1893350682Reports of State Trials New Series HMSO London 1893. Hardcover. Fine. Interest in the trial reverberated across Ireland and Britain igniting fierce debate in Parliament at public gatherings and throughout the press. At its heart lay a bitter divide: some accused O'Connell of diluting the nationalist cause undermining the momentum for repealing the Union with Britain. Others saw him as a principled strategist navigating perilous ground. This expansive trial account captures the political tensions of the moment unfolding in a courtroom arena well-matched to O'Connell's formidable legal intellect. The trial marked a turning point in Irish nationalism weakening O'Connell's leadership and fracturing the Repeal movement. His commitment to peaceful protest lost credibility paving the way for more militant voices like Young Ireland. Though his conviction was overturned the trial exposed the limits of constitutional agitation under British rule and signaled the decline of moral force politics. 491 pages printed in double columns along with 3 platesand indexes.

Treason. Despard Edward Marcus defendant.ABAA

The Trial of Colonel Despard and his Associates for High Treason and a Conspiracy &c. &c. . . . to which is added an Account of their Execution. Published from the London Morning Chronicle.

180319534New-York: Printed by George F. Hopkins at Washington's-Head 1803. First edition. Traces of the old calf spine. Somewhat soiled stained and a bit foxed; a very good copy. Removed pamphlet 8.25 x 5 inches 56 pages. The Anglo-Irish soldier-turned-revolutionary Despard had been the colonial administrator of the British Honduras from 1786 until 1790 when he returned to Britain with his African-Caribbean wife Catherine; once home "In pursuit of compensation he grew increasingly irascible while the combination of enforced idleness and grievance against authority led him to both the London Corresponding Society and the overtly revolutionary United Irishmen. . . . He quickly became an intimate of the leading United Irishman and French secret agent William Duckett and in 1797 was reported to be co-ordinator of a proposed rising in London planned to coincide with one in Ireland and a French landing there. In 1798 Despard was pivotal in negotiations between the United Irishmen and a broader conspiratorial group the United Britons to foment simultaneous English and Irish risings to assist a French invasion. When O'Connor and O'Coighley the principal leaders of the conspiracy were apprehended in February while hiring a boat to take them to France habeas corpus was suspended and further arrests followed. Despard's was predictably among them" OUDNB. Despard was eventually released but taken up again on suspicion of plotting a coup in conjunction with the opening of Parliament and executed. This extensive account of Despard's trial does not appear to be taken from Gurney's separately-published London edition; whether there was a separate London edition in addition to the Morning Chronicle account is not entirely clear.
