jackabaun n I had like to forget acquainting you that Quigley who was executed at Maidstone in England when the famous Arthur O Connor was apprehended had been a priest of the Town of Dundalk in the north of Ireland, tho not publickly known as such. Thus have those hot headed Republicans lately returned from France imbibed Jacobin principles & brought indelible infamy upon our holy Religion that breaths nothing more than loyalty & obedience to the Laws of God & the constituted authorities of every country. [Consider as compact headnote addition to DNE jackabaun n, where our only evidence is P-1968 and C-1975. It is easy to overlook the familiarity of 18th-early 19th century Nfld with 'currents' at 'home', and the easy drift of terms arising from political/ religious tumults. O'Donel & his loyalist priests would have been preaching about these from the pulpit all the time.] PRINTED ITEM DNE Sup G.M.Story SIC NOV 13. 1987 [check] WK Used I and Sup Used I and Sup 1 Used Sup [see DNE jackabaun] Checked by Sarah Budgell on Tue 07 Apr 2015; Checked by Cathy Wiseman on Mon 06 Jul 2015
