Whoever be in the right in this great and confused war of politics whateverelements of greed whatever traits of the bully dishonour both parties in thisinhuman contest your side your part is at least pure of doubt. Yours isthe side of the child of the breeding woman of individual pity and publictrust. If our society were the mere kingdom of the devil as indeed it wearssome of his colours it yet embraces many precious elements and many innocentpersons whom it is a glory to defend. Courage and devotion so common in theranks of the police so little recognised so meagrely rewarded have at lengthfound their commemoration in an historical act. History which will representMr. Parnell sitting silent under the appeal of Mr. Forster and Gordon settingforth upon his tragic enterprise will not forget Mr. Cole carrying thedynamite in his defenceless hands nor Mr. Cox coming coolly to his aid. «
