Excerpt from The Irish Rebellion of 1641: With a History of the Events Which Led Up to and Succeeded It The following pages, in continuance of the volume devoted to Elizabethan Ulster, aim at carrying on the history of the province up to the time of the Cromwellian Settle ment. In the middle of the path along which the narrative travels stands the Irish rising of 1641. Many writers, in a generous reluctance to lay bare the details of that rising, have skirted the subject and passed on to the wars beyond. Others, whose subject has been the history of the four provinces rather than of one only, have contented them selves with the recital of a few disconnected incidents which occurred during the first nine months the massacre period) of the rising.
