Irish people who inhabit the County Monaghan, from the standpoint of the English colonist in Ireland, filled with hatred towards us, while the Author of these pages writes as an Irishman who loves his country and his people.. The writer makes no apology for writing of a portion of Ireland as an Irishman, and of declaring his intention of so doing.
