[Footnote 131: Story's Continuation. His narrative is confirmed by the
testimony which an Irish Captain who was present has left us in bad
Latin. "Hic apud sacrum omnes advertizantur a capellanis ire potius in
Galliam."]

[Footnote 133: That there was little sympathy between the Celts of
Ulster and those of the Southern Provinces is evident from the curious
memorial which the agent of Baldearg O'Donnel delivered to Avaux.]

[Footnote 136: There is, Junius wrote eighty years after the
capitulation of Limerick, "a certain family in this country on which
nature seems to have entailed a hereditary baseness of disposition. As
far as their history has been known, the son has regularly improved upon
the vices of the father, and has taken care to transmit them pure and
undiminished into the bosom of his successors." Elsewhere he says of the
member for Middlesex, "He has degraded even the name of Luttrell." He
exclaims, in allusion to the marriage of the Duke of Cumberland and Mrs.
Horton who was born a Luttrell: "Let Parliament look to it. A Luttrell
shall never succeed to the Crown of England." It is certain that very
few Englishmen can have sympathized with Junius's abhorrence of
the Luttrells, or can even have understood it. Why then did he use
expressions which to the great majority of his readers must have been
unintelligible? My answer is that Philip Francis was born, and passed
the first ten years of his life, within a walk of Luttrellstown.]
