence there came to us the thought of placing on record, in an accessible, comprehensive, and permanent form, an outline of the whole range of Irish achievement dur- ing the last two thousand years. In undertaking this task we had a twofold motive. In the first place, we wished to give to people of Irish birth or descent substantial reason for that pride of race which we know is in them, by placing in their hands an authoritative and unassailable array of facts as telling as any nation in the world can show. Our second motive was that henceforward he who seeks to ignore or belittle the part taken by men and women of Irish birth or blood in promoting the spread of re- ligion, civilization, education, culture, and freedom sftould sin, not in ignorance, but against the light, and that from a thousand quarters at once champions armed with the panoply of knowledge should be able to spring to his confutation. To carry out in a satisfactory manner over a field so im- mense our lawfully ambitious aim was, as we realized at the outset, not possible to any two men who are primarily engaged, as we are, in other work of an exacting nature. Therefo~ to render feasible the execution of our undertaking, we de- cided to invite the collaboration of many scholars and spe- cialists, each of whom could, out of the fullness of informa- tion, speak with authority on some particular phase of the general subject. We are glad to say that the en'linent writers vi PREfACE to whom we addressed ourselves answered with promptitude and alacrity to our call, and have supplied us with such a body of material as to enable us to bring out a book that is abso- lutely unique. From each contributor we asked nothing but a plain verifia- ble statement of facts, and that, we think, is exactly what they have given us, for, while we do not make ourselves personally responsible for everything set down in the following pages, we believe that what stands written therein bears every mark of careful research and of absolute reliability. Although on many of our subjects little more remains to be said than what appears in the text, yet the treatment on the whole does not claim to be exhaustive, and therefore each writer has, at our request, appended to his contribution a short and carefully selected bibliography, so that those who are in- terested may have a guide for further reading. For our part, we consider these lists of works of reference to be a highly useful feature. It is a glorious thing for us, who are proud, one of us of his Irish descent and the other of his Irish birth, to think that the sons and daughters of mother Erin have so conspicuously dis- tinguished themselves in such varied spheres of activity in every. age. and in so many lands, and that we were privileged to make public the record of their achievements in a form never before attempted. We have other works in contemplation, and some actually in preparation, which will go far to strengthen the claims put forward in this book. In the meantime, we trust that the reception accorded to it will be such as to encourage us to persevere in making still better known the Glories of Ireland. Jos~PHDuNN P. J.

HE history of Ireland remains to be written, for the pur- T pose of Irishmen remains yet to be achieved. The struggle for national realization, begun so many cen- turies ago, is not ended; and if the long story offers a so fre- quent record of failure, it offers a continuous appeal to tpe highest motives and a constant exhibition of a most pathetic patriotism linked with the sternest courage. Irish wars, throughout all time, have been only against one enemy, the invader, and, ending so often in material disaster, they have conferred always a moral gain. Their memory up- lifts the Irish heart; for no nation, no people, can reproach Ireland with having wronged .them. When, at the dawn of the Christian era, we first hear of Ireland from external sources, we learn of it as an island har- boring free men, whose indomitable love of freedom was hate- ful to the spirit of imperial exploitation. Agricola's advice to the empire-builders of his day was that Rome should "war down and take possession of Ireland, so that freedom might be put out of sight." It was to meet this challenge of despotism that the Scotic clans of Alba turned to their motherland for help, and the sea was "white with the hurrying oars" of the men of Erin ~eding to the call of their Highland kinsmen, threatened with imperial servitude. The first external record we possess thus makes it clear that when the early Irish went forth to carry war abroad, it was not to impose their yoke on other peoples, or to found an empire, but to battle against the Empire of the World in the threatened cause they held so dear at home. In this early Roman reference to Ireland we get the key- note to all later Irish history-a warring down on the one hand, so that freedom might be put out of sight; an eternal resistance, on the other, so that it might be upheld.

  • Thomas Peel Dunhill, the Forgotten Man of Thyroid Surgery
    THOMAS PEEL DUNHILL, THE FORGOTTEN MAN OF THYROID SURGERY by I. D. A. VELLAR* THE MODERN surgeon approaches the surgery of thyrotoxicosis with confidence, the confidence derived from the excellence of modem anaesthesia, the euthyroid state of the patient and the knowledge that blood transfusion, antibiotics and the specific management of the occasional crisis are always available to extricate the patient from any of these complications. Though full of confidence in his own and others' abilities, he usually matches this by a profound ignorance of the contribution of the thyroid pioneers whose activities at the turn of the century helped to lay the foundation for the safe management of the thyrotoxic. One of these pioneers was an Australian, Thomas Peel Dunhill (fig. 1), whose contributions to thyroid surgery have been almost entirely forgotten. To understand fully the role of Dunhill, it is important to look at the position of thyroid surgery and in particular, the surgery of toxic goitre at the turn of the nineteenth century and in the first two decades of the twentieth century. It will then be possible to appreciate more fully the achievements of these thyroid pioneers, who enabled the mortality of the surgery of toxic goitre to be reduced from 30-50 per cent (it was 30 per cent at St. Thomas's Hospital, London, as recently as 1910) to a minute fraction of one per cent today. The early history of the surgery of the thyroid gland may be traced in Halsted's painstaking compilations included in his article. 'The operative story of goitre- the author's operation' in the Johns Hopkins Hospital Reports, 1920.1 However, the recognition of goitre goes back many thousands of years.

IVRLA1 RESEARCH REPORT: THE DUBLIN JOURNAL OF MEDICAL AND CHEMICAL SCIENCE CATALOGUE John Mullen and Harriet Wheelock (Researchers) 1. CONTEXT The aim of this project is to provide a full and complete catalogue of The Dublin Journal of Medical and Chemical Science (DJMS)2 from its establishment in 1832 to 1949. DJMS is the longest established medical periodical in Ireland, and is an invaluable source for the history and development of medicine in Ireland. Amongst its contributors and editors are some of the most famous Irish medical practitioners of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In their survey of the literature on Irish medical history Malcolm and Jones have shown that in the past histories of medicine of Ireland have tended to be narrowly focused on institutions, biography and public health, and to be descriptive in nature (1). This project aims to open up DJMS as a source for medical historians who are developing an analytical and contextual approach to their subject, and will hopefully develop further interest in the history of Irish medical publications.
