“20 O’Connell’s lifelong love of the theatre began as a child and it was said that at the age of ten he composed a drama about the fortunes of the house of Stuart.21”
Patrick M. Geoghegan, King Dan Daniel O'Connell 1775-1829: The Rise of King Dan

“Ireland, it must be admitted, has been ungrateful to her great men’. (SPEECH OF DANIEL O’CONNELL, 10 FEBRUARY 1827).”
Patrick M. Geoghegan, King Dan Daniel O'Connell 1775-1829: The Rise of King Dan

“Their views were not shared by two young Irishmen who boarded at Calais, John and Henry Sheares. They entered the cabin one evening when the execution was being discussed and boasted that they had been present to watch it, having bribed two national guardsmen into letting them borrow their uniforms. One Englishman was horrified and exclaimed, ‘But, in God’s name, how could you endure to witness such a hideous spectacle?’ The reply of John Sheares made O’Connell shudder and he never forgot ‘his manner of pronouncing the words: “From love of the cause!”’.”
Patrick M. Geoghegan, King Dan Daniel O'Connell 1775-1829: The Rise of King Dan
